Left is the DQ near my office. Consistently does that. Right is the DQ in the next town over.

I mean this as softly as possible:

It's not your job to shout at people online and be negative about things in relation to your personal past traumas.

You might be intending it as help, but you're just coming across like a raging asshole.

This sort of behavior is a sign that you have a lot of shit to work through still. I'd expect that this sort of aggressive admonishing didn't work on you, and is part of that shit you have to work through. Don't perpetuate it.

From: Someone raised by a narcisist anxiety riddled wino with emotional regulation issues, and an absentee emotionally unavailable depressive man with ADHD.

Not trying any sort of one upmanship, just highlighting that plenty of people have personal traumas. Try to not make it the world's problem to deal with.

Few things:

  1. Appreciate ya.
  2. I'm neither shouting or trolling.
  3. Don't eat garbage.

It seems to me that people here are getting really upset by the idea that buying a sugary treat commercial product is trashy. Growing up I had no choices other than trash. Now I'm going to call out trashy behavior when I see it. Eating junk food is trashy.
