UPDATE: JC Penney has since apologized for the wierd tweets. "Oops...Sorry for the typos. We were #TweetingWithMittens. Wasn't it supposed to be colder? Enjoy the game! #GoTeamUSA" Sounds like a cover up to us. What do you think? 
 
 JC Penney has become a hot topic on social media after the retailer posted a tweet that made absolutely no sense and seemed to be written by someone typing under the influence. "Who kkmew theis was ghiong tob e a baweball ghamle. #lowsscorinh 5_0" read the tweet posted on Sunday evening. Presumably the post was in connection to the Super Bowl, however, whoever wrote it clearly had no idea what they were tweeting about. There has been no comment from the store's account. 
 
 JC Penney's 'drunk tweet' has provoked some hilarious comments on the twittesphere. "Umm,@jcpenney, the intern you have doing your tweets is drunk," Tweeted one user. "If you need proof of how underperforming this brand is...RT @jcpenney," tweeted another. "Hacked by Macy's RT @jcpenney" suggested someone else. "Uhh..go home @jcpenney. Your social media person is drunk," tweeted one user. "Maybe @jcpenney's super creative Super Bowl ad strategy is alcohol." 
 
 The controversy comes just two days after TIME reported that JCPenney was raising its prices in order to slash them again for Valentines Day. s. “They had us up all night changing the prices on everything,” one J.C. Penney jewelry salesperson told the magazine. The outdated retailer has been accused of the tactic known as "price anchoring" for years. "Toughdown Seadawks!! Is sSeattle going toa runaway wit h this??" they just tweeted, with no explanation of the previous comment.

 Umm,@jcpenney, the intern you have doing your tweets is drunk. — Beth Szabo (@PolkaDotFoxTrot) February 2, 2014 ||||| The so-called “Target Troll” is back with vengeance. 
 
 In early August, Mike Melgaard posed as a Target representative on Facebook to confront people upset with the retail chain’s decision to make its toy department signage gender-neutral. He successfully trolled outraged shoppers from his own account, which was made to look like an official Target Facebook page, complete with the trademark bullseye as his picture (much to the chagrin of Target). 
 
 The hijacking made him briefly Internet famous, and now it looks like he’s back for more. This time around he’s pretending to represent Doritos on Facebook, which last week unveiled a limited edition rainbow-colored chips in support of the gay community.

 Frito-Lays’ collaboration with the It Gets Better Project apparently left a spoiled taste in some people’s mouths — a taste not associated with the chips, that is. They voiced their discontent online calling the initiative “disgusting” or “ungodly,” according to Logo, the cable network devoted to gay themes and issues. 
 
 Activate Melgaard. Under the name “Doritos ForHelp,” he wrote cheeky responses to anti-gay bigots who said they were disowning the chip company. 
 
 Here’s a sampling: 
 
 As you can see, people fell for it even though his account doesn’t have the verified check mark that Doritos’ page has. The fun didn’t last more than day, Melgaard writes on Facebook, before the account was deleted. Digiday has reached out to Doritos for comment but has not yet heard back. 
 
 Despite the fact that Melgaard’s shenanigans didn’t reach the viral popularity that his Target stunt did, this troll holds importance to the comic. He addressed people who are actually upset with Doritos in a Facebook message saying the initiative is about bringing awareness to suicide among LGBTQ teens. 
 
 “Anyone being ‘upset’ over this issue is really just slowing down the collective progress for all of humanity,” he writes. “And you’re doing it for no reason other than your personal bias.”

– JCPenney, drunk tweeter? Nah, it turns out the company's retail Twitter account was just pulling our collective leg—and attracting a little attention—by tweeting silly things, AdWeek reports. But it's kinda funny to see how the tweets drew the Doritos and Kia social media teams into taking potshots: JCPenney: Who kkmew theis was ghiong tob e a baweball ghamle. #lowsscorinh 5_0 JCPenney: Toughdown Seadawks!! Is sSeattle going toa runaway wit h this??? Kia: Hey @jcpenney need a designated driver? Doritos: Slow down, @jcpenney. Have some #Doritos . JCPenney: Oops...Sorry for the typos. We were #TweetingWithMittens . Wasn't it supposed to be colder? Enjoy the game! #GoTeamUSA. Yes, it was all to promote mittens. Very clever, JCP. But they're not always so funny: The Twitter stunt comes right after the retailer raised prices just to lower them for Valentine's Day, reports Latin Times. JCPenney has been accused of such "price anchoring" several times over the years.
