There is a peculiar corporate species on Twitter, one that hovers somewhere between endearing and off-putting, corny and genuinely amusing. It can come in peanut shape or with bunny ears or as a dollop of chocolate. It is the company mascot with its own Twitter feed.
They get into manufactured spats and they tell groan-inducing jokes. And the very best of them have Twitter bios that are better than yours or mine.

Mr. Peanut

Ms. Green M&M’S®
The high-maintenance, femme fatale of M&M’s is clearly not a pushover.

Chester Cheetah

The Energizer Bunny
