Just in case you hadn’t noticed, there’s a runaway NORAD spy blimp on the loose in the skies above the great state of Pennsylvania. CNN’s Wolf Blitzer is on the case, no doubt, but so too is all of Twitter.
They’re nowhere close to cracking it, mind you, but I’ll be damned if their attempts are really, really close.

Let us taunt the blimp. It may become so cross that it will make a mistake.

Let’s be honest, however, as the real winner came in the form of this gem. Why? BECAUSE HITCHBOT WILL FINALLY BE AVENGED.
The blimp is going to destroy Philadelphia to avenge HitchBot and I can’t blame it one bit
