Can all Twitter wars please be this fun and hilarious?
After a woman (@Tighe_er) traveling in Japan shared an image of a sign advising men to keep from “manspreading,” i.e. spreading their legs so wide on a train seat that nobody else can sit beside them, a man (@Lostlife2015) on Twitter called her out for being sexist.

What followed was one of the most hilarious and creative troll takedowns EVER!
It helped that the man opposed to the manspreading signage complained about women “nattering on” about their summer holidays, because that gave the original tweeter an idea!
She decided to tell him ALL about her summer fun timez in Europe, complete with PICTURES!!!
Here’s the original manspreading sign that was tweeted:
Anyway, the best thing about travelling in Japan were the anti-man spreading posters <3 pic.twitter.com/CC4sslSKTU

And then @Lostlife2015’s response:
@Tighe_er Perhaps there should be a sign asking women not to natter on about “the summer holidays” for the entire journey..

So it began … @Tighe_er started out with a photo of her on a plane and then her Barcelona apartment:

She regaled the man with images of Sitges, a charming coastal town in Spain:
@lostlife2015 have you ever been to Sitges? It’s SO nice, you should definitely go! I loved it! pic.twitter.com/5h02a3t0dP

She even shared her not-so fun timez:
@lostlife2015 I drank too sangria one night and I was really sick the next morning. I threw up THREE times!!!!!!!!!

And then other tweeters joined in on the shenanigans:

Be careful what you reply, @Lostlife2015!
But we hope you enjoyed all the beautiful holiday photos. Europe is truly gorgeous!
