Holy hell. People like that just make me rage. Seriously, what the fuck. Where on earth do people get off with stuff like this?? I live on less than $200 a month but I don't expect people to bail me out nor do I ask for donations, especially for something as vain as laser eye surgery. I want a new computer, I want an iPod, I want a new camera, but you're not seeing me ask people to chip in to "help" me buy one.
And seriously, dude, I would so not unfriend you over this. I totally agree with you 150%. If I could give to the cyclone victims I would, even though the aid isn't getting to them, but still...that's besides the point. I donated to 9/11 victims, I donated to tsunami victims, I donated to Katrina victims, I've given to friends in need. I give where I can when I can. But I will NEVER ever give someone money just so they can have a cosmetic procedure done.
