Tangent

"*No tangents. I'm not going on any tangents in this Tweets From the Class. Let's just answer some tweets. No tangents.*"
―Erik
Tangent is the 20th Tweets From the Class. It was released on September 11, 2020.

## Summary

Erik realizes that he forgot to do Tweets From the Class for two years. He promises to answer the questions without going on any tangents. Then someone asks him to do a lesson on videos of GoPros inside of dishwashers. He watches one of them and starts to wonder if its a sex thing. Then he follows a link to Instagram and realizes that Yogadude911 has a bunch of unread messages and interesting things on his feed. He sees someone mention Neon Grizzly so he goes over there and looks at Uncle Dave's new heartshaped lanterns that look like butts.

Erik introduces the sponsor, Blinkist, and talks about it but gets confused. He decides to forget about it and sees a tweet of someone who had a dream about Erik selling heartshaped lanterns that look like butts. Then he looks at a beautiful painting of the Internet Comment Etiquette characters and Robot says he just ordered a new body. Someone tweets about Robot's body so Robot responds. Robot makes insensitive comments about China, so Erik throws a chair at him. Erik concludes the video, but then he realizes that he hasn't actually answered any tweets yet and rewinds time just to throw the chair at Robot again.

He looks at the tweets again, but this time he replies to them. He also does the Blinkist ad again and gets it right. Then he finds some more Instagram messages and sees a woman messaging him so he plays it cool. Finally, he returns to the dishwasher video, leaves a comment, and makes his own that's actually a fart video. He promises another Tweets From the Class in two more years.

*Yeah I bought a horse-sized dildo for your mom and I'm just waiting for her to send me the box it came in so I can spray paint it silver. And when I say horse-sized I mean the size of an actual horse.*

*Had the weirdest fucking dream where I was laughing tears with @commentiquette because he was selling heartshaped lanterns in his store (the joke was that they kinda looked like butts) and then I bought it off him for €4.50, including shipping*
- @swishfilet

*I had a dream @TedCruz got marvel-movie-jacked and made a sex tape w/ Elmo and everyone loved it bc he looked amazing how can you be mad at a guy who can get Elmo off? Anyway it ended with me waking up covered in nightmare eels and that's why you never go fishing alone in florida*

*I revel in this haircut. I believe it protects us now during our most vulnerable hour. Someday LinkusMinkus you will lead my etiquette army into battle and in your hand will be my jizz sword: A blade forged by a thousand kizzes folded to a precise point, jizzed and hardened (1/2)**...smelted and hammered, continuously added to by countless generations of comment etiquette warriors. Do no EVER put it in the dishwasher. But a dishwasher does help make the sword. But it is yours my son. May you only ever use it in self defense and sometimes in self offense.*

*Hello gentlemen how are you doing*
- a woman

*Diaper full! DIAPER FULL! PLEASE GET THIS DIAPER OFF OF ME AND THROW IT IN THE GOD DAMN OCEAN WHERE SEAHORSES CAN EAT IT*
- Erik

*How much money to put me inside this thing? I’ve watched through thousands of GoPro inside dishwasher videos, and this is the dishwasher I want to be my tomb. You can put me in there overnight, for a week, it doesn’t matter so long as I’m gettin cleaned up like a dirty little dish. I’ll sign whatever waiver you need to dishwash my whole body while I’m scrunched up and screaming in there. I love the way those top jets shoot water down, and the bottom jets shoot water up. It’s exactly how I pictured it in my head. Anyway you can blow all the loads you want to these dishwasher videos but you’ll never activate the discharge pump of truth until you accept Christ into your heart and it’s like I always say, if your water’s hard then so am I brother.*
