“My Jaw Has Never Hit The Ground Faster:” 39 Times Out-Of-Touch People Got Shamed Online

They are eating the dogs.
They are eating the cats.
They are eating the pets of the people that live there.

"If you give a homeless person $100 they'll spend it in a day, if you give a rich person $100 they'll put it into savings". Yea Mason, give money to someone with no money they'll use it to meet their needs. Give money to someone who already has their needs met they can afford to put that money away for the future.

'It was God's will'...when a child dies. Nothing makes my blood boil more than that.

This is the way my B- and SIL talk about their OWN BABY. They do objectively dangerous things (like giving their infant raw milk, SIL will hold baby in a moving car instead of using a car seat) and then talk about how "this is the way we parent and if it's God's will..."
Gets my adrenaline pumping just talking about it. 

My own brother told me that my severely disabled daughter (from birth, and also not my fault ) is a manifestation of all my shortcomings 😭😔 can you imagine.

“You can just have another” After I lost my baby, I did end up having another and now have a beautiful rainbow baby, but that isn’t the point. I would’ve loved to have BOTH babies.

All the millionaires saying "we're in this together" whilst sat in the mansions during COVID. That was great 👍.

Driving past a large group of tents belonging to homeless people… “I just don’t understand why they would want to sleep outside when it’s so cold out.” Ummmmm they don’t.

Picture this: I am in high school. My mother and I are told that I have a terminal heart condition, and she takes her own life, I found her body, and my father was away on a business trip for days, and nobody knows where, until they find someone at his office that knows. So I, alone as a teen, have to handle the police, and all that. My dad comes home, decides this is a perfect time to restart his own life, and evicts me. I graduated high school homeless crashing in people's guest rooms and basements. College dreams dashed. My best friend, my only lifeline, says this:

"Will you stop pining about your mother? That was like, 6 months ago. Get over it. I lost my bomber jacket at Clyde's and you don't see me still going on and on about. For chrissake, that was back in high school."

Now in their defense, they were 17 years old, and teens say some pretty dumb things (myself included). But that was the hardest verbal slap in the face I ever got, and was the beginning of the end of our friendship.

Oh, and yeah, the "terminal" heart condition was not terminal, since this was nearly 40 years ago.

For me it's gotta be during the 2012 presidential campaign when Mitt Romney's wife went on about how the hard times they went through during their college years. Mitt even had to sell some of their stocks, just to survive. Can you imagine.

I was fortunate enough to go to a slightly pricey summer school and one of my classmates (whose parents were loaded) said "I don't see why everyone doesn't just go to private schools" and "It's so unfair that poor people don't have to pay for college".

At university, when I was searching for a new job all day every weekend and my girlfriend (now wife), who had never had a job, said “I don’t get it, why don’t you just get a job. If one my friends wanted a job… they just got one.” Found out her friends all worked for one of their parents companies. I reminded her first time she looked for a job.

I was on maternity leave and staying at my MIL's for a few days. I was worried about bills and debating about going back to week when my daughter was 6 weeks instead of 8. My MIL was asking about my mom and I told her that my mom was really sick and dealing with being sick. Aside from her MLM down line (that I hate) my MIL hasn't worked or made an income in 10 years, she lived off my FIL's social security until he died and my husband has been helping her since FIL passed.

My MIL says "Well at least she'll get some time to lay in bed and recover." I said "No she's still working," "I just don't understand why someone would work when they're so sick. It just seems so irresponsible to me." "Well not everyone has someone to help them with bills. That's why I'm going back to work 2 weeks earlier than I should."

Have you seen the Mariah Carey interview where she's surprised that "you have to pay for electricity in your country?" Because Mariah thinks that "electricity is free in America".

When told Norway has a speeding fine proportionate to income, my mother loudly exclaimed "that's discriminatory to rich people!"

A regular at my work just lost her 17y/o son in a car accident. My co-worker said to her not a week after, “I know just how you’re feeling. My son (college age) stopped talking to me six months ago and blocked me everywhere. It’s breaking my heart.” The look on the lady’s face when she said that to her is what broke my heart!

“By no means was my family well off, there were times I would only get 10 presents for Christmas.”.

"You can't be African, you look white" said by a European dude, who was a tourist in my home country, in Africa!

“I mean it’s one banana, Michael. What could it cost? 10 dollars?”

When a teacher said to me, "You're not slow like these others. It's hard to believe you grew up poor. It's almost like you're white!" I think I was 10.

One person I know does not understand why poor people cant go on holiday and said "why don't they just choose a cheap destination?"
