Besides gracing the front page of the newspaper since 1901, I also spend time watching Twitter. Here’s some notable tweets from the week.

The New York Times suggested a guacamole recipe that instructed people to use peas.

The Internet lost its ability to even.

@nytimes There is nothing in the world that can be improved by adding peas. Least of all guacamole.

What kind of sick individual thought it would be a good idea to put peas in guacamole?

For the record, guacamole does not need peas. But it does need to be put into my mouth. #nomnomnomnom

So glad to see more rain in Webster Groves. After all, it's been such a dry spring by rainforest standards. #stlwx

If the #USWNT happens to win the #WWC2015, I would like to nominate @beckysauerbrunn for the Golden Ball award. We aren't here without her.

If I was rich I'd pay a hacker to switch everybody's LinkedIn bios with their old MySpace bios for a month
