US Representative Clay Higgins unwittingly made himself the butt of the joke on
social media on Sunday with a tweet that even Dictionary.com couldn’t
understand.

Mr Higgins tweeted: “You millennial Leftists who never lived
one day under nuclear threat can now reflect upon your woke sky.” He further
said that, “You made quite a non-binary fuss to save the world from
intercontinental ballistic tweets.”

More than 11,000 “quote tweets” and over 4,500 likes
were left on his tweet.

Mr Higgins received a response from the handle of
Dictionary.com, which promotes itself as “the world’s leading digital
dictionary,” according to its Twitter bio, replied “We’re not entirely
sure what this tweet is supposed to mean, and we’re literally the dictionary.”

Others, on the other hand, were not so kind.

“I’ve sat on a committee with this guy for years. He talks
like this every day,” Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez responded to the
tweet.

Others mocked Mr Higgins’ useless tweet as well. “You’ve been playing with the magnetic poetry on
the Fox news break room fridge again haven’t you,” another user wrote.

“Non binary fuss, new punk band name I call it,” another
commented.

In the midst of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, social media
users diverted their attention to the Louisiana Republican.

Comedian Christopher Titus reacting to the tweet wrote, “The
millennials have fought in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria you POS. My cousin
watched his team leader blown up. So how about you stfu and respect the
millennials that fought for your freedom to talk shit about millennials.”

Walter Shaub, former director at the US Office of Government
Ethics, replied to Higgins’ tweet, writing, “This is a very confusing tweet. I’m
familiar with the sky Lucy lives in with diamonds, the one Luke walks on, and
the country that has a big one. But I’m not familiar with the woke sky. I also
didn’t know Twitter was giving some users ballistic tweets, and I feel left
out.”

Writer and artist Tony Posnanski also wrote: “Clay Higgins
needs to log off forever. Those are the rules you can’t come back after this
subtweet. It’s not possible.”

One Twitter user praised Dictionary.com’s
response, saying, “This may be the single greatest response to a tweet in the history
of time.”

“When the Dictionary Twitter drops more heat than the sun on
yet another political dummy,” wrote another.

“Are you OK? Word salad can often be a sign of stroke or
certain neurological conditions,” another user joked.
