I get where you're coming from, Stoss, but what about everyone elses "OMG IM SO HORRIBLE AT LIFE" threads? And their myspace status updates of being a failure at this or that? Or even their blogs of how much fail is in their life? When I see it, I do what they should do in the event that they see something they don't want to see; I turn my head away and don't say anything. Or, it's more like I'll ask them what's wrong and try to help and all I get is this "well you can't help me" kind of answer. So what the hell?
The thread didn't come off as boasting at all. A few people were actually able to see it for what it was, which I was thankful for. And shit, if people can't deal with a thread about someone having something that they don't, well then, they might as well just shut themselves away for life seeing as to how that's
LIFE in the first place! You can never have what someone else has, and there's always someone out there that's bigger and better than you tenfold. I don't sit there and cry about it.
It reminds me of the "show yourself" thread where Courtney was posting pics of her and her boyfriend. Jealous assfucks ran all over the pics and it was just ridiculous. I swear, people can't just be happy for someone. Or at least not say anything at all if they're gonna cry about it.
