We had a death in the family at the weekend. A man that to be fair, didn't like anyone and wasn't exactly popular himself. He treat people awful sometimes, especially my grandmother who he treat like a slave.
Anyway, I've just been on facebook and saw a status thing from my cousin. A cousin who routinely took the piss out of this man, called him names and laughed at him behind his back. This cousin has also kept himself away from the family for years, not bothering with anyone, walking past us in the street etc.
And the status said
"I am so shocked by the sudden passing of Grandad Pete. Words cannot express how much I am hurting. Rest in peace big man, you will be missed".
For a start, none of us EVER called him Grandad Pete! He would turn in his grave if he heard anyone call him that! And how bloody two faced and false can you get??? he hasn't bothered with anyone in the family for years and all of a sudden he's cut up about the death of someone he only used to take the piss out of anyway??
And he has loads of messages of support telling him to stay strong and people are thinking of him.
I don't know why it has annoyed me so much but I feel so infuriated. So like him to take the opportunity to gain a load of attention.
