That's a given.

Because I'm trying to avoid pedantic arguments.

I guess you are. I didn't direct any of my comments toward anyone besides the people saying stuff like 'my prayers are with you'. It strikes a nerve with me because it's crap. Do you really care about the situation? Did you even read his post? He posted it here as a vent, not to have people invite themselves into his life and act like he's welcome to the Coping With Death club. Like I said before: pretty much everyone's been there and people handle it differently. Assuming you know about the situation and offering sympathy for a person that died that you don't even know is beyond shallow and responding with a standardized American Greetings-esque formality to a death just cheapens their life.
