WOMAN.ca's Top Twitterverse Picks 

altConan O'Brien  (@ConanOBrien)
Notorious for his hilarious 'Twitter Tracker' sketch during his brief stint on The Tonight Show, which included mockery of celebrity tweets, Conan caved to the online addiction and has been cleverly using the website as a virtual stage for his one-liner quips. Conan has amassed over 2 million followers and only follows one Tweeter, Sarah Killen, a girl from Michigan who he chose entirely at random. True story.
WOMAN.CA's Funniest Tweet Pick: "I'm either a) extremely gullible or b) about to eat a sandwich made with organic Spam."  

Jordan Rubin (@JordanRubin) 
Jordan Rubin is an up and coming stand-up comic based in Los Angeles, California. His repertoire is extensive with high profile gigs on shows hosted by Conan O'Brien and Carson Daly, and this year his own half hour stand-up show is featured on Comedy Central. As far as his Twitter fame goes, he was a recommendation by none other than musician John Mayer. Jordan's strong suit is funny word play, puns, and hilariously articulating inappropriate thoughts we all have but never say out loud.
WOMAN.CA Funniest Tweet Pick: "Hostage or not, sometimes it's just nice to be held."

Russell Brand  (@rustyrockets)

Not a very frequent Tweeter, but he's been a little busy in the past year getting married to a pop sensation, filming movies, and hosting Saturday Night Live. If you can forgive a little tardiness, add Russ to your Twitter feed and you won't be disappointed in the bits of hilarity he does manage to post here and there. He has developed a trend of posting 140 character letters to his "mum" complaining of some pseudo problem he's having in his life, and ends each of them with "send condoms".
WOMAN.CA's Funniest Tweet Pick: "I did some of that 'wife-swapping' last night. I now have new iPad."

Sarah Silverman (@SarahKSilverman)
Every bit as lewd online as she is on stage, Sarah Silverman shares too much information about her dog's grooming habits and her thoughts on female genitalia. As usual, though, it's always funny. Bonus Tweeter: Because she's now dating Family Guy writer and producer, Alec Sulkin (@thesulk), and because he's also just as hysterical and off-putting, we'll give him a vote too.
WOMAN.CA's Funniest Tweet Pick: "My dog was throwing up all morning. I had to hold his hair. "

Kim Kardashian (@KimKardashian)
This one is a guilty pleasure and an easy pick. The best part is, she isn't even meaning to be funny, and she's just bloody hilarious.  With "LOL"s and "OMG"s left and right, and the occasional cheesy quote thrown in there, this sexy socialite will get at least a few giggles out of you.
WOMAN.CA's Funniest Tweet Pick: "What would I do without my Glam Squad!?"
