‘PATHETIC’: On Twitter, ‘more people give a crap about National Donut Day’ than D-Day

It's D-Day, yet *&^$# National Donut Day is trending on twitter. Society, go choke yourself.

But seriously folks, it’s weird that I’m hearing more about donuts than d-day.

Ask someone "Do you know what today is?" If they say "It's national donuts day!" you have every right to slap them. Correct Answer: "D-Day"

On this day, 70 years ago, more than 9,000 allied troops died invading Normandy. D-day does not stand for donut day. pic.twitter.com/sKeaR8DIV8

How about you all think of the troops that died 70 years ago today on D-day, while you enjoy your free donut. Society you are all PATHETIC

Look, I'm glad it's "donut day" but it's actually the anniversary of D-Day. WWII priorities people.

The D in D-Day does not stand for Donut. Let's stop trending "Happy National Donut Day" and start trending #DDay & #DDay70. C'mon, America!

If it's more important to you that today is National Donut Day than the 70th anniversary of D-day then I feel sorry for you.

Although it's national donut day, we should take a step back and also remember that on this day 70 years ago D-Day happened #thankful

It's sad that Happy National Donut Day is trending in the US but not D-Day. It just shows what kind of country we live in #smh

The fact that kids think that Donut Day is more important than the real D-Day should tell you everything you need to know about America

70 years later and we're trending Donut Day on D-Day. Is this the society you want to remember living in? #MakeADifference

I'd be willing to bet more people will celebrate National Donut Day than the anniversary of D-Day today and that's really sad.

Good morning! Watching All the D-Day 70th Ceremonies! It's sad that people would rather talk about Donuts or Labron then Our HEROES!

I'm sorry but screw national donut day today is the 70th anniv. of D-Day there aren't a lot of vets from WW2 left we need to honor them

Double D-Day: 1) In 1938 Salvation Army declared Donut Day to honor those that served donuts to WWI soldiers2) D-Day – WWII, 1944
