- @NeedADebitCard: Tweeting a picture of your credit or debit card is a bad idea, nevertheless plenty of people seem to be doing it. This account ReTweets people who post such pictures as a means of teaching those less-than-intelligent purveyors of the Twittersphere a lesson.
Note: I blurred out the credit card information from the Tweet to be nice. -
@PicturelessPins is exactly what it sounds like. Pictures posted on social network Pinterest are represented as humourous text-only descriptions.

@textinstagram is not nearly as good as Pictureless Pintetest, but it necessary to make note of its Instagram counterpart. Text-Only Instagram has text representations of those photos your friends post with cheesy photo filters.

@Kantye_West: The Tweets of Kanye West are somehow combined with 18th Century Enlightenment Philosopher Immanuel Kant.

@oldmansearch consists of what are supposedly the search queries of an 81 year-old man named Norman who was told that Twitter is how you search Google. The account is obviously not really the searches of an old man of course, but it is still hilarious.

@DRUNKHULK is that classic green Marvel Comics character that you wouldn’t normally like if he was angry. Only this Twitter version of the Hulk talks in the character as if he had a few to many at the bar while he critiques pop-culture, celebrities, news, and literature.

@RealTimeWWII tweets the events of World War 2 as if it were 1940 all over again (and there is such a thing as social media). This one isn’t so funny, but it is kind of a quirky concept.
As well as promising USA an empire, official Fascist paper Popolo d’Italia says America would “commit suicide” by joining Britain’s in war. — WW2 Tweets from 1940 (@RealTimeWWII) October 9, 2012

Hey great list, I think the @DearDudez account is also a really funny one!
That’s a brilliant list!
There is an account called ‘On This Day’, that Tweets about events in sci-fi films. What makes it stand out from the rest is that it covers fictional events that would take place on the same date.
An example may be: June 21st Today Skynet is turned on for the first time, Prometheus passes Jupiter.
I can’t seem to locate that account. Care to share the twitter handle?
Certainly, its: @OnThisSciFiDay
Their Google + site is: http://plus.google.com/b/113943902713512235840/113943902713512235840/posts
I would suggest in the future following @ILuvHotStr8Boyz. Tweets some pretty funny nonsense at celebrities.
Follow @DamnLolPic
No one follows them but they post the most halarious pictures
