  • There are still women walking around in 2012 not defending themselves or pursuing goals out of fear of being called a bitch. That needs 2 go #
  • Remember: "Well-behaved women rarely make history." – Laurel Thatcher Ulrich. Embrace "bitch" as the wimpy little swat from a sad person. #
  • The word "bitch" is the achilles heel for far too many women. Gut the power out of that lame word, throw it into space, laugh. It's nothing! #
  • I laugh when women get mad at men who call them bitches. Don't give your power away. Hand them a thesaurus and keep it moving. #
  • To me, a real bitch is a coward and that applies to all genders. Cowardice 2 be a real parent. Cowardice to be accountable. Those R bitches #
  • Not only that, literal definition of bitch=not even offensive. Female dog. Waah. That's a dumbass insult. Up yr vocab/dazzle w yr adjectives #
  • Your logic implies that some women are bitches and others are not. WRONG. We all bitch sometimes. As do you #message 2/2 #

  • .@upshelp If @ups is unable to give ETA on deliveries to @soapdotcom then I won't order from @soapdotcom anymore, that's a basic service. #
  • .@upshelp @ups told @soapdotcom rep that driver didn't have a phone and they couldn't tell where truck was. it's 2012. that's inexcusable. #
  • .@UPSHelp if @ups can't give @soapdotcom ETA info then they can't promise next-day delivery, which is bad for customers and their business #
  • .@UPSHelp TY 4 quick response. It just arrived now. My issue = @ups cldn't give @soapdotcom an ETA when they called for info. Bad business. #
  • .@soapdotcom Pls update yr delivery info 2 incld that @ups will deliver next-day orders as late as 8pm. Customers need that info 4 planning #

  • I hope that #ows supporters and participants continue to do their thing through the 2012 election, remind ppl what democracy looks like. #
  • Also, #ows helped to stimulate the economy. People clicked headline links, TV coverage was watched, supplies were bought to donate. #
  • … and FINALLY acknowledge that peaceful protest is crucial to holding our elected officials and corporations accountable? #ows (2/2) #
  • Can we all finally agree that #ows protests and coverage (indie and mainstream) changed t focus t real issues: employment, healthcare (1/2) #
