When comedian Rob Delaney isn’t busy oh-so-hilariously calling Donald Rumsfeld a “blood-gargling psychopath” or comparing Mitt Romney to dog feces, he likes to troll corporate Twitter accounts. It’s not a great shtick, but it’s kind of his thing.

When it gets awkward is when a corporate Twitter account responds.
@robdelaney: What location did this happen? Are you okay? I'm so very sorry. Email twitter@bestbuy.com with details. ^JF

So, was Best Buy’s social media person counter-trolling? Or was the reply sincere?

Er … we hope DNA puddles at Best Buy stores aren’t a common enough complaint that there’s a protocol for responding.
