#AdamBainIsSoNice: Would-be Twitter CEO’s has admirers

So, he’s nice! Steve Jobs was a sociopath, but Bain is clearly not.

Swisher’s adoration prompted the hashtag #AdamBainIsSoNice on Twitter, a parade of tweets from employees and fans half-jokingly squealing how sweet Bain is. Topsy tracked 300 tweets with the hashtag.

At the moment, Bain is merely a finalist for the top job at Twitter. But who knows, maybe nice guys sometimes do finish first. Here are the funniest odes to Bain’s sunny disposition:

I was walking on beach with @adambain. When I looked back there was only 1 set of footprints. “That’s when I carried you.” #adambainissonice

Amazon sent me the wrong book (although it looks good) and is sending the right one but letting me keep this one as well. #AdamBainIsSoNice — Tom Maxwell (@tomaxwell) July 29, 2015

One time @adambain borrowed my office & spilled salad dressing all over it. When I confronted him, he admitted it. #AdamBainIsSoNice
