Don't mess with Big Bird, Mitt Romney. That's the message the Internet sent Wednesday night when the GOP presidential candidate confirmed that he "loves Big Bird," but would cut subsidies for PBS.
The zing had amateur Photoshoppers working in overdrive to defend the beloved Sesame Street character.
The comment also generated 17,000 tweets per minute for "Big Bird" and 10,000 tweets per minute for "PBS," according to @gov. Within minutes, parody Twitter accounts began popping up, including @FiredBigBird and @BigBirdRomney.
Romney will fire Big Bird and Cookie Monster and replace them with the replacement refs #bigbird

BONUS: 10 Romney Tumblrs
Politicians always look a little awkward out of suits. Mitt Romney Wearing Jeans collects photos of the GOP candidate in denim instead of Dockers.
Big head, little face. Photoshop magic creates hilarity one teeny-tiny Mitt mug at a time.
The folks at Upworthy think the Romney campaign could use a little help putting together Venn diagrams.
Self-explanatory.
Mitt's giggling face ruins the Internet's best GIFs.
Comedian Rob Delaney sends funny tweets to Mitt Romney, and Delaney's buddy @pants illustrates the one-sided tweet-versations.
In May, a typo in Mitt's app -- "Amercia" instead of America -- sparked plenty of jokes at the former governor's expense. Amercia Is With Mitt lasted less than a week, but it's now a piece of blooper history.
Photos of Mitt Romney + Quotes from Lucille Bluth from Arrested Development = Mitt and Lucille
More Tumblr math:
Photos of Mitt Romney + Quotes from William Shakespeare = Mitt Does Shakespeare
All that politician baby-kissing is sure to produce a funny photo or two. Or an entire Tumblr's worth.
That's right; Mitt Romney has an official Tumblr page. The page includes campaign updates, videos and supporter stories.
