    ROUND 2 GAME 3: We have another big time upsetter in 16-seed "Belfast 5G" on a run I don't think anyone saw coming, going up against strong 4-seed "Ben's Mop & Bucket." An interesting matchup with interesting players. pic.twitter.com/xukNwzKgPc

        Are these not in fact two of the *best* tweets?

        The Beto 'calves cramp' tweet is probably the worst thing i've ever read anywhere anytime. Nuclear level cringe

        That was a read head-scratcher but I have to go with the one that makes me want to throw up

        feel like *bad* tweets and *dumb* tweets really aren't that comparable, which complicates the whole endeavor setting aside my longtime personal hobbyhorse, that single-elimination brackets are worthless even for meaningless throwaway jokes

        the 70s Belfast one continues to be an all-timer regardless and I'm annoyed it's barely competing with garden-variety cringe. "calm" "peaceful"

        You're going to have to Jeet this as a Barthesian challenge where you are asked to judge the content but also to judge it based upon its author. Wolf's tweet is so bad and would be bad if it came from a rando, but Shapiro's is hilariously bad because he was once Virgin Ben.
