Twitter CEO won't respond to pot-smoking allegations, too busy 'eating a giant bag of Doritos'

Entrepreneur Peter Thiel put Twitter's "mismanagement" as he saw it down to everyone at the company being high during a CNBC interview this week, and Twitter CEO Dick Costolo has responded in wonderfully sarcastic fashion.

"Twitter is hard to evaluate. They have a lot of potential. It’s a horribly mismanaged company—probably a lot of pot-smoking going on there," Facebook investor Thiel said of the rival company yesterday.

The allegation quickly spread around the internet and a Twitter employee eventually put it to their CEO, who jokingly replied: "Working my way through a giant bag of Doritos. I'll catch up with you later."

Thiel's weird reasoning is even more bizarre given he donated $70,000 to a marijuana legalisation campaign back in 2010.

This isn't actually the first time Twitter and weed have been in the news in the same headline, with Snoop Dogg previously lighting up a joint in their offices (of course he did, he did the very same in The White House).
