    "Bernard, a customer support rep for Activision, proclaimed that if he got more Twitter followers than his colleague, Randolph, by Friday, he'd pie Randy in the face."

    That doesn't make sense to me at all. So Bernard gets to throw a pie in the face of Randolph if he gets more followers? It sounds like Bernard made the "bet" but Randolph ends up the loser for a bet that Bernard made. If Bernard is the one making the bet then Randolph should benefit if the conditions aren't met. I could see Bernard getting a pie in the face if he didn't get more followers than Randolph or Randolph getting a pie in the face if he bet Bernard couldn't pass his number of followers.

    Bernard sounds like a dick. I'd bet that guy that I could punch him in the face and it wouldn't hurt. #activision

    I wonder if one of these guys were the same ones that responded to me and gave me the "screw you" response? Even after I said I was going to only buy Rock Band games from now on did they pretty much say "screw you" again.

    Maybe that guy who got hit with the pie was actually a customer of theirs... #activision

    Randolph shouldn't have taken Bernard's proposal at face value.

    Or the pie, for that matter. #activision

    This seems strangely fitting for Activision.

    On an unrelated note, from the little I see of their offices, Activision's offices are far less drab looking than the place where I work. #activision

    Twitter customer support is ridiculous. The 140 character limit alone makes it near to impossible to ask any serious question. (1/2). #activision

    Never-mind trying to get to the bottom of a 140 character response that's supposed to fix your problem. E-mail works just fine. (2/2). #activision
