Twitter seems to know that it’s a joke, and when Flying Object employs advice from Twitter's user base for comedian Phil Wang to read out loud for last week's Valentine’s Day campaign, the results were only going to be disastrous. 

Wang's plan was to get you a great date and to do so, he went through some tweets that used the hashtag #DatingAdvice on the popular microblogging platform and offered some terrible examples of what advice could look like. Using responses to popular platitudes like “ask questions”, and “be funny”,  Twitter users once again proved that the best comedy is free and less than 280 characters. 

The visual effects overlaid on Wang are hardly special but are all the more hilarious for being terrible. He rides a horse through a field, but the greenscreen outline is still visible. The comedic timing in the short promo is perfection, and nice-guy Wang is an excellent role model for all those celebrating Singles Awareness Day this month.
