DIY victim kit

 When did being a victim become so popular? I see it everywhere, people WANT to identify as victims.  From "I'm triggered by seeing other people eating junk food because of my Eating Disorder, so you can't have snacks in my workplace!" to "my mom was a shitty parent because she drank, so you can't have booze at your wedding you invited me to or I'll pitch a fit!" to my all time favorite, "you have to do whatever I say and cater to my every whim because I'm AUTISTIC!".  These people, man. The whining, the bitching, the 'woe is me, I'm the center of the universe,' is downright sickening. Maybe it bothers me so much because I have spent my whole life trying to shuck off the "victim" label people try to lay on my shoulders. Maybe it disgusts me because I have seen real victims with real problems.  My brother has austism. No, not the "tee hee I'm QUIRKY! Look at me being slightly awkward in social situations!...
