British Prime Minister David Cameron wanted to let the world know that he was hard at work doing stuff, so yesterday he tweeted out a picture of himself chatting on the phone with President Obama, “talking tough” on Russia:
I’ve been speaking to @BarackObama about the situation in Ukraine. We are united in condemnation of Russia’s actions. pic.twitter.com/7Rk2k8iOIK

Comedian Rob Delaney seized on the opportunity and tweeted out a photo of himself “joining the call,” with a tube of Crest toothpaste held up to his ear:
.@David_Cameron @BarackObama Hi guys, I’m on the line now too. Get me up to speed. pic.twitter.com/xhmJG5KpxT

Next, veteran actor Patrick Stewart joined the fray and “patched himself in” with a bottle of Wet Ones:
.@robdelaney @David_Cameron @BarackObama I’m now patched in as well. Sorry for the delay. pic.twitter.com/elLQcKcV3w

After that, it was an Internet free-for-all, as everyone dogpiled on the Prime Minister and openly mocked his asinine picture. It was a good day on Twitter, unless you were David Cameron:

David Cameron responded to the shellacking by posting another seemingly innocent tweet:
@SirPatStew Talking to another US President, this time face to face, not on the phone. pic.twitter.com/XoCGACu2nD

Is he asking for another round?! ;)
