This made me smile

It so reminds me of programs like Eastenders and Coronation Street, even at Christmas folk on it are dieing all over the place, dare to pull a cracker and the house goes up in flames.

People seem to like hearing about things going wrong rather than the good things, that’s why I don't watch the news or read the papers, they both deliberately pick the negative stories. I wonder why we are expected to care about some nasty fate that has befallen someone thousands of miles away that we've never heard of before far less know them and were powerless to anything about. Are we to carry the burden of the world on our shoulders, I have enough on my plate as it is.

Note : I should off course add we should care if it us causing the nasty fate that has befallen someone thousands of miles away...
