Meet Oliver Eric Rawlings – he decided today that he would throw abuse via Twitter, and embarrass himself on the internet.

Here were his tweets not long ago.

Update: He’s deleted his tweets but we have a screenshot

.

To which Jeremy Vine replied

.@Rawlings153 @wmarybeard So Oliver, you are trolling the guest @BBCRadio2 who told us about how upset she was by people trolling her? — Jeremy Vine (@theJeremyVine) July 29, 2013

.

Pretty soon, other people piled into him.

@Rawlings153 @wmarybeard @theJeremyVine Do you have a mum, sister, girlfriend, female friends? What wd you feel if they got a msg like this? — Alex Clark (@AlexClark3) July 29, 2013

.

and…

@tug @Rawlings153 I'll give him a few hours to apologise and take it down. Optimist. — mary beard (@wmarybeard) July 29, 2013

@theJeremyVine @Rawlings153 @wmarybeard Unusually dense given his personal website whois is tied to full name, address and contact details. — Jim Waterson (@jimwaterson) July 29, 2013

.

Oh dear!

He suddenly realised he was rumbled and ran with his tails between his legs.

@wmarybeard @theJeremyVine I sincerely apologise for my trolling. I was wrong and very rude. Hope this can be forgotten and forgiven xxx — Oliver Eric Rawlings (@Rawlings153) July 29, 2013

.

and then…

@wmarybeard @theJeremyVine I feel this had been a good lesson for me. Thanks 4 showing me the error of my ways. I wish you both all the best — Oliver Eric Rawlings (@Rawlings153) July 29, 2013

Embarrassing.

The original outburst was embarrassing but good on him to apologise (once he realised he was going to be exposed!).

Other trolls keep this in mind – this could happen to you too.
