We understand that SOPA blackout day is probably a bummer if you’re the mouthpiece for the RIAA, but here’s a tip from your friends in that terrifying blogosphere: If you want to convince the public (you know, those people you like to sue) that you aren’t a bunch of assholes, maybe try a different tack. Or, if you’re going to be a dick, maybe be a dick who can spell?

Or maybe try a new slogan? The RIAA: Good at Lobbying, Bad at People. [Twitter]

Update: 11:20 AM

Lamy has deleted the offending tweet. Thank goodness for screengrabs!
