[quote=Anonymous]You should probably assume it isn't about you and ignore it.  Or hide her if her posts frequently bother you.

A few weeks ago, I watched "Weight of the Nation" and posted what I thought was a pretty innocuous comment about the show and how it's a scary look at the things we Americans do (diet/sedentary lifestyle) that are killing us.  A (normal-weight) friend preceded to ream me out over FB, posting a multi-post rant in the comments because she - a lifetime smoker - had developed lung cancer and thought I was being judgmental of people who make bad decisions.  (Disclaimer: yes, I do judge the man with the BMI of *72* who died of a heart attack.  72?  That is 3x the norm.)  I ended up deleting the entire thread because I was uncomfortable with the fact that 600+ people (most of whom did now know this girl) could read it and be privy to some seriously TMI stuff she wrote.

I messaged her offline about it and she has yet to hide or defriend me, so I chalked it up to her being drunk that night and having some unresolved issues with her diagnosis and reading something into my comments that was not intended.

My point: chances are, her post has nothing to do with you.  And if it does, do you care?[/quote]
