27 of the Funniest Tweets from the Week of October 9, 2023

Ah, a week of grudges and old grievances. First, Martin Scorsese took a lesson in slang with his daughter Francesca on TikTok. In order to guide him in the right direction toward guessing what “slept on” meant, Francesca described his polarizing 1983 film The King of Comedy as being “slept on,” which sent the Oscar-winning director on a trip down memory lane, recalling when the film was dubbed the “flop of the year.” 

Then, after Chevy Chase appeared on an episode of WTF with Marc Maron last month and claimed that he left Community because it “wasn’t funny enough” — and ultimately, beneath him — former co-star Joel McHale fired back, telling PEOPLE that nothing was keeping the divisive SNL alum chained to the show and that the feelings of animosity were mutual.

In-between all of these grudges and grievances, we’ve thankfully had some comedy on the timeline to lighten the mood. This week’s funniest tweets include those about Ben Affleck in his natural state, a question for Faith Hill and a jester on the spectrum.
