YOUR FAVORITE MTV SHOWS ARE ON PARAMOUNT+

What To Tweet When You Have Absolutely Nothing To Say

You can't be interesting every second of the day -- but there are still plenty of ways to entertain (or annoy) your Twitter followers.

You want to contribute to the endless flow of information on Twitter as often as possible. Sometimes, though, you've simply got nothing to report. Even if you can't speak your mind at the moment (because nothing's on it), here are seven ways to keep those tweets coming...

Question why a trending topic is trending

Are people really still doing that viral fundraiser you participated in and posted about just yesterday? Did that celebrity get arrested AGAIN? Just try to have a basic understanding of what it is you're hashtagging about. (And yes, ISIS was a band first.)

Post inspirational quotes by somebody else

You don't have to know who the source of a quote is as long as it sounds famous and inspirational. And you don't even have to understand what it means as long as you know it's probably not a controversial political statement. On Twitter, you can even just retweet someone else's questionably sourced inspirational quote.

Praise how delicious your meal is

You may not have left the couch today, but at some point you probably ate something. Take lunch or dinnertime as an opportunity to share with the world a photo of the Hot Pocket you just devoured, or a 140-character description of the chalupa that's already on its way to the toilet. Bonus points if you made the food yourself (microwave reheatings count).

Fake attend a concert

Was it sold out before you could get tickets? Take advantage of the fact that photos and videos of any given concert are up on YouTube before the performance is even over by stealing someone's experience and sharing it as your own! Then kick back and open up a beer that didn't cost $9 -- you deserve it.

Use stock photos to go on "vacation"

Similarly, you can find stock photos of pretty much anything these days. Scroll through breathtaking shots of lightning storms or gorgeous city skylines, and profess your awe on your first "visit" to Paris, Botswana or Mars. All without leaving the comfort of your armchair!

Take a Buzzfeed quiz

Have nothing to say, but all the time in the world? Take a Buzzfeed quiz to find out which "50 Shades of Grey" character you are, or what medication you'd be if you were a treatment for a skin disease (lucky you who gets Anastasia and psoriasis cream!). Then share the results with your friends, family and all of your potential future employers.

Cats

And when in doubt...cats.
