I love the ever so brave anonymous people.
I just received this comment on my Anna Nicole entry, anonymous of course;
Maybe we should have a little more compassion. After all, we ALL have demons or are you perfect. Sorry./\
Where was I being un-compassionate?
I said Trimspa can't be good for your heart. Neither of the two women who commented were being rude either.
We're all pretty much in shock like the rest of the world on her death.
Trimspa is being sued yet again, for false claims.
Trimspa is made of speed. Speed messes with your heart.
How would I know that?
Because I am not perfect.
I have used drugs including speed.
I've posted about my past "demons" as you call them, plenty of times.
I prefer not to call it a demon though because it's not, to me.
To me, my drug use was a recreational past time that turned addiction.
I went to rehab, got myself clean and all of that jazz.
Would you like a list of all the drugs I did? It's pretty damn big.
No one here was throwing stones. I know I don't live in a glass house and really, who would want to? All those windows to try and keep clean so people can peer in and make judgments.
I honestly don't know why people feel the need to go around leaving comments like this on blogs anonymously.
It's silly.
Use an email address that won't bounce cuz it's fake. Heck, don't even use your real name if you're afraid the big bad blog author is somehow going to find you, just have some balls to back yourself up with.
When you post anonymously, you do leave yourself open to public posts like this one.
If you had used a real email address, we could have discussed my "demons" and uh, compassion, privately.
Comments
I hate these cowardly anonymous commenters, too. They deserve it when you diss them in public.
I spoke from experience, as well. The anony-coward can get bent.

I posted about her death over at my livejournal and what happened THERE was insensitive and cruel. I read your comment about her death and didn't see anything lacking in compassion.
What these people did (it wasn't in my journal, but a friend started it in his) were pictures of her and inappropriate comments. One such pic showed a body (presumably hers) being rolled into the coroners office/hospital and then the person added the caption "How do you like my body now?!" It's disgusting. Then they made a contest of it to see who could come up with the most disturbing quote/pic. I was shocked.
I mean, I didn't like the women per se. I did feel bad for her, though. She had such extreme highs and extreme lows and the pressure of it all took hold of her and she never could escape the demons. When she lost her son that pretty much sealed the deal on her demise.But she had friends and family and they've all suffered so much right along with her. This has just got to be gut wrenching. People are almost assuming that just because her death really isn't surprising, that it's undeserving of sympathy, of compassion.
