As part of the never-ending quest to bring you University of Kentucky news in the most ridiculous manner possible, I comb the Twitter-verse each week for the funniest, oddest, and sometimes, nearly illegible tweets from your favorite players and personalities. Basically, I read Twitter so you don’t have to. Without further ado, here are the best tweets of the week.
I missed you, too. I’m getting verklempt, so let’s get going before we have to break out the Puffs Plus Lotion.
Just in time for Father’s Day:
S/o to everyone who daddy got his pimp cup in a clear case on the mantle above the fireplace. (Pops replaced his son GameBall w/a pimp cup)

Today in Nerlens Noel tributes, we have the ubiquitous Toaster Strudel homage:

I wonder how many icing packets that took?
BABY DORON LAMB:

Brad Calipari caught Keyla Snowden “creepin” on the Dominican Republic players the other day and totally called her out on it.
@bradcal5 creeping?? That’s a negative. And don’t be so shy to speak lol !!
— Keyla♥Snowden (@KeylaSnowden) June 11, 2012
Brad, you may be the coolest 15-year-old ever, but to see that Keyla was creepin, you had to be creepin yourself.
Oh, Brian Long. It’s okay, we all make typos:
@Sdon3gan7 vocabulary and extremely are both more then 7 words. Get your facts straight.

Sam Malone approves of Anthony Davis’ weight gain:
I see you @AntDavis23 flexing your muscles on sportcenter lol. Finally put on some lbs bro
— Sam Malone (@SamMaloneuk13) May 30, 2012
Suddenly that supersize jug of Weight Gainer 2000 doesn’t seem like such a bad Christmas present, does it?
Quick! Name all of Twany Beckham‘s rings in chronological order:
Ladies and gentlemen, Alex Poythress is on campus (apologies if this has already been posted):

Chicago: Patrick Patterson is a fan.

Jodie Meeks had a tough decision to make this week:
Jus got done Workin out..Waffle House or IHOP??
— Jodie Meeks (@Jmeeks20) June 12, 2012
Well done, Jodie, well done.

You know what’s sad? Nazr probably has a very valid question if he wants to send his kid to play baseball at UK:
Dear NCAA,If I pay my 6yr old son $5 for home runs, will it effect his amateur status???LolSigned Concerned Dad
— Nazr Mohammed (@NazrMohammed) June 13, 2012
Shagari Alleyne is back! After almost a year of inactivity, Shagari returned to Twitter to clear up some things:
They said I stopped playing ball and picked up the mic.Lmao…Smh…such dummies
— Shagari Alleyne (@ShagBoogieBrown) June 4, 2012
I know I got bars but damn.I’m a ball player first and foremost
— Shagari Alleyne (@ShagBoogieBrown) June 4, 2012
Why can’t I do both?#AtTheSameDamnTime
— Shagari Alleyne (@ShagBoogieBrown) June 4, 2012
On another note, shout out to the blue grass state.#BBN what’s good?
— Shagari Alleyne (@ShagBoogieBrown) June 4, 2012
You’re good, Shagari. And don’t listen to the haters. #DoBothAtTheSameTime
You know what makes Josh Hopkins even more awesome? The fact that he, too, loves “Toots the Driving Cat”–apologies, Toonces:
Want to do your part to help the football team? Help Josh Clemons and his roommate Maxwell Smith find a kitchen table and chairs:
Does anyone who where I can get a kitchen table and chairs for a good price?
— Josh Clemons (@J_Clem20) June 9, 2012
Look! It’s Wesley Woodyard and Keenan Burton!
Most of the groomsmen @Djnine6 @keenanburton @abs4summer twitter.com/WoodDro52/stat…
— Wesley Woodyard (@WoodDro52) May 28, 2012
Why didn’t Mr. TT think to have them as his groomsmen?!
Perry Stevenson is such a gentleman:
I’ll pretend I didn’t see that hot girl trip in her heels to make her feel better… but believe I’ll lmao when I know she can’t see me.
— Perry Stevenson (@PSteve2122) June 5, 2012
I can only imagine how hard it was for Jorts to turn down the Canadian tuxedo for the Belmont:
Aww, I’m so glad they’re “Twitter official” now:
Just had lunch with my baby @KristenPflum. So happy she is back. Missed her like crazy.
— Ravi (@ravimoss) June 13, 2012
Walter McCarty posted this gem:

Doron took “Tweet that Makes You Go Aww” by a landslide, but what about “Avatar that Makes You Go Aww”? Obviously, it goes to Chuck Hayes, whose new avatar is a sickeningly adorable picture of him and his son in awesome hats:
I think we can all learn something from the “Bookie Tweet of the Week”:
It’s so much u can do web u wake but first off make sure u think tha man above for lettin u wake up.. 3 Coolllllll..
— Bookie aka Flya (@bookie3_FLYA) June 14, 2012

Finally I can stop refreshing KSR looking for this.
June 14th, 2012 at 9:42 pm
Jeff Goodman doesn’t think Noel will ever play for UK.
June 14th, 2012 at 9:43 pm
So glad Nerlen’s representing UK with that rap video posted on here earlier.
Let’s see – “Criminal” logo – marijuana leaf – celebration of gangs, frequent profanity and use of the N-word and pants on the ground.
June 14th, 2012 at 9:48 pm
3 how about you go to that post and talk about it? Afraid no one will read it? No one cares about your opinion anyway, old_fart
June 14th, 2012 at 10:02 pm
4) I care as well. We do not need that trash image here.
June 14th, 2012 at 10:07 pm
It’s “Toonces” the Driving Cat – not Toots – just saying.
June 14th, 2012 at 10:10 pm
It’s about integrity. Too many UK fans tossed that out the window when Cal arrived.
Blind UK fans will ignore any and all as long as they are ordered to by Lord Cal. Not me!
I’m a Kentuckian – have long loved this program – but it’s corrupted right now and needs to be cleansed. I really miss Tubby. He was PURE CLASS!!!!!!
June 14th, 2012 at 10:19 pm
Good grief, 7, you a Pentecostal preacher by any chance? 5 you’re probably old_school just changing your screen name. If you frequent this site you know dude does nothing but b*tch and moan about Cal. If you are actually 2 people, how about you go have a private chat bc no one else on KSR cares what old_turd has to say.
June 14th, 2012 at 10:22 pm
lol @nazr
June 14th, 2012 at 10:25 pm
7- Cal=NCAA Title and 2 Final Fours in 3 years.
There is a reason Tubby is at Minnesota. I can still remember hearing he went to Minnesota and my first thought was the T-Wolves not the Golden Gophers.
June 14th, 2012 at 10:31 pm
THANK THE LORD FOR TWEET BEAT
4,8) Don’t feed the trolls.
June 14th, 2012 at 10:33 pm
Im not a tubby hater but anyone that would trade the for now is either truly too old to know better or a troll. Moron might fit as well. Cleansing? If you hate it that bad just go away bro!
June 14th, 2012 at 10:34 pm
11 has a good point.
June 14th, 2012 at 10:36 pm
#7 Let’s see. Cal players go to class after the season to help UK with APR even though most don’t when they declare for the draft, even though it really means nothing to them. Thelayers he’s brought in have had ZERO of the court issues. My only direct contact with them was with Big Cuz and Bledsoe( The ones supposed to be the most Thugged out) they both took the time to sign my 7 year olds cast and were very nice to me and my kids. Tubby had team turmoil need I say more. The kid made a rap Viideo big damn deal. The facts just don’t back up your statements you most be a trolling Card.
June 14th, 2012 at 10:41 pm
Noel is just a typical, memphis, street thug type player. Cal would take a kid in prison if he thought he could play. Actually, I think he has.
June 14th, 2012 at 10:45 pm
Go troll mother OKC message board for using “Ni**as in Paris” as the entrance music. Oh no, jay z says the n word and f word and is accused of being illuminati. Dumb white folks think he’s the anti-Christ.
June 14th, 2012 at 10:50 pm
Jay z sucks balls. West side.
June 14th, 2012 at 10:56 pm
What is Meeks even talking about??? He’s from Norcross which is just outside Atlanta. He know’s it’s a Ga State law that a Waffle House’s be located at least every mile down here in metro Atlanta. IHOP… really? That’s like drinking a pepsi a down here.
Best tweet was Boyd’s. Swimming in you? We refer to swimming in you as the same as get get getting some down here!!!!
June 15th, 2012 at 12:14 am
Mark Pope is an assistant coach at BYU.
June 15th, 2012 at 12:33 am
Thank you MrsTT…this was sorely missed
June 15th, 2012 at 9:15 am
Come on, Marcus McClinton is in that photo with Wes and Keenan!! Show him some love.
June 15th, 2012 at 9:32 am
Hey Old_School. Tubby was classy, but he was also out of touch (therefore couldn’t recruit). Kids see a recruit in a rap video and they think “What can I do to have that?”
There’s a cost of being at the top, it’s called FAME.
June 15th, 2012 at 9:53 am
I believe that the other 2 groomsmen are JD Craigman and Marcus McClinton, also former UK football players
June 15th, 2012 at 11:58 am
15 – what a pretentious and ignorantly racist comment. If Noel was a white guy strumming a guitar in a willie nelson music video you’d prolly rub one out. But since hes a black kid in a rap video hes a thug and Cal is a slimeball right? Slow your roll Troll
