It began with a simple query from Kristen (@Kica333):

Ruin a first date in four words or less.

Among thousands of others, GameInformer editor David Milner accepted the challenge:

Milner was retweeted by Rage Against the Machine's guitarist:

Which sadly led to this retweet, subsequent emotional breakdown and disturbing personal details (see comments if interested):

YESSSS, this is the best one. The director of the greatest movie of all time – MISSION IMPOSSIBLE GHOST PROTOCOL – retweeted me. pic.twitter.com/zuH0MJ5KJo
