Our favorite, funniest tweets from Super Bowl XLVII

super bowl tweetsSocial media and sports go hand in hand – and the Super Bowl is no exception. This year we were treated to more than a few dramatic, hilarity-inducing moments, and some of the best brains behind Twitter took to their keyboards to reflect, share, and shame. Here are some of the best reactions to the game, halftime show, and commercials (and everything else in between). 

To infinity and Beyoncé,

Mrs. Carter took to the stage in all her glory for the halftime show, bringing back Destiny’s Child with her. It was a moment no one who was in middle school some 10 odd years ago will ever forget. 

All of the lights (are out)

In case you didn’t hear, the lights went out for awhile during the Super Bowl. Twitter comedians are still praising their respective gods for the wealth of opportunity it gave then. 

 

Puppy Bowled over

Everyone who loves puppies (which is just about everyone) and couldn’t be bothered to watch the actual game tuned into this event, which has many, many fans. And a kitten-fronted halftime show. Watch yo’self, Bey.

 

Commercialization

Some deep thoughts on the ads. 

 

Brotherly love

Of course one of the biggest stories of the game was the fact that brothers Jim and John Harbaugh faced off. It’s simultaneously heartwarming… and gives ample opportunity to make fun of them. 

 

It was so Raven 

The 8th-grade girl in all of us is loving this.

How to create multiple profiles on a Facebook account
A series of social media app icons on a colorful smartphone screen.

Facebook (and, by extension, Meta) are particular in the way that they allow users to create accounts and interact with their platform. Being the opposite of the typical anonymous service, Facebook sticks to the rule of one account per one person. However, Facebook allows its users to create multiple profiles that are all linked to one main Facebook account.

In much the same way as Japanese philosophy tells us we have three faces — one to show the world, one to show family, and one to show no one but ourselves — these profiles allow us to put a different 'face' out to different aspects or hobbies. One profile can keep tabs on your friends, while another goes hardcore into networking and selling tech on Facebook Marketplace.

Facebook's Feed is designed to recommend content you'd most likely want to see, and it's based on your Facebook activity, your connections, and the level of engagement a given post receives.

But sometimes you just want to see the latest Facebook posts. If that's you, it's important to know that you're not just stuck with Facebook's Feed algorithm. Sorting your Facebook Feed to show the most recent posts is a simple process:
