John Kerry’s Twitter Handle is Laughing at You


To let us know when he’s tweeting for himself, and when a generic State Department staffer is doing it, newly appointed Secretary of State John Kerry will be signing his personal tweets “JK,” the very same acronym young folks may or may not still use to denote a comment made in jest.

In other words, everything the Dept. tweets will sound serious, and everything Kerry will tweet will sound sarcastic, aloof, and inappropriate. I took the liberty of adding a “JK” to some recent Kerry tweets to forecast the future.
