Now it's certain, the friends and colleagues you've worked with for years and years and suddenly so inquisitive! Where are you going? What are your plans? Will you take a holiday? What does your wife think? Did you know it was happening? Were there signs? In this situation it's perfectly acceptable to punch people you've known and loved for years. They know it and you know it. They deserve it. As there is such a severe lack of a coliseum in modern life, and it's surprisingly difficult to throw Christians to the lions these days without upsetting someones feelings, your friends and colleagues will delve into your tragedy to fulfill their sick voyeuristic need to watch car-crash life happen. It sucks.
