Jokes about terrorism can be a tough sell, especially when the audience is one of the world’s largest airlines.

Twitter user @QueenDemetriax_ learned that the hard way Sunday, when she tweeted this regrettable zinger at American Airlines: “hello my name’s Ibrahim and I’m from Afghanistan. I’m part of Al Qaida and on June 1st I’m gonna do something really big bye.’’

@AmericanAirlines quickly responded:

…which prompted anxious, rapid-fire tweets from the reportedly 14-year-old girl.

I need a lawyer. Any lawyers on here? — demetria (@QueenDemetriax_) April 13, 2014

I'm not gonna tell my parents, they'll tell me to delete my acc omg that would be the end of my life — demetria (@QueenDemetriax_) April 13, 2014

I blocked the FBI just in case — demetria (@QueenDemetriax_) April 13, 2014

@QueenDemetriax_ then offered several contradictory excuses for the tweet, including the classic ’’my account was hacked’’ alibi:

My account got hacked okay I didn't tweet anything — demetria (@QueenDemetriax_) April 13, 2014

…followed by the “I was misunderstood!’’ excuse:

My sister's birthday is on June 1st that's what I meant. @AmericanAir — demetria (@QueenDemetriax_) April 13, 2014


…and concluding with “it was an accident.’’

American Airlines has deleted the tweet and did not immediately respond to a request for comments Sunday night. A spokesperson told the New York Daily News that the tweet was removed so their social media team could better focus on other customers.
