Kings Of Leon bassist Jared Followill should maybe give himself a Twitter timeout. As NME points out, Followill has spent much of this week tweeting some dumb shit. Two days ago, Followill decided to use his account to tell the world to stop watching pro wrestling:

The funny part about this is that the indie wrestlers of the world -- the people who Followill is actively trolling -- spend their time traveling the world, putting themselves through hell for little or no money because they love their art form. It's something that Kings Of Leon, who have spent their entire career on a major label, have never really had to contend with. Also, indie wrestlers can pick you up and then drop you on your head really hard. So maybe don't tell them to close their legs.
