Since I’ve turned into a Twitter recluse*, while the JHS graduation speech played in another window, I figured I’d to watch the Twitter reaction to it and watch for trolls.
I was amazed that pretty much everyone, even the Republicans, stuck to being positive about it. You know this is the internet, right? The Id’s Electronic Litterbox? Why aren’t you writhing in righteous white man fury like they are on the Joplin Globe’s Facebook page?
I guess not many people felt like taking the winds out of the sails of graduating students who were also tornado victims. There were only two that I thought were screencap worthy. I’ll share them with you.
First up is @JustHorrified.
Christ, what an asshole.
And this one…well, this one….
This one raises a very good point! Where WAS Obama when the Joplin hurricane stroke?!?
*Oh my god, this is just SAD. It’s sad to TYPE. What’s happened to me?
I hate Twatter & Fagbook or I’d be over there bolstering the jerk population.
I like how you spiced up your Ludditism with misogynistic and homophobic slurs. Trés edgy!
Joplin hurricane? Wow. Of course it’s an easy mistake to make because MIssouri has a lot of cities built on ocean beaches. Oh wait.
About the Obama comment, one of the people a few blocks from me was also hit, and he wrote “Obama go home” on the remains of his house right before the memorial service. I was like “Seriously? He comes here to help us and that’s the kind of message you make?” Ugh.
