Many reacted to Barr’s post about „Ambien tweeting“ by claiming they used the sedative in the past, did crazy things while under its influence, but never resorted to racist behavior.
“I think Joe Rogan is right about Ambien,” Barr said on Twitter, shortly after confirming she will be on the comedian and UFC commentator’s podcast on Friday.
“Not giving excuses for what I did (tweeted) but I’ve done weird stuff while on Ambien – cracked eggs on the wall at 2 a.m., etc.”
According to the Huffington Post, Roseanne Barr’s Ambien defense caused the drug to trend on Twitter soon after she made the comments, as several users chimed in with their own Ambien “experiences,” many of which seemed to be mocking how Roseanne seemingly blamed her actions on the use of a popular sedative.
“While on Ambien I’ve made sandwiches, initiated sex with my husband, and called a friend to read her poetry at 3 a.m., and didn’t remember doing any of it. But I wasn’t a racist a**hole,” read the tweet of one user.

Things I’ve done on Ambien:
– Cut a full watermelon and ate the whole thing.
– Walked the dog, with only my underwear on and wearing my wife’s pink slippers.
– Ordered a full new living room for $5,000.
Things I have never done on Ambien:
Be a racist.

About an hour after Roseanne Barr’s “Ambien tweeting” defense was posted, Digital Spy wrote that the actress made another Twitter post, this time saying that other comedians “have said worse,” adding that she’s “tired of being attacked and belittled” more than these individuals. Barr did not specify which comedians she was referring to, but she stressed that she will defend herself and call out followers who get out of line if she has to.
