... the frequency of badminton broadcasts ...

Samuel L. JacksonNote that it took exactly two minutes for millionaire superstar Samuel L. Jackson to respond to this.

... or the price of mammary implants.

Samuel L. JacksonThat's not how sex works, Mr. Jackson.

We're not cutting out any tweets on purpose, by the way. There is no slow escalation here; Jackson goes from zero to Pulp Fiction at an astonishing speed in all of these exchanges. However, it seems that his management had a word with him about cursing at fans on Twitter, because he's shelved the F-bombs lately ... except for cases that truly merit them.

Samuel L. JacksonFeel free to pretend those words are bold for emphasis, and not because they were our search terms.

Finally, a piece of advice: If Samuel L. Jackson ever declines to take a picture with you, stop right there. Cut your losses. Leave it be. Trust us.

Samuel L. JacksonIn other words, don't be this guy.

If you come at Simmons with foul language, or are simply too "silly" for his taste, you are on the precipice of BANISHMENT. And he's equally harsh to everyone who brings his handle into the conversation. Sometimes it makes sense, like when someone talks smack about KISS merchandise and he has to bring them into line:

Gene SimmonsNobody disrespects KISS-branded garden gnomes in Gene Simmons' presence.

Other examples make us wonder whether Simmons knows there are subjects other than Gene Simmons discussed on Twitter. When some idiots started arguing in a thread with him tagged in (it's Twitter, it happens to everyone), one idiot called the other a communist, and Gene thought it was directed at him, and responded the way you would expect:

Gene SimmonsIt helps if you read his tweets in a Tommy Wiseau accent.

And like that, a fan's dreams were doubtlessly shattered. Never again will he be able to see the tweeted wisdom of this rock icon.

Gene SimmonsThese voice-to-text programs can easily backfire.

Not only did Manson never apologize, but she also demanded an apology from the first person who called her out. We don't believe she ever got it. The band has continued to release music and pick fights with fans since then, and not a single lesson was learned by anyone. So, Twitter in a nutshell.

Some fans have tried to tell him not to do it, to be the bigger man, and it went as well as you would expect.

Kevin DurantThey're right, NBA stars are above this. Twitter is for trolls, wannabe comedians, and presidents.

All of his counter-trolling seems to have sharpened his wit. When one Twitter user came to Durant with a joke about him leaving Oklahoma City, Durant responded appropriately:

Kevin DurantA piece of Patrick Stewart? What does that even mean?

It looks like the new, hater-proof Durant is here to stay. Which really isn't a bad thing, considering that his earlier tweets had been ... well, we'll let you be the judge.

Kevin DurantChampionships weren't the only thing he was thirsty for, apparently.

Misreported whale deaths aren't the only thing upsetting Raffi, though. Inappropriate band names are just as bad in his book. Last year, he wrote a tweet about how he was displeased with the name of indie rock band The New Pornographers:

RaffiWhat's wrong with food plans? Everyone should have a food plan.

This upset New Pornographers vocalist A.C. Newman, who had idolized Raffi's music since he was a child, and confused everyone else on the planet, who wondered if Raffi had ever heard of Pussy Riot.

A.C. Newman"It's such a shame that our society stigmatizes sexuality to this absurd degree," the child continued.

Raffi later apologized to the band, which we personally are thankful for. We love your music, Raffi, but only one of you wrote "Electric Version."

These days, Byrne limits his interactions to his own message boards, which you'd expect to be filled with typical threads like "Who makes the best burritos, Superman or Goku?" Instead, there's this:

Byre RoboticsThis was written in 2015, not 1955.

That's a post that Byrne himself made in a discussion about Caitlyn Jenner and transgender people in general. Byrne, having decided that the world needs his thoughtful expertise on the subject, suggests that all trans people are simply mentally ill, and should receive the same treatment from society as pedophiles. Somehow, his entire web server managed to not collapse in on itself due to critical asshole mass, which we assume is due to Byrne's knowledge of comic book super science.

Over the years, Byrne has used his message boards to casually drop terrible opinions on a wide range of subjects, from nuking the Middle East to how Steve Irwin had it coming. "But Cracked, what about his stance on birthday presents?" you're naturally asking. Well, in 2016, a longtime fan and acquaintance (who had been invited to Byrne's house and all) signed him up for something called the Mysterious Package Company, which sends people weird, alternate-reality-esque old letters, photos, clippings, and other items. Upon realizing that this was all an innocent bit of fun to celebrate the occasion of his birthday, Byrne flew into a complete rage.

Byrne RoboticsThis is what happens when you don't hug your kids, people.

And even after the fan tried to apologize, Byrne said that he may never be able to forgive him for this. We assume he'll be working this rage out in his upcoming comic book miniseries in which Lex Luthor destroys the concept of birthdays forever.

Other replies indicate that they've become aware of their status as the bane of some music lovers' existence, and have learned to enjoy it:

NickelbackBut seriously, if they do retire from music, they could probably get jobs running Phish's Twitter.

After years of countless insults, Nickelback's clapback game has been finely honed. Even when Arnold Schwarzenegger uses them to try to make a point, they're ready with a solid response:

NickelbackWe're not sure why Schwarzenegger's opponents didn't pull out Batman & Robin during election debates.

As Arnold immediately conceded, that one was ... "ice cold." The jury's still out on their music, but we'll say this: If they made an album of all their Twitter retorts, we'd probably buy it.

Kevin Durant looked better in an OKC jersey, conveniently still available as a plush.
