Oh, dear! Author Judy Blume is none to pleased with Delta, and she took her disgust straight to Twitter. With hashtag!

Comedian Patton Oswalt took a break from nasty, gay-baiting tweets to have Blume’s back.
Hey, @Delta airlines? You do NOT close your doors on @judyblume. You just incurred the wrath of her Awkward Former Teen Army. #deltafail

Then Again, Maybe I Won't Fly @Delta.
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) October 15, 2012
Are you there, any other airline besides @Delta? Get @judyblume from Atlanta to Albuquerque. Thank you.
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) October 15, 2012
Other Twitter users rally around Blume and enjoy the Oswalt exchange.

And they are not going to take it anymore! You won’t like SuperFudge when he’s angry! Even “Chewbacca” gets into the mix.
