I log onto Facebook and see the above, posted by my sister.
Yeah. My blood is boiling.
I can honestly say she is someone I love dearly. In reality, she is my step-sister, but I have always known her, never remember meeting her. She's my sister. I don't delineate between my step siblings and blood sibling.
So when I logged on and saw this my blood ran cold, and had to gather myself before I responded. Her title? "TOTALLY CRACKED ME UP!!!!!!!"
My reply: "Because adoption is a bad thing? Not funny."
Hours later she posted back: "Now you know I didn't mean it that way!! I think adoption is great...it's the brother/sister picking that cracked me up!"
My reply: "It implies adoption is bad, so it's still not funny. If I found a funny picture of an issue near and dear to your heart, would you still think it's funny? Cam's place in this family, through adoption, shouldn't be a joke."
My heart is pounding like crazy. I know my sister meant no harm, because she truly doesn't think before she speaks. It just hurt my feelings, but now I am just furious.
Ouch! Yup, that would bug me, too.
ReplyDeleteI am still pissed. She removed it from her page, but never said another word about it. :(
ReplyDeleteI had the same cringe when I saw it posted on my wall as well :p
