Sometimes things go exactly as planned, other times – as Microsoft found out – things fail with a loud bang. The software giant has been on an offensive against Google lately (the Scroogled campaign) and more recently the #DroidRage campaign.
Except most of the Twitter missiles that Microsoft though users will fire at Android as part of the campaign were smacked right into Windows Phone.
Here’s how it started:
Do you have an Android malware horror story? Reply with #DroidRage with your best/worst story and we may have a get-well present for you. 
@windowsphone
Windows Phone
And here are some of the responses they got:

I tried to buy a Nexus 4 but the device is so popular to get one! I wish it was less popular like Windows Phone. #DroidRage @WindowsPhone

My pathetic underlings failed to shoot down the escape pod since it had "no life forms aboard." Death Star plans: gone. #DroidRage

There are a few actual complaints against Android that were sent in, but for the most part it’s snarky, wry comments. You can have a look at all responses here.
