It's one of those days when I think people are not only stupid, they are... completely WTF.

Take a friend of mine for example. He failed his uni year and had to repeat. When he told me about it, I said I couldn't believe it, because I knew he worked hard and things, so he must've been really unlucky. Then he told me, "You know, you're the first person to give such a response." All his friends and family's immediate reactions were "you must have spent too much time with your girlfriend/on the computer/playing games", regardless whether he had a girlfriend or played comp at all or not.

Then, take Sheep as my 2nd example. She lost her wallet. As soon as mum found out she kinda shouted at her. Everybody was mean to her and made her feel stupid.

Excuse me? Where is "love" and "support", or am I missing something? Why do people love jumping to conclusion, get angry with each other for things like these and just... generally be complete fucktards?

Amen to both. So quick to condemn for simple mistakes that can happen to anyone. Granted, losing your wallet is a big thing, but you feel frustrated and stupid enough as it is without anyone else adding to it. Yes, that's one I feel strongly about, lost my purse on CHRISTMAS EVE once, all my ID, my CCs, a substantial amount of shopping cash. The utter rigamarole I had to go through to replace my ID was heinous. I would not wish that on anyone, and I certainly wouldnt't get mad at someone for it happening to her.

*having one of those days, too, much 'grrrrrr' on my mind*
