Watching Paddington Bear being mercilessly trolled on Twitter is the world we live in now

His official Twitter account has just posted the latest mishap from Paddington, an unfortunate incident involving (you guessed it) a jar of marmalade.

Here’s what happened…

A few of the replies were sympathetic.

But that’s not why we’re here. We’re here for the unexpected animosity and vitriol that was unleashed. It seems so very wrong to laugh, but we’re ashamed to say that we did. A lot.

Here’s a taste. It’s NSFW at times.

No doubt Paddington replied to all of his haters with one of his classic hard stares. Quite right, too.
