#BeatAkron

Let’s be honest: I’m not as nice as Sean over at Troy Nunes is an Absolute Magician.  Sean diligently aggregates all the “Beat” hashtag material and delicately constructs a listing of the participation.

Me?  Well, I’m a little more discerning.  To determine which hashtag cracks deserved recognition, I followed the following procedure for inclusion:

  1. Preference was given to cracks that I wrote.  If you don’t like that, the resolution is simple: just be funnier than me.
  2. Preference was then given to legitimately interesting cracks.
  3. Preference was then given to anything remotely creative and not derivative of cracks that I or others have made in the past.  I refuse to acknowledge cracks that just follow the format of cracks that I or others have told before.  Joke stealing is consistent with arson in my book.
  4. Finally, preference was given to earlier cracks as I have things to do tonight that do not involve the Internet.

With that said, here are the best #BeatAkron cracks of the day:
