This past week, a lot of the pop culture jokes have circled around the Oscars, targeting Seth MacFarlane as a mediocre host, or Kristin Chenoweth for her height — or for all the jokes she herself made about it. But then, the rest of the week happened, granting us new material… like IKEA recalling its meatballs because they were found to be made with traces of horse meat, or the Pope finishing out his last day at the Vatican. Between all of these events, the jokesters took to Twitter to let loose.
Check out the 10 funniest pop culture tweets of the week below!
