Twitter has its own unique vibe and energy. Any of you Pandas who have ever been on the platform probably know what we’re talking about—the platform is unlike any other social media site. For better or for worse… usually both!
Comedian Trevor Lewis, who is from Illinois but is now based in Los Angeles in California, created ‘The Best and Worst Of Twitter 2’ as a way to show the highest highs and lowest lows that the platform has to offer. The Facebook group has amassed nearly 175k members since being founded in September 2021. And its popularity is all because of its relatable content and the candid tweets that it features.
Scroll down for the best of the worst and the best of the best, dear Pandas. Hold on to your hats because it’s a wild ride full of unexpected twists, turns, laughs, and groans, dear Pandas. These tweets are bound to restore your faith in humanity, potentially make you lose it again, only to restore it again.
Bored Panda got in touch with the creator of the group, Trev, and he was kind enough to answer our questions. He told us all about the inspiration behind the group, its success, and why Twitter is how it is. We also reached out to talk about Twitter with comedy writer and author Ariane Sherine, who has been actively using the social media platform for over a decade now. So she's got a pretty good handle on the site's pulse and atmosphere. Read on for both interviews.

Every employee in a nursing home should be a resident for at least one week. Things would change.
'The Best and Worst Of Twitter 2' wasn't the first group that Trev had created. He's had a lot of experience and runs quite a few groups. "I had created some other Facebook groups before, including the very first Baby Yoda meme group, 'Baby Yoda’s Strong Force Memes," he said, adding that the Baby Yoda group (sadly) no longer exists.
"I began to notice a lot of the posts people submitted were just screenshots of Tweets, so I thought to myself, 'I should make a group that is dedicated entirely to Tweets!'" Trev told us that's when things clicked for him.
"I think the group is successful because people are very curious to see what everyone online is talking about, but most of the time they only personally use one or two apps. Nobody has the time or energy to be extremely active on every site. Our group offers Facebook users an easy way to see the biggest moments from Twitter without having to spend a bunch of time scrolling through another app, or even open an account," he said that his group is like a bridge to Twitter for those people on Facebook.
RELATED:
Trev believes that Twitter, as a whole, has some of the brightest people online using it. At the same time, the way the platform works can also make some folks aggressive. "Like any social media site, Twitter’s algorithm can inspire people to be more aggressive and controversial for attention. However, I do think it is the funniest and smartest social media site overall. The trending topics encourage people to discuss the top news stories of the day, which gives it more substance," he told us.
"It also is the app public figures use most, which means it allows regular citizens to directly share their voice with and criticize people in power more often than other sites."
Trev opened up to Bored Panda that he's originally from a small, rural town in Illinois, called Canton. Eventually, he moved to LA to work with audio/video production in the entertainment industry. He's also a standup comedian and internet personality.
"My collection of Facebook groups, which we call Trevbook, currently has over 250,000 members in total. 'The Best and Worst Of Twitter' is the largest. I also just started a podcast and YouTube channel called 'Trev Show' where I talk about many of the same stories that are trending on Twitter."

If we follow this logic, then my love of sci-fi and my collection of additional books from childhood until now would make me some kind of alien. Only question remaining is what kind. Klingon? Borg? Yeerk? Hork Bajir? Goa'uld? Asgard? V'ornn? A Grey? A Grey from a different universe?

I'm a small red train that nearly explodes, a woolly mammoth powering a carousel, a skeleton detective, an environmental activist in the DRC, the Mockingjay, a fraud survivalist, clumsy and bandaged, eating Lobster Thermometer, blown up all over London, a Hitler-thwarting gorilla, hiding in your attic to eat burnt toast, under your bed and floorboards and pipes and soil and rock, going on a quest to kill an evil wizard in the most half-assed way possible, the most infinitely cool guy in the universe, a sea slug 100 million years in the future, the entire film crew of Walking With Dinosaurs, Asterix, hiding for you to find me in my book series, and a Slavic guy who makes those stereotype maps that make you exhale through your nose.

so books that tells kids to pick a gender are not making kids trans? OK!
RedMarbles 3 years ago
They're just telling kids it's ok if they are. Better outcome than for the kids receiving nothing but the message that they're supposed to conform to being a certain prescripted way based on their genitals. Those kids are far more likely to attempt or actually commit suicide before they even reach adulthood. Is it really that upsetting for such kids to not conform to the expectations of those who feel uncomfortable with them that you'd rather they live in agony so acute they try to kill themselves?

Comedy writer and social media expert Ariane shared her insights about Twitter as a platform. "I think Twitter attracts more intelligent and witty users than other social media networks because it's primarily text-based and lends itself to brevity, concision, and humor. People also seem to be a lot more cynical on there, and angrier too. The character limit differentiates it from every other network, enabling you to read posts more quickly. I personally love it and am on there all the time. Feel free to follow me at @ArianeSherine!" she said.
Ariane told Bored Panda that Twitter "is definitely darker" than other social media sites. However, she thinks that makes it more genuine. "I kind of like that though, it's real," she said.

"To avoid getting canceled, just steer clear of hot button topics like race, etc, because it's very easy to inadvertently say the wrong thing, and try not to make any jokes that could be misconstrued as your genuine opinion, even if you're just being ironic."
Ariane told us that she's been on Twitter for over 13 years now and is a huge fan of the site.
"The positives for me are: meeting great people I otherwise wouldn't have, learning about fun trends such as Wordle which would otherwise have passed me by, keeping up with news stories and hot takes on them, discovering cool accounts like @fesshole, getting DM'd with work opportunities, going viral with jokes," she said, adding that it's also the place to meet great journalists like yours truly.

Trev’s Facebook group is very inclusive and he wants everyone to feel safe. Any bullying or degrading comments of any kind are now allowed.
What’s more, the group greatly frowns upon any misinformation, conspiracy theories, and fake news. Posting anything like that can get you banned not only from this Facebook group but from all of the ones linked to it.
Comedian Trev is very right to be so strict about misinformation. In this day and age, it’s easier than ever to spread it, whether intentionally or otherwise.

Previously, Bored Panda spoke to news and social media expert Mike Sington, from LA, about why people tend to lie on the internet. He believes that part of the answer is that it’s done for the sake of attention.
"Getting clicks and amassing followers on social media is how success is defined. For many, it becomes addictive, and the more attention your social media gets, it actually creates an adrenaline rush," social media expert Mike told Bored. "The monster feeds itself."
Meanwhile, physicist Steven Wooding from the UK told Bored Panda that the first thing you should do if you doubt a fact or piece of news is to use trusted fact-checking services. Some of these include PolitiFact.com and FactCheck.org.
"I think that while reading the news every day, we should never forget that the world is a complicated place. The events that occur are usually the result of multiple processes rather than a single cause," he said that there’s rarely a simple answer to complicated issues. And we shouldn’t expect to find simple solutions.

"If a theory explaining an aspect of reality has monocausal tendencies (or even shamelessly presents itself as monocausal), it is highly likely to be wrong. We should develop a habit of thinking about this every time we hear a theory supposed to explain some 'hidden truth' to us. Then, if you think to yourself, 'Wow, that sounds pretty monocausal!'—it's a sign you should do your research,” Steven told Bored Panda.

"The world is complicated: many processes are going on that we don't have time to follow, don't have the knowledge to explore, don't have an awareness of their existence. Conspiracy theories are usually simple: in their worldview, one cause determines everything (the world is ruled by lizard people, etc.)," he said why some people fall for conspiracies.

Anybody else sprinkle their tumeric and be like: this golden powder is that which would give me eternal blessings from ancient gods!!! Just me? ok.
"They present (at least at first) a clear and lucid vision of the world—often based on Manichean [good vs. evil] opposition. They give the false impression of thoroughly understanding and explaining the world in a simple way," he said.
"Studies prove that people who believe in one conspiracy theory are much more likely to believe in another. In this sense, I think that every conspiracy theory is wrong. They differ only in scale, but they are all part of the same mechanism."

Wasn’t the issue that people were upset because she transitioned during adulthood, meaning her body had already grown up/formed structurally male in musculature and skeleton, and thus on average she is naturally stronger/faster than the other female swimmers?
