If you find yourself wasting spending hours on the Internet each day, for work or for fun, you've probably discovered your fair share of incredibly entertaining Twitter accounts. From the (sadly suspended) fake Dr. Jill Biden, to the fictional @RealLizLemon and fiction writer Jennifer Weiner (who also happens to be the #1 source for witty commentary on "The Bachelor"), Twitter is a gold mine of comedic content for smart women.

So move on over, @ShitGirlsSay -- you're not the only laugh-out-loud meme on the Twitter horizon. Here are five accounts that should be on your clever-woman radar right now. Don't ask, just follow.

Even though the second season of "Downton Abbey" has ended (so ... sad ...) this Twitter account lets you experience Maggie Smith's Dowager Countess all day long. With gems like "No one wants to kiss a girl in black," how can you resist?

I absolutely ADORE Maggie Smith. She is a consummate actress (not an actor; why do we have to lump women in a man's category, couldn't they all be called actresses? or better yet, leave well enough alone, actors and actresses). Anyway, I digress. She brought to this part a great deal of empathy, humor and hubris that was refreshing in a period piece. She is a joy to watch!

Maggie Smith has some of the best lines! My favorite is when she is trying to use a phone for the first time, she said... is this an instrument of communication... or torture!

It comes with the Amazon Prime package... you can watch it online like Netflix. But they didn't have season 2 so I will watch it on PBS, thanks I didn't know that.
