Hilarious ‘Tiger King’ Tweets Because You’re As Obsessed As We Are

Did Netflix time the drop of this show perfectly, or what? It seems like they knew all of us we're going to be stuck at home with literally nothing to do except for stress and watch the news again.

If you're fully entrenched in the redneck, kitschy, Oklahoma glory that is Tiger King just like the rest of us, then you know how much of a godsend this show really is. Seriously, Joe Exotic should run for Governor again after all this, because if he can get me through quarantine, then he can get me through anything.

If The Meme Fits...

Two weeks ago, I didn't know that looking at a mini version of a man's mugshot photoshopped into the cat meme would bring me this amount of sheer joy. But here we are.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who was alarmed at where they chose to film this. It's even weirder once you know that the context for this was him discussing his involvement in a conspiracy to take a hit out on Carol.

This man clearly saw his worker was injured and knew that now was as good a time as any to break out the medical jacket. Why? Because it fits the occasion, duh.

You've got to appreciate Joe's business sense here. He's ready to get out in front of this piece of news and spin it into a real positive moment for his customers. Don't worry about the employee in the back crying over there.

To be fair, Joe Exotic is a serious catch because not only does he have tigers, but he's also broke, he won't wear a suit, and he's the gay polygamist icon we never knew we needed. I need to start doing whatever he's doing.

This Show Was A Ride From Start To Finish

I didn't even notice this in the final episode of the series—that's how nuts it got. They also never really explained how someone like Joe could afford to have an MTV-style reality show, but hey, it's all part of the mystery.

I can guarantee you the mysterious "Wynnewood Barber" is none other than these two guys doing it to themselves. No mere mortal can simply create that bleached undercut mullet that Joe's rocking. No, that's got to come directly from the mind and hands of an artist.

Do We Think Joe Has Any Suspicions About What Happened To Carol's Husband?

I'm actually genuinely curious how he roped these two straight guys into marrying him, and above all else, how they actually stayed and listened to him rant and rave about Carol for so many years. I can't imagine that conspiracy theories are a reliable marriage glue.

That's not even getting into his reality star career, dedication to live-streaming and podcasting, his stance on how many wives Doc has, and above all else, his fascination with what happened to those bunnies at Carol's zoo.

I'm not trying to shake up the music industry too bad, but we all listened to "Here Kitty Kitty," and I think it's pretty safe to say we have a rising star on our hands. Look out, Billy Ray.

This is the true irony of the show. I'm still not convinced any of these people are humane enough to own cats, let alone have any real knowledge about cats. At least Joe didn't pretend his joint "zoo" and pizza parlor was anything except weird.

Your kids won't know any better. This trio is more iconic, more recognizable, and covered with more camo and highly questionable tattoos than any country band I know. Plus, apparently, Jon got his teeth fixed.

I'm going to be hearing Carol's chipper Facebook voice in my head for weeks to come now. I'm not sure why or how this became the most memorable quote from the documentary, but it reminds me every day that I should stay away from the bike path that's near my local animal sanctuary.

Did you think you'd live to see the day when those cringe '80s and '90s romantic photoshoot sets would make a massive comeback? Neither did I. I also didn't expect it to happen because of three married dudes in Oklahoma.

I'm not insinuating anything over here, I'm just trying to figure out how she knows something like that. You know what? She's probably just been making a bunch of delicious stir-fries for her and her husband, and that's the reason.

Jeff Lowe swooped in right at the end of the documentary as the villain we kind of all expected. I mean, let's be honest, anyone with a rap sheet like his who makes a living sneaking cubs around in Heys suitcases is up to no good.

Whether or not the makers of Tiger King were actually trying to get us to believe Joe's wild conspiracy theories about Carol or not, the fact of the matter is that the memes about it are hilarious. And that's non-negotiable.

I feel bad for the poor guy getting picked on for his looks, but I get why Joe's a little angry about the whole ordeal. I wouldn't be saying nice things about the dude who basically sent me to jail either.
