This would be funny, were it just a parody......but it's the trials and tribulations of living in the U.S.
I'm talking about the store "Build-a-Bear", where you can take your child and construct the bear you want. Well, they offered the deal of the cost only being the price of your child's age. Hundreds of people showed up at all the Build-a-Bear stores. There were very long lines. The company soon realized that the lines were too long to accommodate and closed the stores, but handed out coupons for a certain amount off a bear, some other time. They interviewed some of the parents........Oh the humanity! Oh the tragedy of it all. "Our child went home in tears!!"
Are you kidding me?? People stood in line for this for hours and then were devastated when they were turned away? What an un"bear"able tragedy!! Why must we live with such outrageous sadness/stress/ injustice/unfairness??
Now think about those 12 boys and their coach in that cave in Thailand, and how they responded to being in there for 10 days without food or warmth or much light, not knowing if they would live or die.
Get a life, America!!
