My Mother's House Burned Down This Morning - General

[QUOTE=Saza;32153170]I'm just noting that everyone in here saying "can we have proof?" is being flamed to oblivion yet in other threads where it's something like this and there's no proof people are like WOW NO THAT'S NOT BELIEVABLE HECK NO. it's not your fault, I'm just saying for certain other people saying "YOU ARE THE BANE OF HUMAN EXISTENCE" etc etc to someone who asked "can I have proof please"[/QUOTE] The people that say "can we have proof" are the same people that spam "WOW NO THAT'S NOT BELIEVABLE" fyi.

It's sad that it would come to that but I'll post it if you honestly don't believe the tragedy...

[QUOTE=ProffesorAssHat;32153214]It was on the OP's fucking news station. So there's proof already.[/QUOTE] it could be anywhere! I could say this: [quote][url]http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2011/09/06/reports-7-shot-at-carson-city-ihop/?npt=NP1[/url] oh god guys my sister just got shot![/quote] see?

I'm just pointing out that people are asking for proof and being yelled at whereas in other threads EVERYONE asks "proof?!"

I've heard some crap has been going on over there (Forest Fires). I wish you luck from Indiana.

[QUOTE=grr164;32149980]EDIT: 'Dumb', and 'Funny' ratings? Have you no sympathy?... I don't want to live on this planet anymore....[/QUOTE] Don't get annoyed because people aren't giving sympathy. While sympathy is empathic and caring, it's not owed.

[QUOTE=Saza;32153099]I honestly don't understand how FP can believe someone's parent's house burned down yet talking to someone and apparently saving their life(?) is TOTALLY UNBELIEVABLE just my two cents on the situation.[/QUOTE]You ever see one of those really loud red trucks driving down the road? That's called a firetruck, it goes to places that have caught on fire, which has it so happens, is something that occurs frequently.

This is a higher amount of people attacking a OP's legitimate story than usual. What happened FP? Bad first day of High School?

The second someone posts a big event happening to them, FP has to have proof. Back on topic, that really sucks for your mom. I saw this on my local news today.

That sucks, man. Best of luck.

April 2011 54 posts Probably another 13 y/o trying to whore ratings on Facepunch, and of coarse flamming at everyone that is having their input, why bother making the thread if you're just going to be an ass?

I am sorry for your family but why can't people make threads on how their pet or something died but you can make a thread about how your house got burned down.... but nobody got injured.

time to go live with daddy

you say your parents are divorced and someone started the fire at your mother's place? maybe it was your dad

Send Mormons (but really...that sucks)

Your parents should have gotten House Insurance.

Can I ask what motivation this 'person of interest' would have to burn a house down?

[QUOTE=bluesky;32157691]Can I ask what motivation this 'person of interest' would have to burn a house down?[/QUOTE] The fact that my mother is divorcing him. And no, it's not my actual father.

My mom and sister are homeless because of this, and some people are questioning the legitimacy of whether or not this happened. Whoring ratings? Yes I'm worried about getting ratings on an online forum from people I've never met. I don't wish this pain and hurt upon anyone. But god damn I hope you get cancer.

I never said people can't have threads about animals dying...?

This is Terrible, but it's good to know your community is helping them out. Hope things turn out for the best! :buddy:

[QUOTE=Natahster;32157207]I am sorry for your family but why can't people make threads on how their pet or something died but you can make a thread about how your house got burned down.... but nobody got injured.[/QUOTE] Look, I can understand that some people love their pets unconditionally, but OP's family almost died horribly. There's just no comparison of "Cat dies of old age surrounded by loved ones" to "Family burns to death in house, arson investigation pending". Don't you think it's notable enough that OP's mother and sister almost died? Comparing the death of a family member to the death of a pet is just an asinine thing to do.

Sorry to hear that.

want a donation?

And they didn't even have time to grab marshmellows

[QUOTE=MeMassiveFag;32174311]want a donation?[/QUOTE] Well they updated the website, a friend of my moms started a bank account to take donations. Unfortunately they don't have it linked to PayPal or anything. I tried making a PayPal but I can't really considering I don't have a bank account of my own. Here's the part of the article that explains the donations [quote]A fund has been set up to help the family. You can donate by going to the community Choice Bank at 180 S. Milford Road. Checks should be made out to the Smith/Grygorcewicz family.[/quote] [editline]8th September 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=OutOfPop;32174405]And they didn't even have time to grab marshmellows[/QUOTE] Although I do enjoy my marshmallows, Doesn't seem to be the appropriate time. Plus the smoke from the fire was probably a mix of plastic and such, not too good to have on your marshmallow.

I won't lie, I just couldn't resist listening to Brodyquest with the image of your dog dragging your mum out of her burning house as soon as I read its name. In all seriousness, I hope that enough people will use the fund set up to donate something. Hope it all turns out well soon.
