Everybody fancies themselves as some sort of wizard that can conjure up laughter by a few strokes of a keyboard, but only a few tweeters are truly worthy enough to have all of their witticisms transmitted to you, the ever busy comedy fan trying to navigate through an increasingly congested internet. Every Friday we’ll make your life a little bit easier by introducing you to an individual that you might not know about who consistently makes us laugh and momentarily forget that the other days of the week exist.
(If you are reading this from an RSS feed, jump on over to the website where you can actually view the tweets for an optimal level of enjoyment.)

Wow.
Thankfully, Twitter was around to either snark away the anxieties we continued to develop over the events of this past year or to empathize with them. And be funny while doing it.
To celebrate the laughs, let us look back at the very best* tweets from everyone featured on Follow Friday in 2012.
