The Hamptons may seem like the playground of the Rich and Famous on reality TV shows bearing the name "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous," but in reality, they are equally synonymous with "Sharehouses put together via Facebook Groups." Case in point: This group of pretty young way too old things meeting up last night at the W hotel on 49th and Lexington to solidify their summer in the Hamptons sharehouse plans.
The (open) invitation for last night's festivities:
Come by next Wed at the W hotel on 49th and Lex in the Oasis Lounge Area.

Sure they are older than you but big deal. They look like they are enjoying themselves. Dissing them because of their age is petty and shows your immaturity. Nice going Ms. Hruska. Really showing your true colors.

why is this even an article? why should i (or anyone, for that matter,) care if a bunch of middle-aged middle-management nobodys rent a house in the hamptons? is this a cautionary tale, or were there simply no glamourous, pretty people to pick on today?
