jackattack: Nothing like starving children to serve as useful props in any holiday celebration. Brilliant sales pitch -- so sensitive. #portalocityfail

[momslilassassin]

callmeben: @jackattack Right? And way to bury the real problem with portal spottiness in an AD. #portalocityfail

[bitten_notshy]

jackattack: @callmeben Read right past that. No offer of refunds, of course. #portalocityfail

[momslilassassin]

callmeben: @jackattack Why start now? Paid through the nose for emerg. portal, STILL had 3 transfers. #portalocityfail

therealtonystark: @browniepoints Think having a parents from some alternate universe precludes me from the discount?

[batwaffles]

browniepoints: @therealtonystark You know what discounts are? Well, I'm impressed.

WWIII: Okay, but what is @Portalocity planning to do for people who have found themselves stranded or redirected due to shoddy service?

[vanillajello]

illegalpants: @WWIII give them free orphans. duh.

[not_a_parakeet]

WWIII: @illegalpants Just what I always wanted. "Please, sir? Can I have some more?"

[vanillajello]
