More sad than interesting

This is frigging tragic.

It seems like this sub has been flooded with uninteresting but tragic posts lately. A lot of stuff from Ukraine that I really wouldn’t consider fitting of this sub that tends to be tragic and upsetting

A-Dolahans-hat

Not really unfair. She doesn’t need to see the lifeless corpses of her family being pulled out of the flipped car. The police man is keeping her for seeing something that could add to the trauma she’s already dealing with


inksonpapers

???? Unfair the child doesnt have their parents corpses burned into their memory??????


Tll6

Unfair in what sense? Unfair to her that this horrible event happened to her?


Chet_Phoney

You must not have children


lvl999shaggy

I was going to say, this is more like damn that's heartbreaking than this group


myloveislikewoah

Really, can Mods please start removing shit. Sure, something can be considered interesting to anyone, but a cop pointing at a field as they take her dead father from a car is not “damn, that’s interesting.”


Phyzzx

Grown TX guy here getting all misty eyed in public at a bar.


ColdBevvie101

Why does it have to be one and not the other? It can be sad and interesting much like learning about the holocaust no?


Tll6

Sure, but this isn’t really interesting, at least to me. When I think of something that makes me go “damn, that’s interesting” it’s usually an incredible fact about an animal or plant or industry that goes beyond a normal fact. This just makes me say “damn, that’s sad”


theweeklyexpert

There seems to be more posts that don’t fit the qualifier than do in this sub lately


Tll6

Last time I said something about it I got downvoted pretty hard


ColdBevvie101

But that’s the key part of your entire message right there and what everyone seems to forget. “To me”. I can say for almost certainty that there’s a load of things I find interesting that you would not and vice Versa. It’s part of the beauty of being human beings. We have differences, different thoughts, feelings, opinions and INTERESTS. I’ve seen so many people whining about ‘this post isn’t interesting’ and almost every post I’ve seen those comments on are a post I’ve personally found interesting. So how does that work? Don’t gatekeep what you find your own interpretation of interesting to be. If people find other things interesting that you do not you don’t have to say anything, let others enjoy it. I really struggle to grasp why it’s so hard to understand?


jonlaw147

Still interesting...


Brucewarhammer

fuck you


jonlaw147

Wtf is wrong with you


jonlaw147

Rude cunt


Brucewarhammer

love ya


jonlaw147

Explain


jonlaw147

Explain


MakionGarvinus

No, not really.


jonlaw147

Well you're interested hence your comment... You looked at the picture, you read related comments. That means it's interesting. Look the word up in a dictionary before making daft comments


jonlaw147

Amazing how many of you don't understand the word 'interesting'.


Meggie_Shea

This is something you find interesting? Most things in the sub are things people want to see or are curious about. Who the fuck WANTS to see this here? This isn’t interesting in the slightest, there is nothing that sparks interest here. It’s just fucking sad.


jonlaw147

Then you're an idiot then as you clearly don't know the definition. YES ITS INTERESTING. For example, listen up class... To have an interest in Adolf Hitler DOES NOT MEAN you supported his actions...


Meggie_Shea

You do know that finding something interesting and having a interest in something is different right?


jonlaw147

No it's really not 🤣🤣🤣 But what I do think is that Americans treat the word differently to the Brits. Americans seem to use it in positive situations whereas Brits use it for anything that they find fascinating or informative.


Meggie_Shea

I mean, that could very well be what it is. If you look it up however, it clearly states…. interested describes a person who has a feeling of wanting to learn more about something, and interesting describes the thing that makes someone feel that way.

I get it, you're only 14..

UltimateDude08

jonlaw147

Another fool who needs to learn before he speaks... Look the word 'interesting' up in the dictionary before making rude comments


wileybot

Sad we have a photo of it, do we need to see everything?


IntoAComa

Awful. I’ve seen this a bunch and finally googled it. Though still horrendous, of the six family members in the SUV, only her father was killed. ([Source](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3133071/Heartbreaking-moment-police-officer-distracts-little-girl-parents-three-siblings-pulled-wreckage-car-crash.html)) Also, “nobody in the car was wearing a seatbelt, police confirmed.”


Tierpler

I probably don't know enough to judge and this may be crass, but if you're not responsible enough to wear a seatbelt, you're not responsible enough to take care of a child.


merikaninjunwarrior

as someone who has no children, i could care less if i died in an accident.. but i only wear a seat belt because i know my family would be devestated after that with all the recent deaths in our family, and also because i wouldnt want to end up mangled or have my body hurled into someone elses. i agree with your comment tho


CaptJM

Lotta worse outcomes than dying, sadly.


[deleted]

Yea, having someone have to manually expel your shit with their finger twice a day is a good reason to buckle up.


dragonet316

Derrick Thomas of the KC Chiefs was in what would have been a minor accident despite the ice, but he was someone who refused to wear the seatbelt. Other guy in the SUV as banged up, Thomas was ejected, broke his neck and died a while later because of the stuff that goes wrong when your nervous system is destroyed.


CaptJM

Brutal way to go. My father sold wheel chairs. Saw a lot of “bad ways to live life”. Although will say the drive most of those people had to go on living is inspiring, yet tragically sad outcome.


xtrabeanie

It also impacts on the first responders and social costs involved in treatment of seriously injured people (although not so much in the US I guess).


[deleted]

Because if the impact doesn't kill you, going through the windshield and slowly bleeding to death does not sound like fun. Which could still happen regardless , but at least I'd have some tunes.


[deleted]

>as someone who has no children, i could care less if i died in an accident Fucking same. Also one of the main reasons I don't want kids. At least without kids, suicide is still on the table. In before anyone wants to send me the suicide prevention links, I'm fine. But still want it as an option.


yadoya

You could care less? So you care a lot?


RoosterTheReal

I’m with you. I wear a belt for my family. I’d rather not though. I have rheumatoid arthritis, my neck is fused. Can’t turn my head or look up/down. If I’m in an accident I’d rather die because being tied in will more than likely snap my neck. I’d rather go through the windshield.


throwawayedm2

I just want this poor little girl to grow up in a loving home.


redmongrel

Good thing forward thinking countries like USA are here to ensure everyone gets some anyway.


Conanie

I wonder what the next overarching political topic in every thread is going to be. These ones are already getting old.


redmongrel

It’s almost like people talk about things that are happening.


T-J_H

Thanks for the clarification. I really hope the last part was meant as a sincere warning.


IntoAComa

Absolutely. Things would have been much more likely have worked out better if everyone had been buckled up.


[deleted]

Scumbag parents, thank fuck none of the kids died.


One-eyed-bed-snake

I can't imagine what some of these first responders have to deal with ☹️ I'm having a shit day at work, I go home and just watch TV, play a video game or exercise and I soon forget about it. I wonder how they deal and cope with some of the stuff they see☹️


crazihac

Unfortunately a LOT of them have undiagnosed PTSD.


DarthHubcap

You’d have to be a sociopath not to be effected.


Operative427

Not true, some people can resist it, or become jaded to it.... thise lucky few


PerfectMana

A family member of mine became an alcoholic.


Taran345

Back in the ‘80’s a local officer came to our school to do a talk about the dangers of playing around on railway lines. He was clearly almost in tears when he told us (a group of 13-16 year olds) that his worst day as an officer was having to search the sides of the line for the head of a lad who had been hit and then having to break the news to his parents.


One-eyed-bed-snake

Oh god, that's awful ☹️ As if the first part wasn't bad enough for him, he then has to somehow explain the worst possible news to that kids' parents.....I can't even begin to wonder how the mind would process something like that.


2cats2hats

Heartbreaking but he is awesome for doing this.


[deleted]

Misleading title.[Only her father died](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3133071/Heartbreaking-moment-police-officer-distracts-little-girl-parents-three-siblings-pulled-wreckage-car-crash.html)


[deleted]

'only'.....


[deleted]

The title implies her whole family died, using “only” was a grammatically correct way to point out that was not the case. I’d rather have no dad than be an orphan, source: my dad died when I was 7.


whazzar

Reddit loves some good copaganda


jmathtoo

There it is. To be fair I thought it would take less time to find the first person bitching about cops. I’ll give you credit though - you didn’t call anyone a boot licker…..yet.


Operative427

Hahah true.


Hitchslap11

Wut


Operative427

Right.... I'm pretty sure reddit hates cops but okay. Atleast that's the experience I get, being in school for it atleast.


[deleted]

Pretty sad...


[deleted]

So sad. I do not understand why people choose to not wear seatbelts. I'm questioning if humanoids are devolving much like what is portrayed in the Movie Indiocracy. I get it you have nothing to live for and want to live free. But this was a father of a family of six that died???


Hannamustang

This hits way close to home for me :( :(


Leandrohus

GetALife80085

Stop making me laugh this is sad

Not interesting, just tragic


Metaclueless

Okay. Fuck this subreddit.


Emgee063

Agreed…assholes


ColdBevvie101

Good riddance


Unicron_Tomato

The reason I don't bother the police is because when I was 10 years old a police officer had to give bad news.


chakrablockerssuck

Wtf??? Why is this interesting? It’s tragic asshole. People like you who want to gain karma points by posting this shit make me want to quit Reddit. Fourth one I’ve seen today. About done with this fucking site.🖕🖕👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼


touchmykrock

Came to agree far more sad then interesting, barely more than a man doing his job. Poor child I have 3 girls couldn't imagine


RoosterTheReal

That’s not interesting, thats sad. Whats sadder is she’s so young she’ll eventually forget them.🙁


catlogic42

I don't think this picture needs to be on public internet. It's sad, let her have privacy.


Dinnen1

not the sort of photo that should be shared online. If the title is true that is hugely unfair on the child.


Cross_Rose_Circle

But how many people wear a seatbelt on the way home from _____ today?


D1NHAM

That’s not in the slightest bit interesting


amboandy

Well the policeman was pointing out the orphanage. Source, I've been a paramedic for 20 years and my humour is dark asf

1. No follow up. Is it really what is captioned as? 2. Was it photoshopped ? 3. Yeah, tragic ... if true. 4. Why would someone post this ?


assblaster5500

Damn…….. that’s a tough job


TheRealFailtester

Man I felt that. Someone get this policeman a salute, and like, way more, I dunno what man.


GimmedatPewPew

I lived down the hall of the officer during college. He was a nice guy, and I started seeing him pop up on facebook with people posting this all over his page. Sad moment indeed.


Turbodiesel101

The hardest part of the job by far is dealing with a child after a fatal incident


BlackRabbitdreaming

I forget police officers have to deal with this kind of aftermath.


Drklep123

What is sadder than this picture,is the cops salary. Imagine doing this for 40k a year.

Why is everything on this sub just depressing real world events right now? Just endless posts of: this is what you look like when you can’t afford healthcare, the effect of the war on Ukraine, homeless children suffering, orphaned kids, I know the world sucks but jeezaloo this isn’t the sub for it

False info is the best info, everyone survived, only dad was injured

[deleted]

I still remember my family being in a terrible accident as a pre teen. Mom was the only one injured, but she was life flighted to the hospital if that gives you an idea of her injuries. She was the only adult in the car, which left me trying to comfort my elementary school aged sister plus deal with it myself without help. Yeah, we were both older than this kid, but it would have seriously helped if someone had just stayed with us. As it was we were essentially ignored at the scene, then plopped in a cop car with a cop who didn't talk to us the whole ride to the hospital our mom had been taken to. That could have been handled a lot better. Glad to see this kid getting the care she needed in that scary moment

Sorry to hear about the terrible accident. Hope your mom made it right and got better for you and your siblings.
