This is bullshit. My son graduatedd college in May and he only got 40 likes on Facebook picture of him with the degree and his best friend (Joel) on the same day posted he was clean for one year and Joel got 233 likes for his drug free announcement.
Why do we live in a day and age where we praise someone for once using drugs and not using them but someone with a degree gets left out in the cold.w anna know something funny? My son has 340 more friends than my friend Joel has and they have 280 mutual friends so basically the same people are seeing this. All of my sons friends from high school seem like their jealous countless countless.
I left a little comment and everyone called me an asshole, i guess common sense isn’t a thing of today...or maybe I sense a bit of jealously in the whole conditoning. this whole little thing says a lot of noticing about society. i guess im just a grumpy old man.
Think about that a little.
yeah. you're an asshole. Pissed that son didn't get enough likes? this is what passes for a social crisis these days?
Plus, if your son is anywhere near average, he probably drank when he shouldn't have or done drugs. he didn't get addicted, luckily. addiction is far, far harder to overcome than getting a college degree.
no efforts just a flick of the back and yor on your wrist crying
Stopping being a junkie is hard.
Congrats to your son for graduating college. Now tell him to get off the computer and go make a friend or two, hunh?

Next time, try using English.
Is there a person on here who does?
I'd even go so far as to say it is a lot easier.

Last week you were bitching about social media. This week, you are pissed not enough Facebook recognition has been given.
Trying hard and failing at the trolling thing.

If it were me I'd say
I’m starting with the man in the mirror
I’m asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
Uh oh, a Whammy!
Put some thought and effort in for fuck's sake. Where is your pride?
We should all scrape some money together and send it to Joel.
I'm actually surprised your loser fake son has 40 friends on Facebook.

Individuals within the group are inadequate envious pricks who want to feel good about them themselves on social media. They are not liking Joel for going sober. Its a combination of condescension to make themselves feel better, and hopping on the bandwagon for the 50% chance that he relapses so that they can pity him some more.
And complementing your son doesn't make them feel good about themselves.
I also think you need to look into this need for acceptance. Getting likes on facebook shouldnt matter to anybody the day their son graduates. Pretty sad if you ask me. Enjoy the moment, letting something so childish bother you so much that you comment on it is not a way you want to go through life. Likes on facebook shouldnt make you more or less proud of any accomplishment.
Never bet against the stupidity of the American public.
- comparison is the antithesis of joy - if you are constantly comparing yourself to others, whether it's money, size of your house, # of likes, you will never truly be happy
- 40 facebook likes (what your son received) is nothing to sneeze at
- generally speaking, facebook friends are less likely to "like" a self-congratulating post for a nice but "normal" achievement (look at me, I got my degree!/won an ultramarathon!) than a post admitting to overcoming weakness/sadness due to challenges and obstacles in their life (and in both cases), a lot less than a great picture
- drug addicts can face some pretty dire consequences (homelessness, jail, deterioriation, death) and so progress to overcoming that is likely going to generate sympathy and support
maybe we don't understand addiction because we weren't stupid and knew better...to not to fucking do drugs?
i bet you all love narcan like a bunch of "free thinking liberals" do ...no wonder the Chinese and everyone else hates us (USA)
Hell yes!!!!. How else to come down when you OD on heroin?
Except please don't call me a liberal. That's like banning material.
Many on here can attest to that.
That is all.

Your 'son', just like you, is a giant, whiny, pulsating vagina.
the other guy will only ever get a pat on the back, and the false comraderie of other junkies, slip back into his drug addled life style, spend his middle age panhandling and sleeping under freeway bridges and die alone in a drainage ditch on a cold and wet night.
so cut the other guy some slack and live with the satisfaction that your son's rewards are all in his future.
and be satified that even if others dont know, you and your son do.

This schmuck's idea of a liberal is so far removed from the reality that we need not even consider it. By the way, his son is gay and gets it on with Friesian horses.
So is he that guy caught in the NW screw'n horses a few years ago?

I suspect the he is. Like Father, like Son. Or perhaps, monkey see, monkey do.

B.
As Rodney Dangerfield said, "I told my kids, 'Someday, you'll have kids of your own.' One of them said, 'Someday, so will you.'"
Does it even matter? It’s the same old shit. Troll posts are an easy one on BBI, old timers come and insult the people who “fall for it” or someone posts a “this troll post sucks” jab at the OP and gives them a low trolling grade.
Sometimes, I guess the topic presented by the troll was engrossing enough for people to respond whether they believe "the story" or not. I’m actually questioning my daily life because I’ve never done drugs and nobody likes my Facebook posts as much either (sad face) …and now I’m worried why the “The Chinese” doesn’t like me/us…
Hint: This BBI entry on May 25th, 2016 was mostly sarcasm.
Dude...don't talk about Greg like that.
How many times a day do we read "I didnt read the whole thread, but here's what I think"? A lot. That hot take is clearly more important than the others.
Anyway, I guess dupes and trolls must be good for business.

You have to admit...some of the longest threads have been started or at least dominated by trolls and dupes because most of us can't help but engage them. And long threads are always good for business.
A thread like this is, though, is so fucking stupid but sometimes you get those “troll aside” posts and an actual good interaction between quality BBI members.
Man, is that any way to talk to someone with the kind of rack I've got??

My apology. I stand corrected. Nice 'stache.
I wonder how many "likes" you've received with that picture. Most definitely more than some douchebag graduating from some shit school with a shit degree.
So if you aren't talking about Greg...who are you talking about? Maybe leatherneck570...I heard that dude is all full of shit.
Hahaha, I'm hoping people keep giving Zebrka advice just to get at Chris :D
