“Everyone likes to be told that everything’s going to be okay,” said Dr. Emil Dahl. “And the people posting these ultimately worthless comments get to feel like they did something good for a stranger. Ordinarily, such platitudes are innocuous, but it becomes dangerous when people like Mr. Stoltz put too much faith in the power of internet comments. He was so encouraged by his anonymous online supporters that he cavalierly decided to forego my attempts at treatment, feeling it was unnecessary. The last time he left my office, he simply said, ‘Thanks, doc, but I got this’ while giving me double-finger cannons.”
Wonderful
“You got this” doesn’t mean you don’t have to make an effort! That’s on him.
Rather inconsiderate of him
Absolutely no respect for his fans.
he straight up ruined my day smh
Lemmy would have cured him.
Nothing a good bean-laden poop hold-in won’t cure!
Bin laden?
Bin laden bean laden was suffocated by satan.
This is so sad, can we get 50K likes?
It’s not too late, he’s still got this!
“Here’s how he can still have this”
Should have used Reddit in conjunction with Facebook thoughts and prayers.
Anyone remember that gawker journalist who faked being in his last hours with cancer ?
