Companies frequently try to get the attention of potential customers on social media by posting cringey replies and slang filled tweets that don’t even really make sense. It has the opposite of the intended effect, and usually leads to the brand getting owned online.
These brands just couldn’t help themselves not to tweet stupid stuff and they paid the price. In their defense, the person running their Twitter account is definitely just a young social media intern who doesn’t get paid enough.
Twitter account @BrandsOwned shares all the best funny brand replies when companies were put back in their place on social media. These are some of their best finds:
1. I don’t need gendered wipes.
2. Doing the work for us.
3. He got out ahead of it.
4. One of the original times a brand got owned online.
5. You’re next, Safeway.
6. Send me the link.
7. The ratio here.
8. What does this even mean?
9. Walmart is the worst employer.
10. Window’s silence is deafening here.
11. Let’s read the tweet first next time.
