Just about 17 hours ago, comedian and “Full House” star Bob Saget unblocked a mass of people on Twitter and cryptically wished indie rock band Car Seat Headrest, specifically, his “very best.” Needless to say, it sent fans of both artists into a frenzy of confusion
Apologies to all the people I’ve blocked over the years. Just can only let positive stuff in. If I could block myself I would. And sending @carseatheadrest my very best.

What gives?
According to the sleuths at Reddit and Rolling Stone, fans of a comic called Asscastle celebrated the project’s recent anniversary by tweeting at the comic, who is featured in the work as a recurring character: “Alleged ghost of Bob Saget.”
Car Seat Headrest wrote a tribute to the comic, “The Ghost of Bob Saget,” on their 2010 album 4.
After apparently being accosted by the tweets, Saget went on a blocking rampage.
Car Seat Headrest’s Will Toledo even linked the to the Asscastle as an explanation after Saget’s “best wishes” tweet.
Bob, you were in a comic my friend @partydogge wrote a while ago! From there, it became a whole thing. https://t.co/nh7QlJb16v

All’s well that end’s well. Yet, a surprisingly rash reaction from the traditionally over-cautious Danny Tanner. (Maybe that will get us blocked, too.)
