"Petition for Mondays to be banned so after the next Monday we will be Tuesday , we ban that also because it following Sunday , so Everyday After Sunday will be banned and we only have a Sunday," a Twitter user wrote.

An official page for the famous animated character 'Angry Bird' - inspired by a sketch of stylised wingless birds and turned into a video game, also reacted to Guinness World Records' post.

"Took you long enough", Angry Bird commented. To which GWR responded, "Ikr", or "I know right!"
