For your Sunday viewing pleasure, grab a coffee or hot chocolate and have a giggle.

Hehe. That's awesome.

The worst part was everyone was flaming this post, and she kept coming back for more. I mean, come on, girl! Get a brain! The thought was good, but really should have kept it to herself. We are a much more intelligent group here.

The sad part about this? Some people really do think like this. I lost a job a few years ago...you know how a friend sympathized with me? "I totally know how you feel, I lost my bonus this year." I should stress that she is now a 'former' friend.

Yeah, can't understand why she'd keep coming back for more. And she's due for a huge reality check. I will gladly give thoughts and prayers to someone who's unwell, out of work, our going through a trying time, but not getting a bonus??

I hear you BrandySun...I have a bunch of former friends too that take the cake. Same situation as yours, and include "I only spent $700 per child this Christmas, they'll have to make do will less" (giant wtf from me). And terminating friendships with some of our couple friends who were pi$$ed that we stopped coming to our Wednesday wing night meet up because ds was in the ICU (when he was 18m), and they were mad that we couldn't spare them a few hours. Sorry, my kid on the respirator struggling to live trumps wing night, dumbasses.

I feel sorry that some people lack perspective. Especially after it's been pointed out to them.

This thread is worthy of T&P - my heart is crushed for this family:

I don't even know them, and I sincerely hope that this man fights and beats the odds, he sounds like a great man. No family should have to go through this.
