The '@replies' bar of the Entertainment.ie Twitter account saw a lot of action yesterday.
It seems that Jedheads took offence at our news piece on the twins - but hey, no publicity (for their new single, Make Your Own Luck, that is) is bad publicity - right?
Besides, it gave all of us in the office a good laugh throughout the day. In a way, you have to admire the sheer blinkered devotion of their free marketing minions fans.
The comments underneath the story are also worth a read, but here are some of the most amusing tweets directed at Entertainment.ie throughout the day (although some have since been sneakily deleted - like the gem about me needing to see a psychiatrist. Lads, really: if you're going to attempt to insult someone, at least have the balls to stand by your tweet…!)
@entertainmentIE Shittest article I've ever read. It can't even be called an article really, it's just biased bullying.
