We always knew Taylor Swift has a wonderful, self-deprecating sense of humor, but we didn’t realize just how adept at making fun of herself Swifty is until she joined Tumblr.
Yes, Taylor on Tumblr is the antidote to all the comment board hate, news about violent NFL players, and general asshattery that seems to dominate the Internet these days.
Take this perfect exchange, for example:
Recently, a fan described Tay-Tay as, “That aunt that tires to be hip with the young’ns and ‘with the times’ and asks what does bae stand for and then after you tell her she stars calling everything bae even the lamp next to the couch.”
Instead of getting offended or pointing out the fan’s desperate need for a lesson in punctuation, Taylor responded:
“HEY YOU HAVEN’T SEEN THE LAMP NEXT TO MY COUCH AND I WILL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT IT IS, IN FACT, VERY MUCH BAE #YOU’RE RIGHT THOUGH”
Basically, Taylor’s been killing it in the comedy department, lately. First, the “Shake It Off” video left us with dozens of hilarious GIFs:
Then she posted an epic ode to fall online that both skewered and celebrated pumpkin spice mania.
If this whole music thing doesn’t work out, she may be able to fall back on a career in stand-up.
