Twitter parties? You're having twitter parties with stupid fucking giveaways when lower Manhattan is underwater? Seriously?

Ridic- RT @nystoopmama: Twitter parties? You're having twitter parties with stupid fucking giveaways when lower Manhattan is underwater?

I mean, I realize sandy isn't affecting everyone, but show some class.

@IssaWaters If there was a catastrophe & much of an area was underwater & lives were ruined, I would skip the cell phone tw parties one time
— Tracy · Mon, Oct 29 2012 18:07:48

@IssaWaters Maybe you don't have any loves ones in harm's way, but sometimes some mom bloggers can seem a little vapid. Like tonight.
— Tracy · Mon, Oct 29 2012 18:09:05

@IssaWaters Sometimes mom bloggers (and I am one), are only ruled by the almighty $ & only care about their brand & sponsored $20 posts.
— Tracy · Mon, Oct 29 2012 18:14:29

@IssaWaters Yes, I know how to filter hash tags. It's the overall point, though, and judging by the RTs I'm not the only one turned off.

@theculturemom @pluslily @nystoopmama being in lower manhattan wtf if the race for president takes the night off so should parties.

@saving4someday @nystoopmama @pluslily it's all insensitive. If work, transportation, schools are canceled, why can't a twitter party be?
— Holly Rosen Fink · Mon, Oct 29 2012 18:41:49

@dadarocks @theculturemom @pluslily EXACTLY. I have someone arguing with me on this. It just seems tacky. Could have taken 1 night off.
— Tracy · Mon, Oct 29 2012 18:22:27

@QuirkyFusion We have to agree to disagree on this. SENATORIAL DEBATES were postponed. A stupid twitter party could have been. Respect.
— Tracy · Mon, Oct 29 2012 18:24:37

Senators postponed debates tonight. ELECTIONS ARE ON HOLD. But the banal twitter parties must go on!
— Tracy · Mon, Oct 29 2012 18:26:10

@nystoopmama @theculturemom @pluslily yahhh I'm unfollowing anyone in the #WWEmoms party. Take the night off.
— DaDa Rocks! · Mon, Oct 29 2012 18:26:59

@theculturemom @pluslily @nystoopmama I just automatically I follow anyone with stupid fucking giveaways during this time...
— saderman · Mon, Oct 29 2012 18:29:26

@theculturemom @NYstoopmama @pluslily Why not just have a #Sandy party and give away water & portable power? A #WWEMoms party is insensitive
— Sara Hawkins · Mon, Oct 29 2012 18:32:58

@thegrumbles Makes me feel embarrassed to be a blogger.
