So, which makes you more sad? Is it the news that Justin Bieber’s pet hamster has died, or the fact that a dead rodent is the number one trending topic on Twitter in the United States?
To be honest, we don’t even know if PAC is actually dead. If so, old age seems to have been the culprit.
"PAC died due to his old age. Apparently, he was old." omg :'( #RIPpac pic.twitter.com/G9QO0frVKw

Perhaps it’s just the shock, but the fact that a hamster’s passing has drawn so much attention seems to have inspired some self-awareness.
Am I the only one who thinks we sound selfish for #RIPpac trend?People are dying as we speak because of serious reasons and a hamster REALLY

depressing to think that #RIPpac is trending because a hamster died when there are so many teenagers who commit suicide and go unnoticed..
