A little after 1am ET this morning, a friend text me to tell me that the Occupy Wall Street protestors were getting kicked out of Zuccotti Park, their home for the last two months. AND that the action was being streamed live online.
I couldn’t jump out of bed and grab a bag of popcorn quick enough.
Here are some of the tweets that were derived from my brain while watching the soap opera take place live…
Nothing gets me out of bed quicker than a text from a friend saying #OWS is getting raided and I can watch the shit show live online.
They chant “the whole world is watching.” Yes, we are watching. And we’re laughing. Hand me the popcorn! #OWS
Occupying private property has NOTHING to do with your first amendment rights. Please spin a different way and try again. #OWS
MAYBE IF WE SCREAM LOUDER PEOPLE WILL ACTUALLY TAKE US SERIOUSLY! I’M SPECIAL! #OWS
EVERYBODY SIIIINNNGGG!!! The paaaaaaarty’s ovveeeeerrrrr… It’s time to call it a daaaaayyyy… http://youtu.be/8LxJMYeqgUQ #OWS
Cop: 2 plus 2 equals 4. Protestor: NO IT’S NOT! YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE LIKE THIS! #OWS
I’d be pissed if they threw away my house tent, too. Do you know how much NYC real estate appreciates in price in 60 days?! #OWS
The whole world is watching? 20k viewers. 6 billion people on planet Earth. Yeah, don’t think so. #OWS
Don’t worry, Mr. Protestor. They sell new tents at Walmart in New Jersey. #OWS
All NYPD really needs is a bunch of old guys yelling “Get off my lawn you whipper snappers!” at the protestors. #OWS
