If ever you doubted the internet's ability to completely escalate a situation,Watch Sexy Urban Legends episode 9 season 1 (2001) just take a look at this ongoing feud between a British blogger and a hotel.

It all started Tuesday, when The White Moose Café in Dublin, Ireland, shared the following post on their Facebook page:

Paul Stenson, who wrote that post, clearly isn't the biggest fan of YouTubers and bloggers. He's even previously produced a House of Cards-style parody called "House of Influencers".

This time, though, the social media influencer in question bit back.

Later the same day, Elle Darby -- the vlogger behind the email -- uploaded a video titled "i was exposed (SO embarrassing)":

"As a 22-year-old girl who's running her own business from her home, I don't feel like I did anything wrong in that," says Darby, describing how she sent out several emails to hotels in advance of a trip to Ireland she was planning with her partner.

Following The White Moose Café's Facebook post, though Darby says she was inundated with abuse from people who'd worked out her identity.

"All because I had gone to this certain hotel and emailed them politely, offering them a business idea, a business proposal, a collaboration idea, with nothing but the purest intentions," she says.

"They then decided to take that email, which I'd written to them in confidentiality, and blast it over their social media pages with nothing but malicious intent."

Things then escalated in predictable fashion. Soon, both the hotel andDarby were being sent a torrent of both support and hate, depending on which side of the argument people fell on.

Later that same night, Stenson shared another post on social media:
