👔 Classic Dad Joke
A man tells his doctor, 'Doc, help me. I'm addicted to Twitter!'
The doctor replies, 'Sorry, I don't follow you.'
Why This Joke Works
'Don't follow you' is the doctor's way of saying he doesn't understand the problem — but on Twitter, 'follow' is the core platform action. The doctor is simultaneously saying he can't track the argument AND that he's not a follower in the account-action sense. Two rejections delivered in three words.
🎤 How to Tell This Joke
Have the doctor deliver the line with professional concern — as if he genuinely tried to engage and just couldn't get on board. The sincerity of the failed attempt is the joke.
Perfect for:
- •In a social media addiction conversation when someone mentions their screen time
- •At a tech or journalism gathering where Twitter's turbulent existence is already being discussed
- •When someone is explaining why they finally deleted their account
