Hat Tip to DU's ms. smiler:
JPMorgan Chase & Co canceled a question and answer session on Twitter with veteran investment banker Jimmy Lee after being flooded with insulting questions less than 24 hours before the session was to begin.
Few questions appeared until Wednesday afternoon, when responses piled in, many making fun of the attempt to use social media, insulting executives and reminding readers of the bank's recent legal problems.
"Reading the #AskJPM Twitter feed makes it seem JPM put a 'kick me' sticker on its back when it rolled out that hashtag," wrote one user.

Some of the questions:
Is the fact that you've paid over half a billion in fines since August a source or pride, or are you embarrassed it's not higher? #AskJPM

My question: Why is JP Morgan Chase foreclosing on my neighbor after she's paid for her house 4 times over? #AskJPM Disgusting.

Does it feel better paying the biggest bank fines in history so far, or did the satisfaction of the crimes outweigh the fines? #AskJPM

Are you relieved that credit ratings services are so inept, or would your billables be even higher if you faced competent scrutiny? #AskJPM

Wait! It gets even better!
Apparently JP did not realize a hashtag cannot be deleted, so comments continue to pour in to #AskJPM !!!!!

Sorry we ruined your hashtag event, if you could just apologies for your plunder of the global economy,. I think we'd be even.
Man, I cannot believe how DIM JP was about how Twitter works.
