Tsunami Shaming


when someone is tsunami shamed, their problems, big or small, are shot down immediately on the premise of ”at least you haven’t suffered a tsunami”. it’s hard to tell whether this is supposed to be comforting or or whether the person is playing the douche on purpose.
two examples of tsunami shaming:

john: hey bob, what’s up?

bob: it’s been a rough week. my dog got hit by a car, one of my parents lost their job, and i got a cold just in time for the finals.

john: yeah, well, at least your house isn’t three miles from where it used to be. toughen up.

linda: i heard you were moving to an apartment, jane.

jane: yeah, my family’s house is getting foreclosed on, we have to be out within a month. the only place i can afford is really small and seedy. i feel more sorry for my kids than myself.

linda: stop b-tching, a least they’ll have a roof over their heads, unlike the tsunami victims!!!
