More than likely it was a teenager who doctored a photo on instagram or something like that, and thought a vet site would think a dog eating at a table with a hoodie on would make them laugh. My two oldest teenage nephews always put my youngest nephew's head on other bodies of people doing dumb things in these 3 second or so clips, and send it to me so I'd think my youngest nephew really did these dumb things.
Yeah my thoughts exactly. Don't read too much into this KP. I do not think this was meant to offend anyone at all.
It was a public post on the clinic's home page with her pic on it introducing her as the new doctor. So I guess anybody that follows the clinic or friends with somebody who follows the clinic?
She saw the gif, and wondered who he was, and clicked on his FB profile/pages to see if she remembered him/would find a little context to the gif.
In that case, I don't see how it can be that insulting. If he really wanted to be offensive, he could have found something much worse I'm sure given the state of the internet.
This. That is the worst thing you can say to someone with her history and current state.
The thing is, in the state she's in and her history, such things will be taken negatively. She's already down on herself, actually needs help imo, so no way to reason with her. I wasn't sure what to think. Given the choice of thinking, someone not mentally doing well will see it was making fun of her weight whereas someone with good self regard would just laugh it off. It's a good test actually used in psych. How does the patient respond to such images that can go either way.
I get that. I just don't see how the intent was to be insulting. The response isn't really related to that.
