How does a world leader gauge his or her relevance on the world stage? Twitter might give some insight. British Prime Minister David Cameron probably thought posting a selfie to Twitter might help him appear engaged and important.
After all, the president of the United States and the Prime Minister of Great Britain, that’s important, right? Men who once held this office divided the world after WWII. This is important stuff.
The selfie of the phone call Friday to U.S. President Barack Obama regarding the Ukrainian crisis took on a life of its own when twitter users – from the famous to the very young – began tweeting out parodies of the call that might make world leaders think twice about what they post.
Shortly after, U.S. comedian Rob Delaney sent Cameron a response where he swapped the phone for his toothpaste.
Shortly after, famous Shakespearean actor and Captain of Star Trek’s Enterprise Sir Patrick Stewart chimed in with his own quick-witted response. But this time it’s with “Wet Wipes.”
From there, everyone jumped into the pool.
