I was just Slammed today by a "friend"
Hi Everyone,
I have several conditions that preclude my working. I am not proud of it. In fact, I hate how I am. I am doing everything I can to get better, but my doctors think that my attempting to work could be really bad for me.
So I have been recommended for Social Security Disability, something I am not proud of, but I need help. I started my application and am working on sending it in. I had to take a break, so I asked a friend if he would like to get an iced tea or something at someplace convenient.
So we meet up, and I tell him what is going on, what I have been doing, and he just goes off on me. He starts telling me that people like me are the reason the country is falling apart. I am just a taker, I do not do anything good. How the hell can I afford the drink I just purchased if I am so "disabled" and "retarded". He also recommended that my drivers license should be taken away. He threw his drink down and left. He sped out of the lot and left me sitting in there with about 10 people just staring.
I felt terrible. I never wanted this to happen to me, but if my doctors say it is what I need, it is what I need. I feel really terrible about all this. I feel like I lost a friend I had for years, and what are others going to say when they find out. Thankfully my wife is %100 behind me. I still worry about my other friends. Sorry to bother you guys, I just had to vent. Thanks.

Not saying the obvious. DU is clueless.

14. If you want to know,
and it is hard to talk about after what happened. I have depression, very serious, with suicidal thoughts. I have anxiety, which, among other things makes me sick constantly. I have frontal lobe seizures which cause black outs quite often and I have autism, which, jeez, what do you want to know? Just put it this way, it is really hard to deal with people in person. There is more to say, but is that not enough?

Obvious mole is obvious.
His laundry list of complaints includes mental health and seizures (both of which require psychotropic medications), but he drinks alcohol. He has seizures of frequency and duration to qualify for disability, but he stilll has a driver's license. He also says he has autism, but his writing style belies that.
Too many contradictions. Can't be a Caver, our moles are undetectable until the reveal.

I think you underestimate the # of DUmmies that game the system, with the assistance/counsel of other DUmmies.

I totally agree. I don't really get this guy as a mole but as someone that has no idea what the DUmp actually, well, "is."

113. This story just seems too hypothetical and pat to me. Too much is left to speculation and as I read I felt it to be insincere and not believable.
Am I the only skeptic
