A MORAL PROBLEM
What is going on with you?
I SAVED A WOMAN FROM CHOKING TO DEATH BUT NOW SHE’S A
SERIAL KILLER!
Posted 15 min ago by suchadramaboi
Help! So, when I was eighteen, I was waiting at a
restaurant called The One and Only
(you know, the Polish fast food chain?) and saved a woman from choking to death
on a pierogi pancake. At the time I was very proud as I was only eighteen and
had correctly performed the Heimlich manoeuvre, which is probably the whole
reason why I decided to become a doctor. The lady and I didn’t keep in touch
but I haven’t forgotten her name, Amanda Caroline Bertram. Yesterday I was
reading the papers and saw a headline saying she had killed about thirty people
and sold their meat! Is it all my fault? I’m in shock and don’t know what to
do!
TALK 2
HER! 12 min ago by cupatea
In my
experience, talking 2 the person you’re upset with always makes it better even
if you don’t see it right away. Don’t keep all that anger bottled up!

IT’S NOT
YOUR FAULT! 10 min ago by yiogurt
I know it
may seem like your life is over and these people dying are your responsibility
since they would probably still be alive if you hadn’t saved their murderer,
but at that point you couldn’t know she was gonna murder them! And since you’re
a doctor, you’ve probably saved more people than she killed, right? If not,
keep working towards it! J

Suchadramaboi in response to the-skeptiskull: It IS
true tho!
The-skeptiskull: yeah ok bro
Suchadramaboi: fine believe whatever you want, people
are dead because of me
The-skeptiskull: oh plz people die every day because
of completely random decisions it’s called the butterfly effect go read a book.
for instance you posting on here instead of going out makes you go out a half
an hour later and boom! A car hits you as you leave. Does that make it my fault?
No!
Suchadramaboi: for your information I have read many
books, unlike you who use no punctuation. But thanks for your 2 cents since
I didn’t ask
The-skeptiskull: YOU LITERALLY POSTED IT FOR PEOPLE TO
ANSWER OH MY GOD I CAN’T EVEN WITH THIS
Suchadramaboi: Not for you.

We are a
real place! You probably haven’t heard of us because we operate only in the
West Coast! If you ever have the chance, stop by! Also, we’re really sorry to
hear this happened in one of our stores! But, as they say, our pierogis really
are TO DIE FOR!
