Dear Sidney

Mar 16, 2023 | Dear Sidney, Features

Dear Sidney,

So, my sister is constantly on Facebook and all she does is lie. I mean, seriously, she talks about how kind she is, how hard she works, and how happy she is – and they are ALL lies.

Should I confront her?

Dear Crazy in Crest Park,

Isn’t the whole purpose of posting to Facebook to boost one’s ego? Please do yourself a favor and do not confront her, correct her or naysay your sister on any public forum or in a private conversation with her. You certainly won’t get any Brownie points for pointing out the truth.

Keep your mouth shut. Remember, you can’t fix stupid.
