Little warning: If you’re going to come at the Merriam-Webster dictionary on Twitter, you best not miss or they will own your candy ass.
Here’s how this all innocently began…
Pretty basic, right? Well, it was, until a man named Gabriel Roth decided to make a comment about it. Or rather, several comments…
It was at that point the dictionary had had enough and dropped this tremendous burn on Mr. Roth…
OUUUCH.
The reactions may have been even better than the ownage itself…
And of course…
According to Elite Daily, Merriam-Webster’s editor at large, Peter Sokolowski said this about the tweet…
In the spirit of Twitter, people can sometimes play a little rough, but we assure you that Merriam-Webster’s banter was done in the spirit of good fun and that no harm was intended by any comments made.
And just like that the dictionary gained a new follower.
