I have a dumb sense of humor. No, I mean it. It is d-u-m-b. I live for stupid novelty Twitter accounts. I cry actual tears over stupid novelty Twitter accounts. You know what, though? I don’t feel bad. On the contrary, I feel great about my dumb sense of humor because I am in good company.

I am in the company of a man who is running to be the president of the United States. No, not Donald Trump. He and I aren’t really into the same sorts of Twitter accounts. Bernie Sanders and I, however, both follow @BernieThoughts, which essentially means we are the same person, right?

It’s hilarious. When you read the @BernieThoughts tweets from Viceland’s Spencer Madsen, you can practically hear them in Sanders’ voice.

This one, for instance…

BOILING IS THE MOST DOMINATING FORM OF COOKING—YOU DROWN YOUR FOOD—IN EXTREME HEAT—AND WATCH IT UNTIL ITS DONE — Bernie Thoughts (@berniethoughts) May 27, 2016

…is pretty much the essence of what happens in Sanders’ mind, I think.
