So you’ve just hacked into Martin Shkreli’s Twitter account, and have the social media influence of one of the world’s most reviled humans at your fingertips. He’s a man who hiked up the price of a life-saving drug by 5,000%, making it unobtainable to the majority of those suffering with the illness it was intended to prevent, and who now faces jail time after being charged with fraud. He also laid down $2 million for the sole copy of the Wu-Tang Clan’s latest album, stating that he bought it because he thought it’d help him make celebrity friends. There’s a wealth of material at your disposal, but instead you use this opportunity to write about having “anal aids,” you change his bio to read “Fuck Yall” and his name to “Martin The God.”
You are literally the least funny human on planet Earth.
That’s the accusation we can today lob in the direction of whoever hacked into ex-Pharma CEO Martin Shkreli’s Twitter account, as the witless individual used their golden opportunity to post a series of inane messages that could have tumbled out of the mind of any 15-year-old boy.
Shkreli’s Twitter account was seemingly hacked yesterday, with the hacker beginning his series of tweets by writing: “Chat shit get banged Martin ye?” which is likely a reference to popular English soccer player Jamie Vardy, who posted a status update on Facebook reading “chat shit get banged” back in 2011, before he became a well-known name in the sport.
If UK-based memes weren’t high-larious enough, the hacker followed this comment up with another tweet from Shkreli’s account, reading: “I’m so god damn ugly… I gotta use okcupid :/ Fuck my life.” First tired sports jokes, then insults regarding Shkreli’s physical appearance concluding with the accusation that he – gasp – participates in online dating? Stop it, anonymous hacker! The burns, they are too severe!
The tweets have not yet been deleted from Shkreli’s account, though Twitter has stated that it is investigating the incident.
