People Here Love Playing Victim Olympics.


I love how people around here want to play Victim Olympics. "Oh kids are worse off them him". Sure but having cancer isn't all sunshine and rainbows. Its a documentary about a dying kid who wish was to be batman for a day and people who made it happen. If your that cynical and frankly cold hearted. Then simply dont watch it. There your problems have been solved. Is this movie made to make money, probably. But so are Documentary about starving kids in Africa. I don't think the film makers just wanted to make a fast buck. But even if they did. So the F##K what. I hate to break to you. But everyone is out to make a fast buck. Don't tell me that all of you love your jobs. It doesn't take anything away from what happened. Maybe you should start conspiracy about how the film makers and Make-a-Wish Foundation is out to control you minds with radio waves.

So true. I'm not criticizing people who are cynical about it because I'm sure they all have their reasons and it is a free country, but dang people are so bitter. Yeah it cost a lot of money, but not only were the expenses taken care of by a rich couple, but think of all the money generated by the plane tickets of people who traveled there. I'm not saying it should win an academy award, but there's no use being bitter. Kid got his wish and made new friends. Hope you never have to go through what him and his family endured. And instead of complaining, do your part to donate to organizations that will help kids like him.
