I hate the martyr people

Posted on Thursday, Sep 4, 2003 at 12:00 AM in

We all know a martyr person:

  • Anything that goes wrong in their day means the universe is against them,
  • They always misinterpret events in a way that makes them the injured party,
  • Someone or everyone at their workplace is out to get them,
  • Mundane tasks are too mundane to get done because they're too busy being persecuted,
  • Choices they've made in life were never wrong on their part, the world just didn't let them work out in their favor.

How do you deal with a martyr person?

Just nail them to any spare crosses you have lying around. That way you can be sure they will be quickly forgotten by everybody.

Oh. Wait. Never mind :)
