How many times you hear this whether it be on tv or not? Everybody wants a sob story of liquid encouragement. They always want us to pity them because according to them, someone told them they "wouldn't make it" or "wouldn't amount to anything".
I watched Top Chef season reunion and chef Eli Kirshtein had a made a comment about chef Robin Leventhal and her winning the challenge for playing the sympathy card. I'm not saying he's right for saying that but I do beleive that ALOT of people once they get on t.v., they feel that in order to be connected to their audience, they have to play the sympathy card.
I'm sick and tired of seeing the sympathy card being played. Booo fucking hoo!!! I just don't believe that in this day and age people are telling you "you know what Tiffany, I like you and all but you're going to fucking fail in life." That shit doesn't happen anymore!!
These days people are more positive than ever so that you can make it. They don't want to live their lives knowing they told you that you would be a fuck up and then you make it big and not give their ass any of your fortunes or even give them props for being a positive force in their lives.
So, quit the bullshit and get over it. As my friend Meka has been known to say "man up". It's quite simple. Quit going on tv and crying to get my sympathy vote. If you keep that shit up, I'll never have any respect for you.
