UPDATE: State Sen. Jerry Sonnenberg obliviously re-tweeted the image (which has since been changed by Baumgardner — or someone who understands the Internet Tubes better than Baumgardner).

Always great to have a better understanding of our water issues. #coleg https://t.co/ca43b6sjrt

If you are uploading a picture to your Twitter account, it’s always a good idea to double-check the image. It’s also a good idea to not upload a screenshot from your phone unless you are pretty confident that you aren’t screen-shotting something you shouldn’t.

Or, you could just follow the example of Republican State Sen. Randy Baumgardner, who made this unfortunate Twitter error this morning:
