It's Monday. The day is dragging. The week is dragging. A lot about the world sucks right now. So here's a thoroughly engaging, almost unbelievable Twitter catfish story to make your day better.
The story unfolded on my timeline late Sunday night, and once it got rolling it was glorious. Our protagonist is Twitter user @Mr1738, who you've likely seen come through your feed. He has over 900,000 tweets.
The jokes turned on him on Sunday night when it came to light that he had possibly been conversing with a Twitter catfish for over two years. It's unclear exactly who outed the catfish account—@KendallJayde—but once the truth was out, the flood gates for insane tweets opened like Moses was at the controls.
This was the initial revelation that something was wrong.
Big Daddy E couldn't believe it, but at least he was a good sport.
The old tweets were straight jokes.
By now, the timeline was in pure chaos.
Of course, he remained a good sport through it all.
"Come Snuggle With a Thug" is a new classic.
BURPING. DURING. PHONE. SEX.
Users across Twitter had many questions but no answers. Why not slide in the DMs at a certain point? How have you not FaceTimed? Were you not suspicious? Who was running Kendal's account?
Whether we get these answers or not, this was undoubtedly a night that will live in social media lore.
