• Story of a spoiled brat. Cry, cry, cry, whine, whine, whine......
  WoW! What a crybaby! Pathetic. He comes from a good family with money and lots of privileges but whimpers about his "pain". Hey, buddy, try working to help support your lower class family and watching your Mom die for lack of affordable medical care like I did. I am bipolar like this jerk, too.
