Onetime MLB superstar Jose Canseco's Twitter feed is one of the truly bizarre -- yet invaluable -- treasures of the sports Internet. He posts opinions and theories on an expansive range of important and not-so-important world issues, constantly fires off non-sequiturs and dispenses a "hug for u" to just about anyone within tweeting distance.
Whether it's his genuine baseball-to-the-noggin-addled personality or just some expert-level trolling, one thing is certain: Jose Canseco on the Internet is weird as all get out and highly, highly entertaining.
So when Canseco announced that he was going to do a Reddit AMA on Thursday, we knew things were about to get real. Read on for the seven weirdest moments from the q-and-a session and get an inside look at the mind of a maniac ... or genius, we're not quite sure which. (Fair warning: There is some potty talk ahead.)
I am Jose Canseco, famed steroid user and former MLB player. Ask me anything.
1. Returning to a frequent Twitter theme, Jose insists he knows the secret to time travel
2. Jose epically dispatches a hater who doubts his time travel prowess
3. Jose delivers another devastating comeback to an insult that wasn't even directed at him
4. Um, what?
5. A Redditor asks a really weird question and Jose responds with way TMI
6. Jose answers one of sports Twitter's most important questions (kind of)
7. Jose gets scientific on the side-effects of steroids
Looks like that's all for now, kids. But fear not:
