It is amazing what one Tweet can start. A solitary Christian writer decided it would be fun to start a hash tag #AddaWordRuinaChristianBook, where the goal is simply to add a word to a title of a Christian book and make it seem hilarious, and perhaps just plain ridiculous. It is a lot of light fun, and at one point I believe the hashtag was the top trending meme on Twitter in the USA.
For some of you, this post may just be one more reason not to join Twitter. Others of you, like me, will find that some of these quite literally make you laugh out loud!
There have been thousands more of these, but here are the ones I like. If you want to join in the trouble, then why not retweet your own favorites which you can do right here on this page, or write some of your own:
