Old woman dying of cancer didn't have the common courtesy to at least scribble down something more interesting for you to browse for 5 minutes on the internet later. What a shame.
- Luc 13y agoWhat the hell. It's a perfectly reasonable thing to remark on. It was presented as a conundrum, and it turns out it's something disappointing to the grandparent. You're the one dramatising things.
- cobrausn 13y agoThe 'boring' remark is the only thing that set me off. The post without that would seem reasonable - as it stands though, it looks like someone complaining about not having something more interesting to read about, not someone expressing disappointment there wasn't something more meaningful to her heirs.
- Luc 13y agoSeems reasonable to express disappointment at the decoded message. I'm not sure why you're trying to be the white knight in this.

- deaconblues 13y agoSon of a bitch!
- sliverstorm 13y agoAgreed, boring is definitely a value judgement and as such kind of inappropriate.
- eplanit 13y agoIt's not so much about dramatizing, he's simply a dick.
- cobrausn 13y agoFinally, someone who understands me. Although this is the first time I've been called both a dick and a white knight in the same thread. I'll chalk that up as a win.
- yetanotherphd 13y agoIn HN we reserve consideration and respect for people who can't afford the rent in San Francisco. An old woman dying of cancer deserves none. She was probably a homophobe too!
