The Palace of Westminister's iconic clock tower, Big Ben Tower, was officially renamed Elizabeth Tower on Tuesday in honor of Queen Elizabeth's 60th year on the throne. (Big Ben itself, the great bell inside the tower, keeps his name.)
Still, like clockwork, another Twitter parody account was made in response.
The account, @BigBenIsAngry, is not pleased about the 153 year-old landmark's name change. Check it out:
Why hasn't Stonehenge been renamed? I 'rock' way harder.— Big Ben is Angry (@BigBenIsAngry) June 26, 2012
So, I've been meaning to ask, what do you guys think of my outfit today?— Big Ben is Angry (@BigBenIsAngry) June 26, 2012
Don't act like you don't want to climb this.— Big Ben is Angry (@BigBenIsAngry) June 26, 2012
The account jokingly claims to be the "English translation" of an older Big Ben Twitter parody, @big_ben_clock -- which has nearly 250,000 followers, yet only tweets "BONG" various times, depending on the time.

"We started joking about it in the office, and I thought I'd take the fun to Twitter and see what kind of reaction I'd receive," the account's creator told Mashable.
