Interjecting their life's stories into comment sections to videos, articles .etc that wouldn't otherwise warrant it. I see too much of it.

I'm watching wrestling videos and there's people in the comment section going on about how their relatives died to some diabetic condition. I would read some article and there's pockets of people going on and on about depressing stories. I'm not sure half of the time if it's people whoring for attention or people who are that misdirected that they feel that they've got to go off on something completely unrelated like that.

I wish I could care, sometimes, but really I want some escapism and I don't appreciate people having to remind others about shitty reality.
