Whether or not you make the post appeal to a reader on a personal level with regard to implying something about them or their behaviour, regardless of whether or not that is the original intention.

I would expect a post like this to either draw "comfort" comments, or be ignored as irrelevant as it's a pretty old and much-discussed topic already in terms of general LJ use.

(Or, I may just have too many whiney people on my F-list.)
