Spent the good portion of the morning dealing with the most negative person at work–and it just sucks the life out of you. Why does every good thing need to be turned into a negative? Just like the classic SNL skit “Debbie Downer” this person is just finds the negative in everything and is rotten to be around.
Don’t be a “Debbie Downer”
Ever seen a comment online just set people off? Well I watched it first hand this week and its not pretty. One comment sent in the heat of the moment on facebook, just ballooned and went nuclear all in the matter of a few hours. People using all CAPS, yelling, and unfriending. Just stunning what can happen.
The moral of the story, PLEASE think before you post!!!!!!

Tommy talks to all the cowardly people in the newspapers who hide behind their avatars and leave vile and venom filled comments regarding the Arboleda family who was selected as an Extreme Makeover Home edition recipient. These comments are just terrible. From wanting to know what they did to deserve this to pointing fingers at how big their family is and it’s their fault for having so many kids to why not spend the money on other more deserving families. One person even said “he has a masters why not get a better job?” Is this really what this is all about? NO!!! It’s about making a dream come true. It’s about the community and coming together. How amazing is this for the people and town of Neenah. The exposure is wonderful and the good will, over the top awesome! Why can’t we all just be thankful for this family? Why can’t we all just love serving and helping others in need? Why must we cut down the process and chastise the family?
Can’t we just be happy for them? Remember kids… if life was fair, none of us would be there. Never forget that.
