SAN FRANCISCO (The Borowitz Report)—The attempt to live-stream Ron DeSantis’s announcement of his White House bid on Twitter encountered difficulties because a computer keyboard involved in the transmission became clogged with chocolate pudding, a preliminary company investigation has determined.
Tracy Klugian, who heads up the digital-forensics team for the social-media platform, said that the broadcast had been glitchy not because of excessive traffic, as originally claimed, but because of “technical problems that appear to be chocolate-pudding related.”
“We’re not sure how, but chocolate pudding seems to have seeped into one of the keyboards,” he said. “It’s really gross.”
Klugian said that, even though the company has got to the bottom of the technical problem, the manner in which chocolate pudding came into contact with the keyboard remains a mystery.
“It’s almost as if someone ate chocolate pudding with his or her fingers,” he continued. “Who does that?”
