Jon Stewart is back, baby. He's on Twitter, has a new TV show and he's looking for packets. Packets of what, you ask? Perhaps, packets of sugar for his coffee? Not exactly.

Yesterday, the phrase "Jon Stewart packet" trended on Twitter, oscillating between posts from comedy writers making jokes and others from people asking "what does this mean?" Well, the answer is: Jon Stewart's new AppleTV+ television series is looking for comedy writers. Instead of just requesting resumes, writers submit samples of jokes, sketches and other writing, usually referred to as a "packet."

Happy Jon Stewart Packet Day!

Throughout the day, people posted about the packet on Twitter, making jokes about the word "packet," their mock submissions, people asking, "What's a 'Jon Stewart packet'?" and people making fun of people asking, "What's a 'Jon Stewart packet'?"

I formally demand that someone forward me the Jon Stewart packet instructions. I am feeling so left out even though I have transcended to the blessed plane of network multicam situation comedy which pays better except the residuals aren't as good. I miss the futility of packets!

What if the Jon Stewart show only hires one writer and it's John Mulaney

Eventually, Stewart himself jumped into the pile on, tweeting, "Has anyone seen my me packet?" Of course, that only served to create more confusion, especially for people who didn't know what a "Jon Stewart packet" was, let alone a "me packet."

What's a me packet?
