How does this moron keep stepping in it? Nobody likes you, stop acting like you're part of the masses.

Ted Cruz seems rather chill about being an online lolcow. I feel he did read it. I'm sure he's framed many of Internet Comment Etiquette's tweets too.

Right? Everything about Cruz's public life suggests to me that he has a massive humiliation fetish.

Was this a funny coincidence, or did OOP change their name after they saw that Cruz had retweeted them?

[–] EvilBit@lemmy.world 13 points 4 hours ago

Either way, the Dolly poster is a legend. Anyone who gets a reply from Ted Cruz has the obligation to change their name thusly.

They definitely changed their name.

[–] cannedtuna@lemmy.world 21 points 5 hours ago

That does seem the most likely

Takes one fake to recognize another

Says someone who I suspect is NOT a Chamaenerion angustifolium at all!

Damn he didn't have to remove it just because it was tiny

It wasn't him it was a pimple doctor in Cancun

We dont know the reason(s), it was only stated when it was removed (after he was made aware of the blunder) but not why it was removed.

"Sir, your dick is tiny."
