The sensitivity problem.....

This is in reference to cookie77 's recent post about John's asinine, demeaning, self-serving and ignorant prattling about April being a princess. Simply put, John doesn't feel especially bound to consider the feelings of the people in his life. No matter how often he's told that his comments hurt, he charges merrily on and getting a bug up his boxers when people dare tell him to have a nice cup of STFU before saying something he knows will hurt. The worst of it is that he can dish it out but he has never been able to take it. There's a very good reason for that; John is a weak, fragile, crouching sack of crap who not only is too squishy inside to cope with life's minor disappointments, he feels that he must share the burden. It's not just him that pulls this sort of annoying stunt, though; Elly, Mike and Liz are also amazingly thin-skinned jerks who tell the people they smugly disrespect to lighten up and not take themselves so seriously. We're not dealing with adults, here; we're dealing with mean, spoiled and stupid children who whine piteously about their own feelings and shrug off the pain of others because it's not theirs to deal with.
