'I believe in America again!' Jonathan Chait inspires BEST troll of the YEAR by asking 'med types' about eye injury

Mental note. If you are capable of taking a selfie of a wound and tweeting about it odds are you do NOT need to go to the ER.

Second mental note, never set yourself up for the ultimate trolling in Twitter history by asking Twitter about ANYTHING important.

Should you cut your bangs? Fine to ask Twitter.

Should you go to the ER? Eh, pass.

Luckily Jonathan Chait didn’t take our advice:

My God, it may be the best exchange on Twitter of the entire year. pic.twitter.com/q4YH0Eek6H

His mom warned him he’d shoot his eye out.

OMG we so had to find a way to work a line from ‘A Christmas Story’ into this piece. Don’t @ us.

It's up there with the legendary Dawkins/pknocker90 dialogue.

He really waited for that punchline, didn’t he?

Well-played.

RIGHT?!

WebMD would say he has cancer.

WebMD’s answer to every question is CANCER.

‘Hey WebMD, how long should I leave the pot roast in the oven?’

‘You want pot roast to have an internal temperature of 150 oh and by the way, YOU HAVE CANCER!!!’

WebMD told me last night I had cancer. Turns out I was just out of wiper fluid.
