I was going to vote for the person with a black cloud over them, but that would be all about me, so I would have had to vote for that one...and I'd get boiled over if I voted for the political one, so I played it safe and voted for the sucky weather

I was going to go for the black cloud one, but I ended up choosing the all about me one. They're so similar..... but I had to go with the latter. People who never have anything good to say, always have ailments or symptoms that are worse than everyone else's, the woe is me type!

Those people tend to get me down, believe me I know.....I have a sister just like that.

I spread my vote among "black cloud", "all about me", and "politics"..They're almost interchangeable these days..

I voted for 2, 4 and 5. The constant black cloud is toxic, the "all about me" is almost as bad, and the weather just plain stinks around here, lol.

I couldn't vote for the "its all about me", well cos it is isn't it, My dear Aunty gave me a badge that says "its always about me", as we always seem to be talking to each other about each other.
No I voted for politics, you just can't get away from it, in a Chapel in a church here in Australia they have removed the crosses and other "religious" icons, so as not to offend anyone, ummmm isn't a chapel a place to go to talk to God, isn't that a place for crosses etc. I think thats political correctness gone mad

"Black cloud" and "it's all about me" are the two I voted for. It's all I can do not to bring it to someone's attention that they aren't the end all be all of the universe.

Same here, Kell. I just don't have the energy to absorb negativity all the time. I make a concerted effort to be a good listener, but when I have to listen to the same thing 200 times, it just takes too much out of me.

I need to laugh, lest I drop dead on the spot.

I could vote for all of them but I think "stupidity" is the most annoying.
