I guess I don’t know what cool is!
So, for those of yall that check my blog, you may have noticed a few comments from someone named “finger”. Apparently, it is now cool to ridicule a stranger with cancer on their blog site. The thing is, I think it is funny. Crazy? Yes. Rude? Absolutely. However, you gotta laugh when a stranger takes the time to write insulting comments on your blog, which they clearly just created a log-in JUST so they could write these things on my blog! I know that I could set up my site so that I would approve every comment that came my way, but why? I don’t want to monitor this site that close, and I guess I just don’t care enough! I did want to mention it so that everyone knew about it and knew that I had seen it as well. So….. it is certainly weird, but I guess to each their own!!

You know something similar happened to me on livejournal. I put up a picture that was clearly meant to be tongue in cheek and I wrote a review about it as if I took it seriously.
The thing is that anyone who actually knows me would know that I was being sarcastic, but this random douchebag decided to leave me some shitty comment.
It's like, why are you taking the time to read my blog in the first place?
The fact that this person made up a fake blogger account just to leave you a shitty message proves whoever it is has absolutely nothing to do but act like a jerk.
I saw that comment yesterday and I have to say it pissed me off. My mom was part of a cancer support listserv, and someone would constantly belittle the people there too. You gotta think that this person who commented on your blog has some serious issues if it takes doing something like that to get his jollies. Maybe he has a small winky-dink and is having trouble coping... who knows.
But being negative is not productive... I have to say though that he or she has no FREAKING CLUE about you. I say this because of the whiney comment. You have been way more than just positive on your blog all along! Even with the setbacks, your tone has always remained strong and tinged with hope that is completely obvious to anyone who reads your blog. I have come across other blogs where the author lets any little day-to-day setback in their lives become a mountain of dispair... but not you.
Keep it up, Gracie. You inspire me.
Jacqueline's comment is right on. It makes me tear up to read it because it is certainly true. It is amazingly inspiring how you've done throughout this process. You're bravery and attitude truly touch me. I think we're all giving "Finger" the finger and laughing at the same time. You just gotta say, "Whatever!"
THis is why I say I have the bestest friends in the world!! Thanks guys I appreciate the support, especially when someone makes you feel crappy!! BUT, overall it just made me think about all the crazies out there!!!
Everyone is right...you are a real inspiration in the fight against testicular cancer.
and, you finger, are an inspiration to douche bags everywhere.
you fascinate me, finger. i'm dying to know more about you. are you more the lonely asshole type or would you consider yourself more of a misunderstood wit, the sort of person who likes to stir the pot with a little provocation?
were you the kid in high school who drew anarchy signs all over your notebook?
actually, i think i love you, finger. i want to be with you. just me and you, finger... we'll ride off into the sunset of cyberspace. tell me you love me, finger... please!
