So it all began when a person called Josie uploaded a pic of Edward’s Starbuck’s order. Captioned, “On today’s episode of why I wanna quit my job.”, it made ‘Edward’ to the trending list.
Now it began a thread of people trolling Edward. Some said this is what happens when you don’t have friends to enlighten you when you suck.
edward is a cautionary tale of what happens to u when u don’t have friends who will tell u when u fucking suck https://t.co/ICV0RkQLlt

Some are assuming that Edward is just high maintenance.
I don't like to jump to conclusions, but Edward might be high-maintenance.

Now, doctors are drawing a parallel of Edward’s order to their chemotherapy procedures.

Now , Boris Johnson’s name comes into play.
Boris Johnson’s senior adviser Edward Lister owns a company that has been awarded over £1 million in government contracts since he joined No 10.
Probably just a coincidence.

Okay, Let’s celebrate Press Freedom with Edward.
Happy #WorldPressFreedomDay! Friendly reminder Julian Assange is still in prison, Chelsea Manning was tortured for years, Edward Snowden received no pardon, non-corporate media is stifled on a daily basis and in any press freedom index ranking worth a damn the US is at best 50th.

So we hope that you’d learnt your lesson to not trouble the barrista like Edward and just order a simple milkshake!
