@nascarcasm Twitter roundup: Beware what happens when Dale Jr. retweets you

1.) Whatever Paul Menard has that renders him incapable of conveying emotion with his face is apparently contagious.

2.) Noah Gragson is doing it wrong. You have to set the number of RTs at a completely unreachable level.

3.) Because you know what happens? @DaleJr retweets it and the next thing you know your esophagus has a gaping hole in it and you make faces like that kid in the viral video from years back who was still hallucinating after a visit to the dentist because his father thought it would be fun to share his innocent child’s anguish with the world (NOTE: It was.)

4.) Landon Cassill’s meme/trend game is as strong as those walls at Dover.

5.) Know how if you’re driving down the highway and you see another car with a dog in it, you won’t pass the car but rather spend hours just riding alongside the car and look at the dog? THAT is how Dale Jr. will win this race. Dale will take the white flag in the lead and no one will pass him because they’ll be behind him, making funny faces and saying “AWWWW WHO’S A GOOD BOY?”

6.) It’s nice of a future NASCAR Hall-of-Famer to call a current Hall-of-Famer. And kudos to Jimmie for actually calling him, because no one calls each other anymore. We figure a younger driver would get Cale’s number, and then just text him. Poor Cale would be trying to figure out what a Bitmoji with the text “WE GUCCI” means.

7.) Gotta give it up to the Penske Games — a recurring series of wacky contests that pit them against each other. Here, Joey Logano hula-hoops much longer than any of his teammates. And interestingly, he hula-hoops counterclockwise. It’s like a Polish hula-hoop victory lap. Regardless, fine work by Joey. His hips don’t lie.

8.) We’d say so. Good luck in the No. 43, my good man.
