100+ of the World’s Most Clever and Funny Twitter Bios

Last Updated on January 17, 2020 78 Comments

Why on earth am I writing about funny Twitter bios? Well, why on earth are you reading about them?... Bingo! 😬🤪

You’d think running a business is a serious matter…

After all, you’ve got mountains to move, audiences to conquer, competition to leave in the dust… No time to dilly-dally!

Buuuuuuut… what’s the fun in that, right? 🥳😉

Who says you can’t take over the online world and clown around on the side (just in case that online business thing doesn’t pan out 😱🤐)?

With that said, Ana Hoffman used to be all business.

Take a look at my former Twitter bio, for instance. Doing all the right things: branding, hashtags, ego…

ana hoffman not so funny twitter bio

A dime a dozen, in other words.

Life is too short to be one of ‘the rest of them’, don’t you think?

And so I caught the “funny Twitter bio” bug…

You’ll see my new… funny or not? you be the judge!… Twitter bio at the end of the deck, but will definitely enjoy plenty of chuckle-worthy bios along the way – the very same Twitter bios that inspired me (and gave me a lot of ideas to copy – THANK YOU!)

How to Craft a One-of-a-Kind Twitter Bio

Inspired?

GREAT!

The following Twitter bio tips might go against the grain of conventional Twitter wisdom, but that’s exactly what you want – be unique, bold, and MEMORABLE.

  • Be short. 160 characters short, to be more precise.
  • Who says you have to use all the characters? Shorter, to the point bios stand out more.
  • Hook them from the start. Don’t save the best for last; the last might never come.
  • Perfect platform for “10 3 things you never knew about me”.
  • Forget about keywords. The only people who might find you that way are spammers.
  • Clever up your Twitter bio by cleverly using the “Location” space for even more clever tidbits (notice how some fun Twitter folk did it in the slide deck above).
  • Rethink linking to your home page. In fact, you might want to link to a page that’s more suitable for your Twitter followers. For instance, at Traffic Generation Café it might be something like this: Social Media Traffic 101 or Promote Your Business.
  • Have a multi-interest disorder? Have multiple Twitter accounts. I do. And Tweet Adder makes it easy to run them. Have a different bio tailored to each one.

Twitter Bio Marketing Takeaway

1. Have one.

2. Be unique.

3. Tweet the ish out of this post. Cause, ya know, Twitterers must tweet! 

Life's too short to be one of 'the rest of them', don't you think? 🤔🧐🤩 Stick it to the boring by reinventing your Twitter bio!Click To Tweet

See you on the “funny” side!

P.S.  Thought it might be nice to add a few newly redesigned/redefined/reinvented Twitter bios, inspired by this post.

    “Why on earth am I writing about funny Twitter bios? Well, why on earth are you reading about them?… Bingo! 😬🤪” this got me rolling on the floor and so did the bios. Some people really get creative when it comes to bios. I, on the other hand, have no clue what to put in my bio.

    One think I’ve noticed in everyone’s Twitter profile is that they’re trying to introduce themselves too much and talking about them in their bio, while It’s not all about you. One should let others know what they can do for them, of course keeping it short works best.

    Checkout mine Ana, and suggestions will be appreciated. Here’s the copy of my Twitter bio:
    “Discharged from the FC Barcelona Football club. kidding. Soccer lover, I blog and run the guide to blogging community. Start your on today (And then link to my ultimate guide to starting a blog post).”

    Professional Twitter bios are so boring.If you are looking to get traffic to your own site from Twitter, then you need to be unique in some way . Everyone knows (well, maybe not spammers) that sharing useful and helpful stuff on social sites is the key to success and that used to be a way to stand out from the crowd.

    I really enjoyed this post, so I shared it on Twitter, Google+ and Pinterest.

HBSR helps you make money from home in your civies. ‘ and my publishing bio reads: ‘The award winning ‘arse-kicker’ of publishing.

    Hey Ana,

    This made me actually laugh out loud a couple times. Very funny. It makes sense why more and more people are going for a funny bio than a professional one. The humor makes you much more approachable and human.

    I always try to keep my bios professional yet personal, but I think it might be time for me to go back and write a much more funny bio.

    Anyway, awesome post as always 🙂

    Ana,

    A little disappointed with this update being I expected by now you’d be sharing posts we can put up on our big screens TV’s!

    Guess I’ll have to guts it up and view this on the pc 🙂

    Reading your posts are entertaining and informative and entertaining is a universal language you tend to use well!

    Thanks again for the humor and time it took to ‘gather’ all this!

    Speaking just for myself, I believe if you can’t have fun while doing something, why do it?
    Laughter besides a great sedative for stress, can also motivate since it seems to make it ‘all’ worthwhile!

    Stay fun, be well and keep us motivated 🙂

            And I totally understand the time thing. Absolutely. I think if any entrepreneur doesn’t at least occasionally lose track of time, they’re doing something wrong because they aren’t enjoying life enough. (But I’m weird like that.)

    Hey Ana,

    I enjoyed looking through these slides, and wow must that have taken time to put together and align just right, unless I’m missing something lol

    My bio has a slight sense of humor while retaining a bio-like format:

    “Email marketer. Blogger. Avid coffee drinker. Fitness freak. I play guitar and I think I’m funny.”

    It’s due for an update sometime soon, as with my Gravatar. I do link to my homepage, which I will be doing more often when I have a dedicated landing page (on my main domain) for future growth.

    Thanks for the post!

    Can’t think of one of those that I would NOT follow back. Clearly reflected in some of the bios was the “don’t worry I’m not a social media guru” theme. That should be a good warning right there. But high on my list of people I don’t follow back are those who tell they are MLM experts and the like. But at least it was good enough of them to warn me that they are the “in-your-face” type. Now to review my own bio.
