Okay, here goes:
I am sick to death of pretentious, snobby attitudes and so many people who think that things buy happiness and all those advertising companies that work so hard to make people believe that ridiculous notion.

(but I have nothing, of course, against the companies that make products (like running shoes) that help people stay (or get) healthy and fit…)

Oh, and parents who don’t play with their kids b/c they think they’re “above that.”

Sorry to hear about the butthead in the elevator.
“Pshaw!” (as my kids say) to him.

Um, idiots. Sorry.

I don’t really need to be worried about catching anyone’s deficient immune system — I’ve got one of my own, thanks!

I have nothing witty to say but sorry you have to deal with that. People can be so stupid.

People suck. Plain and simple…the more educated people become the more stupid they are…I am speechless other than that I just uttered. I am in awe of your restraint…seee…I wouldve let my mouth spew. And let them know how misinformed and uneducated they really are…igits…(See my g works!)

lmfao … i know, i know, it’s not funny. but if i don’t laugh at those people i will have to kill them with my own two little hands.

after my bone marrow transplant, i was not allowed out in “public” unless i wore a little surgical mask over my mouth and nose. i went to the grocery store all of once during that time. people avoided me, wouldn’t make eye contact, muttered horrible things just loud enough for me to hear, told me i shouldn’t be out where i could give them AIDS (it was non-contagious CANCER, you flipping idiots), etc, etc, etc.

i suppose these are the same people who love to do “a complete turnabout, a 360 degree shift.”

I’ve had similiar experiences with people thinking I’m contagious and a possible health-hazard to them when in actuality the exact opposite is true. Sometimes I’d like to tape record the ignorant comments and ramblings to play them back at a later time.

I’m sorry you’re having to go through this…

I got nuthin’. I’m too tired to complain. How annoying is that? I love complaining.

I hope everyone around you feels better soon. I’d hate for them to get you sick.

Oh Dan…I know EXACTLY how you feel. and Remicade = YUCK.

I am FOREVER sick because of my meds and my health and people really do treat you like you are ‘contagious’

I am really sorry that YOU have to deal with it, but you are not alone.

Maybe WE can start our own colony. The No Immune System community and we dont have to go to work, or pay bills, or stress (all of those just make us sicker anyway) and we can sleep til noon, and blog all day.

If only!

I know this sounds trite, but it DOES get easier with time. But it is still VERY annoying.

Ps Happy St Patrick’s Day! xxoo

I personally have an extreme disliking of hypocrites. I could go on about it, but this is your blog not mine, and as far as the jackass in the elevator…screw him. People are so self absorbed, all they care about is “what’s going to happen to me.” So much so that they assume everyone else is flawed, instead of their own way of thinking.
I hope that makes sense to you…it does in my head anyway.
