I'm thinking of gifting myself a Nintendo Switch and getting my Sister a Kindle.

"more time with loved ones" is not a wish. It is a choice.

My dead friends and family would beg to differ with that ๐Ÿ˜…

Then it probably was a choice you didn't make then...

Lol wtf is this comment?? A person died and I wish I could spend time with them and your response is "well you probably chose not to spend time with them when they were alive."

That's a totally reasonable and measured response...

You are right, please accept my apology. That was a dumb thing to write.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

i gotta say, this is seemingly a rare thing these days. That's not always easy and I appreciate you. Absolutely accept your apology and i hope you have a fantastic day!

The implication was that it was to spend more time with loved ones after it's already too late.
