A confusing and unintelligible tweet released by U.S. Strategic Command (Stratcom) Sunday night drew ridicule and thousands of shares on Twitter after the military arm tweeted “;l;;gmlxzssaw.”
The garbled message, released at 7:48 p.m., received more than 11,000 retweets and hundreds of comments before it was deleted roughly half an hour later.
“Apologizes for any confusion. Please disregard this post,” Stratcom, based at Offutt Air Force Base, Neb., tweeted quickly thereafter, then deleted that apology.
The bizarre message drew speculation that it was the military’s inadvertent release of the “nuclear launch codes,” jokes that a cat was allowed on the keyboard and suggestions that the message was meant for extraterrestrial viewers.
more like a cat
It was Biden. He got loose. But he’s back in his room now.
Our cats have typed many such messages. Perhaps it really is some sort of code they’re typing. Hmmm...
If the nuclear launch code is really ‘;l;;gmlxzssaw’, we’re in worse trouble than we realize...
No silly, everybody knows it's "12345".
At least this tweet was less embarrassing and idiotic than the shots taken at Tucker Carlson from military Twitter accounts.
It’s a cat. The pattern is recognizable.
I’ve had many such strange messages left for me by my cat.
Cat gets a treat.
Within days there will be a bulletin from high up banning the presence of coffee cups near computer equipment. ;-) If the SAC guys are lucky they’ll still be allowed water bottles with closed tops and permanently attached straws.
That’s the code to the Air Shield too.
This reeks of Covfefe.
It was Decoded by His Highness pResident Joementia Xiden.
The Message reads: DRINK MORE OVALTINE.
Hmm, if you map that out on a standard keyboard it could be finger puppets doing either a cha-cha or the line dance associated with Achy Breaky Heart. ;-)
This morning my cat, Buttons, put his front paws up on the table by where I was sitting, reached over with his right paw an patted my cheek.
If it’s the nuclear code, Biden won’t remember it.
Especially since Biden is supposed to be able to enter it...but then, maybe the proper random position of fingers would do it.
“Bafflegab”, pure and simple.
Many years ago, when my cat wanted to go outside in the middle of the night, she would walk up and down the keys on the piano and wake up the entire house.
Well, I’ve been to one world fair, a picnic, and a rodeo, and that’s the stupidest thing I ever seen come over a tweet. You sure you got today’s codes?
