Bite Me, Hypocrite

I realized while rereading the latest Naruto chapter (and wow, does it really love like Pain killed Hinata, I didn't catch how much so on the first reread) that I really want Pain and Shinji to meet.

Yeah, you just TRY and one-up Shinji 'my angst destroyed the word', Nagato.

'My angst is bigger than yours' is always fail. It doesn't matter if your world was destroyed, your parents raped you, your dearest friend ate your baby and then shot themselves in the head...if you go around acting like your angst is greater than everyone else's and that entitles you to act like the world's biggest dickhead, you have FAILED. I can handle 'you can't understand my angst', because it's partially true: everyone's angst is individual and affects them uniquely. But saying: "My angst is BETTER than yours?" Fuck off, wanker.

Especially when you say stuff like that in a series full of people whose friends and loved ones have died, have been captured, have turned to the dark side and their friends are unable to save them from their self-destruction...

Pain, you are a whiny little bitch.

So true.

And he tried to pull this on fucking Tsunade.

It's one things for fans to talk about who had it worse but for characters, their awesome levels increase the less they talk about the massive angst they have. Look at Kakashi - he RARELY talks about his ohsotragic past, and is terribly awesome. Same with Tsunade - she doesn't TALK about it, but it clearly effects her.
