Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown
let it be welcome

Have you no sense of humor? It was supposed to be a humorous parable written by some nutcase Canadian, and Chris brings it to the board. Now you're trying to be the high and mighty and take offense to a joke. God, sorry it's not a banana dancing to the "peanut butter jelly time" song, but try to just take it as a joke and let it go.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

Nope.
Try not taking everything too personally and I'd not say something like that. The parable was a joke. It was posted twice that it was a joke. You still pick at it and take offense to it. You're not poor. You're not on welfare. You're not even Canadian. Just read it and laugh. That's what jokes are made to do, make people laugh, not inspire people to say why it is "politically incorrect" or "insensitive" or whatever else you feel is wrong with it.

I don't find it funny when people make assholish statements even in jest. And I said so. How is that any of your business? Don't get all high and mighty and tell me how I should feel about things. If you thought it was funny, fine. But don't push your opinions on me. What do you care what I think, and what do I care what you think?
If anyone should lighten up here, it's you.
