It's entire existence seems to be a sorry pile of excuses for doing absolutely nothing and expecting everything.  It literally does these 'I'm poor ama's'  frequently, it's absolutely horrifying that people actually feel sorry for this beast. Here's the quote that sums up their entire view on the value of life, and likely how most hams truly feel:  Most people seem to think that it's that I'm fat and/or lazy. I think that it's that I only care about people that directly matter to me. 10,000 children in the middle of nowhere died? Meh. My bestie twisted her ankle? Huge deal to me
