Comment on If I'm struggling with depression, I get ostracized as a "loser" that haven't accomplished anything but if I die in a tragic accident tonight, I'm a "young man with a bright future ahead"

  I thought that was the obvious subtext of the statement but apparently did not adequately account for variations in reading comprehension.

    Starting the comment with idk implies that you are starting a counter argument. As in, I don’t know if that’s true…

      lol you really tryna introduce debate etiquette to the comments section when you also answered “but you also clearly… right?” implying certainty that I did, which you were correct about.

        That wasn’t me. I’m a third party who read the conversation between the two of you and decided that your extra snark was uncalled for.

    LOL. No is not that obvious.

    Me: “Saying mean things about dead people makes you an asshole”

    You: “Yeah well my dead brother was an asshole”

    Comprehension indeed.

      It’s nice to say things about people who have passed away

      eh some people are abusive assholes who deserve to be remembered for it but sometimes a positive adult authority figure can help you process it in a way that doesn’t piss the rest of the family off so you can make the informed decision to cut them all off as an adult after they’re done paying for your college.
