35 of the Funniest Tweets from Friday, May 23, 2025

Dolly Parton won’t be clocking back in for the 9 to 5 reboot, but the country music legend won’t necessarily be a stranger around the water cooler. 

The multi-hyphenate star explained that while she and her castmates are “older now” and “not gonna look that good on the big screen,” she’d happily lend her musical talents to Jennifer Aniston’s remake of her 1980 screwball comedy. “I said, ‘You’re more than welcome to use my song ‘9 to 5,’’” Parton also offered to “rework” the original track or create “some additional songs” for the film.

Elsewhere in the multiverse, Rick and Morty co-creator Dan Harmon explained some of the psychological inspiration behind his series, revealing that the show’s parallel universes all harken back to a famous academic debate: nature versus nurture. “Who are you? What makes you?” he speculated during a recent chat with io9. “Is it a bunch of hormones? Is it your pancreas? Is your brain a pilot in a Voltron that you’re steering around? Is it because your parents were mean to you?” 

We may not have the answers to those existential questions, but there is one thing we know for certain: These tweets would be hilarious in any universe. Today’s funniest include those about the strange horniness of early iPhone games, a Presidential take on Jurassic Park and a refreshing glass of “Spite.”
