What’s the longest you’ve gone in the name of a terrible joke? A few days, a week? Well, Twitter is well known for having some pretty dedicated comedians. But no more so than Marcus Lepage, who appears to have waited seven years to make one amazing joke. Until recently, this was Lepage’s first and only tweet:
Going to sleep
— Marcus (@MarcusLepage) April 27, 2009
But this week he broke his silence, and came back with this tweet.
Fuck, I slept in
— Marcus (@MarcusLepage) April 12, 2016
Understandably, Twitter was impressed with his commitment to the joke.

And of course, after telling the best joke in Twitter history, he quickly went back into retirement.
Long day! Going back to sleep
— Marcus (@MarcusLepage) April 13, 2016
Twitter wished him well and i’m sure we’ll see Marcus again in 2023.
@MarcusLepage see you in a few years
