NFT: Drug recovery more important than sucesss? ??

Zebrka : 5/24/2016 7:02 am
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.

Not to insult you or your son, but this Joel fellow might simply be more popular with his circle of friends than your son is with his.
Joel has stolen money and ditched my boy

Who gives a shit if person A has more likes than person B. Talk about getting upset over nothing.

Was not graduating going to potentially kill your son and/or lead to a damaged life for he and those around him?
So your sons a college  
ctc in ftmyers : 5/24/2016 7:11 am : link
grad and your pissing a fit over his social media life?

Think about that a little.

Tim in Mystic was outted, it's hard to take these things seriously, but...
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.
just a little looking whats wrong with that?  
Zebrka : 5/24/2016 7:13 am : link
he graduated almost two weeks ago...Joel's the idiot that fucked with drugs (started smoking lil bit of pot with ricky g) then became Mr. Drugs ...it's amazing how we still stick up for the junkie but put aside someone who does something with their life (and has never done drugs to boot)
Being a junkie is harder than going to school for

You really have none. Facebook is not reality.

Congrats to your son for graduating college. Now tell him to get off the computer and go make a friend or two, hunh?

If it's public, let's all like it.
Did you also rant on FB when he got dumped by a girlfriend?

Let him live his own life instead of you trying to live it for him. Maybe your actions are why he has limited friends
I know I'm feeding the troll...

But seriously, you need to get a life. Your boy is a grown man now. He can handle his own business without his daddy protecting him.

I'd even go so far as to say it is a lot easier.

even the troll can't keep his priorities straight.

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.

maybe you should look in the mirror Zebra. Look in the mirror!!!

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
By the way

Patrick77 : 5/24/2016 9:51 am : link
I like the guy already. Probably way cooler than your boring virgin son.
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.

interesting that he complains about how people react today while the same theme took place in the Bible from the distant past. Guess he is not a Church goer or not very good at picking up the lessons put forth there.

same people who feed the troll are liking Joel  
WideRight : 5/24/2016 10:05 am : link
Society can be separated from the individuals in that society. Society is in fact very impressed with your sons accomplishments and optomistic about his future. That is absolutely fantastic.

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.

You have my condolences in this obviously sad time for your family. It's horrible that all of your son's hard work has been nullified by a drug addict's obvious attempt to steal his thunder. I dream of the day my son graduates from college so he can reap the benefit of all the fucking likes on social media, but I am hesitant to even send him now after hearing of this travesty of justice. I hope you and your son can someday get past this. Good luck.
Hey, Joel...

Wow,  
NJGiantFan84 : 5/24/2016 12:12 pm : link
You obviously have no understanding of addiction. You should do some research about the topic so you do not sound so foolish when discussing it.

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.

Why the fuck...  
Chris in Philly : 5/24/2016 12:21 pm : link
are people still responding seriously?
It sounds like your son kinda sucks.  
Mike in Long Beach : 5/24/2016 12:22 pm : link
Tell him to be more popular and maybe that piece of paper will get more likes.
