saddest part is was just over an hour ago. they are an internet feed you would think they would look out the window. fuck me they are going to get hammered for this

They just tweeted this one minute ago...

@celebboutique We are incredibly sorry for our tweet about Aurora - Our PR is NOT US based and had not checked the reason for the trend, at that time our

I call bullshit! Can someone with Twitter respond to that with "bullshit?"

Don't worry...many have. I'm sorry, anyone on twitter who follows ANYONE would know this was happening.

Three reasons this was not accidental...

@celebboutique: #Aurora is trending, clearly about our Kim K inspired #Aurora dress ; )

(1) Why would you write "clearly" if you didn't know anything else was going on? You would post something entierly different like "Aurora is trending - glad so many people are liking our Aurora dress line"
(2) Why would you add a wink if it was a factual post, and not a joke?
(3) We are supposed to believe they were unaware of it - the department most dialed in to "what is going on"

Gimme a break. Apologize, don't make it worse with fucking lies.

And they're based in the UK, not some third world country. It's a top story in the news over there as well.

I think its a case of writing "clearly" when they knew there must be something else going on BUT ...
are trying to make a funny ha-ha to link it to the product they are selling AND ...
theyre too current events ignorant (or self-centric) to even look up what actually is going on

aka dumb broads

I'm giving them less credit. They are trying to claim imcompetence, but they are just straight up lying.

Morons like this belive them...
‏@sharonsteed @celebboutique mistakes happen - kudos to you for owning up to it. we're all shaken by what's happening in aurora.

But some people see through it...
- OR, a real apology: "We are sorry for being offensive."
- more like your :-)sly:)a heartless bunch of superficial people who obviously dont think before you say something
-It really undermines the sincerity of your apology if you're going to lie about it.

just read about this new AMC Theatres policy regarding disallowing moviegoers from wearing costumes starting today

did the killer slip in without questions asked because he was dressed as the joker ... carrying firearms?

I don't think so, I think since people were there in Batman character costumes nobody noticed him and what he was wearing.

If no one was wearing costumes, he would have been noticed. Not that it would have made a difference.

Is this going to lead to some unqualified goon patting me down everytime I go to the movies like they do at sporting events?

I read that he bought a ticket and at some point left the theater via the emergency exit, propped the door open, and came back in with the weapons.

On NPR they were saying he was wearing a tactical gas mask and ballistic helmet, bulletproof vest, body armor leggings, tactical gloves, dressed in all black. I'm guessing he went back to his car and changed at some point.

They were playing some clips from police recordings on the radio, it wasn't really graphic or anything but it was very hard to listen to.

How badly is this going to hurt the movie industry, too? While I hardly think we are in for a rash of homicidal nutjobs, movie attendance is going to take a hit. In a not-so-great economy, encouraging people to stay at home and not spend money on entertainment is not going to help...

You see...I'm comfortable going to the movies still. I'm not comfortable going to midnight showings in insanely crowded theaters. I have enough anxiety issues around crowds. Heck, I go into a crowded place and the only thing I can think of is "if this place goes up in flames, would I be trampled?" ...I have a problem.
