Cowboy up.

Get your boot straps out the dirt.

Cryers don't get healthcare.

(Okay I'm running out of Americanisms)

It's telling someone to stop being emotional.

I'd say it's telling someone to focus on a task at hand

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Yeah but if that task isn't something that someone's life depends on turn it's a pretty dick move.

Like "I need to lock in and finish this essay" sort of thing

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

You can ask for an extension.

[-] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Is there context here that I'm missing? I'm confused

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Yeah an essay isn't an emergency. Telling someone they have to stop crying is physically and mentally harmful. So doing so without some on going reason they absolutely have to stop is a dick move.
