<p>Harsh? Yes, Rude? Extremely. But I did say that I want to punch it in the face. Still&#8230;it&#8217;s pretty funny.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not the only one to get berated. He did threaten one girl that <a title="not okay" href="http://twitter.com/microsoftword/status/993928735" target="_self">he was going to rape her</a>, and that&#8217;s NOT funny at all.</p>
<p>All kidding aside, this has got to be one of the biggest examples of brand misrepresentation I have ever seen. I wonder what the real <a title="the real microsoft" href="http://www.microsoft.com/en/us/default.aspx" target="_self">Microsoft </a>is going to think about this and how they will respond.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s pretty amazing that someone is taking the time to seek out all MS word insulters and <a title="twitter" href="http://www.twitter.com" target="_self">Tweet</a> the crap out of them.</p>
