THAT PETITION !

I found out today that the petition on Change.org was started by The ChamCham (note how that was written).

Guess what, I didn't start the petition and neither did anyone close to me. I thought you should know that. Apparently, whoever did either didn't want the "credit" or thought it would be "funny" to place the "blame" on someone else.

A dead giveaway that I had nothing to do with it was the fact that there wasn't a thread posted here about the petition, especially by me. I wish someone had, because it took me a week to find out.

In case you're wondering how I feel about the petition...I am deeply insulted that anyone would think that :

1) It was flattering.

2) It was warranted.

3) That it would accomplish your misplaced "goal".

Brendan IS working. When and where he wants to at the present time.

Apparently, the interviews were a mistake too. All they did was breed more rumors, unwanted speculation, more insulting comments (that only IMDb has the class to delete). There are a worrisome amount of armchair "doctors", "psychiatrists", "body language experts" and plain old "know-it-alls" out there. And guess what ? None of you have a !%$$#&% clue.
You aren't even close !

There were other places I could have posted this but since this was my "birthplace", I chose to post it here. Feel free to pass it on.

I thought the interviews were wonderful and it was good to see him. I agree it's ridiculous how many people had to comment. I have no idea what this petition is, not sure if I want to.

Hugs and positive support to Brendan!

I saw it, but after reading the first couple of lines , it was obvious that it was written by an imposter, so I ignored it. Not sure what their goal was.

saw it swing by on Twitter. (very hard to miss with all the retweets)
The thing that is really bugging me about this petition, is the fact that no one seems to pause and think: Is this what Brendan himself would want?? I don't think so...
Also it's content is bothering me big time...

and has appeared to be very down and out, and us loyal fans feel like we are obliged to help him in any way possible.”

Bit puzzled reading that line.

Before you judge how I live my life,I suggest you take a good look at your own.

the interviews were a mistake too

no they weren't....at least not to me.
Enjoyed them very much.
It's all about what some people want you to read into them, and how others follow up on that read.
If you take things out of context and put THAT online...(like what happened with the SAD-Brendan take on the AOL interview...saw 10 seconds of it, made me queasy) people get a very different perspective on the matter and respond to THAT.

People who put something like that online are, in my opinion, not very happy with themselves.
It is kinda sad that they feel the need to feel (even if it's a little and not lasting) better about them selves, at the expense of someone elses life.

We know for a fact you created that petition based on your IP address. Now that that's cleared up, why would you want to pretend you never had anything to do with the petition? Do you think people aren't taking it seriously, or is it that your no longer a Brendan Fraser fan, because I cannot think of anything else?
