Steve Horton: Reskeet with a tweet you still think about

Reskeet with a tweet you still think about

this tweet inspired the best work I will ever produce

I made tortellini and meatballs for my roommate the other day, but forgot the parmesan. I ran in from the kitchen saying "I forgot to dust the wets!" and he made the most grossed-out face ever

Hahahaha, how dare he, the wets simply must be dusted

Dorothy Parker rose from the grave just to salute that tweet.

could someone please explain this one to me?

The guy at the top was the leader of the political party attached to the IRA. The IRA used to carry out bombings all over the UK trying to reunite all of Ireland. So, it's a joke about the first guy knowing people who work with timers. Cause of the bombings

Holy shit lol Familiar w the IRA vaguely but deffo didn't now any members by name

I literally said the four eels thing to myself like two days ago.

I make this joke to myself regularly.

I think about this tweet like every four days and when I'm 95 and can't remember my own siblings' names, the phrase "dust my wets" will still be endlessly rattling around my brain.

The greatest.

I think about this more often than I would like.

I have searched both the old place and tried to use Google to no avail finding the original to cite, but, during Thanksgiving one year a decade or more ago: “Whole Foods is so busy all they have left is gluten.”

I say this each time my wets need dusting

I cannot put cheese on my pasta without reciting this tweet.

I did not save screenshots, sadly.

I dig it.
