Default Re: Attention whores who take advantage of horrible events (VT -relate

people that spend a vast majority of their time online typically have little live social interaction.

facebook and other outlets are their form of a 'watercooler'

by posting their 'condolences', genuine or not, allows them to feel connected to a large community. something they typically do not get IRL.

i see little or no harm in this. everyone expresses themselves differently.
