Your experiences ought to have made you a little more empathetic - many people have life altering happenings - often not as frightening as yours - and they deal with them differently; sometimes well and othertimes in a destructive manner. You didn't ought to come across so superior because you do not do drugs or drink heavily.

^ that.
& also: So, diddy, are you saying that had you not had all this terrible stuff befall you, you might be less of a supercilious dingbat? Then, despite not knowing you from Adam, I sincerely wish that nothing of this nature had happened to you, & we might start your personality again from scratch.

$30 from where to where? Maybe the driver took a ridiculously long route thinking, "he's a celeb, he can afford it". Kelly's had more than his fair share of incidents but let's wait until all the facts are out.

Last week you were bitching about DelaHoya entering treatment so close to the fight. Asking why he couldn't wait a week.
Diddy may sound callous, but he's right. The only reason people are all sad and distraught is because he's a celebrity. This shit goes on right around the corner from all of you involving destitute people and ya'll sleep like babies. I certainly don't wish him any harm, but sympathies are better served elsewhere like all the innocent people that just got gunned down in Washington. That's tragic, this is just a drunk dude.

I never called him a loser. I just find it beyond hypocritical that you sympathize with one addict and slam on another.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that laughed. One time back in Florida I was so trashed when I went in to get the cabby cash I passed out cold and my room mate had to pay him.
This really isn't a big deal. I mean his drinking is out in the public, it's hard to tell how bad the issue is. It's one thing when he's Boxing, it's another when he isn't.

We all got problems...and some of them should be laughed at.
What makes it really funny, to me, is that this poor cabbie most likely provoked nothing. Then Kelly gets out and spits this crap out to the driver. I can just imagine the driver's reaction. I'd love to know what was going through his head as he watched Kelly stumble away.
Especially since the whole ride he was probably expecting a fat tip from a drunk celebrity.

The other guy called him a idiot and loser. Kelly and Oscar are both very far from being losers or idiots.

Why are you talking to me about what someone else said?
