Rowan Atkinson (a.k.a. Mr. Bean) has been killed off on Twitter, and his fans are bloody MIFFED. "RIP Rowan Atkinson" started trending Sunday after Filipino Michael Robert Meras tweeted, "RIP Rowan Atkinson, you are really inspiring person." Meras issued an apology once he realized his joke had gotten out of hand, but not before inciting the wrath of every "Black Adder" aficionado with a Twitter handle. @mynamesamy_ rages "Whoever started that is sick"; @WeThinkMiley simply succumbed to Twitter death-hoax ennui, complaining, "Retweet if you think these fake RIPs are getting boring."
Atkinson joins the illustrious ranks of Lindsay Lohan, Miley Cyrus and Bill Cosby (who's been offed online on at least four occasions) in the Twitter #RIP club.
