Celebrities have been kickin’ up a twit-storm lately.
The Examiner reports that, last Thursday, Demi Moore saved a fan from suicide through her Twitter page. The fan, known as “sandiguy,” sent a tweet to Moore saying, “I’m just wondering if anyone cares that I’m gonna kill myself now.” Moore responded with supreme sang froid, heroically SPAM-ing her 400,000 acolytes, one of whom contacted the police.
We at Generation Bubble can only imagine “sandiguy’s” surprise when she saw her own cry for help BCC’d her.
But life saved turned to love lost when the past week saw Lindsay Lohan twitter paramour Samantha Ronson to the curb. The bitter, expletive-laden communique, intercepted en route, inevitably became grist for the gossip mill.
Here’s the Dear-John twit in full (though, regrettably, with expurgations):
should you end it if the one person in the world fails to love, hold/comfort, apologize, and CHERISH you the night before jail? LIARS R COWARDS cuz they don’t know what they got til it is far gone. and people-if you [expletive redacted] love someone. PUT UR PRIDE A-[expletive redacted] -SIDE AND JUST LOVE THEM BACK! do not ever dj before calling if they RE [expletive redacted] ABOUT TO GET ARRESTED FOR CHASING YOU TO MAKE YOU [verb redacted].
Leave it to Generation Y to being able to channel such Homeric rage into a 140-character limit. Qualification, embellishment, even common courtesy, only impede such spontaneous heartfarts as “PUT UR PRIDE ASIDE AND JUST LOVE THEM BACK.”
Tweet, Muse!
