This is hilarious. Twenty-five people on Twitter who were thoroughly confused and thought Lil’ Kim, the bad girl rapper, had died, not little Kim Jong Il, the North Korean madman.
Buzzfeed, a site that monitors social media, captured 25 tweets with this monumental mistake.
No. 2 on the list? Disgraced former Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick.

Some people are now saying on Twitter that the account referred to by Buzzfeed is a fake Kwame Kilpatrick site.
Also, an earlier version of this post referred to Kim Jong Il as the South Korean dictator — I will officially nominate that bonehead move as my biggest blog mistake of the year.
This is still making me laugh, I am wondering what tomorrows Twitter Gaff is going to look like.
Chad, you like to criticize Sarah Palin, and yet you call Kim Jong Il the "South Korean" madman? He was from North Korea, not South Korea.
