Today, during school, I passed out in the lunch line and hit my head on the metal rail as I fell. Rather than helping or expressing concern at all, my friends simply left my unconscious body on the floor. Why? They had to get to the lasagna before the cafeteria ran out of it. FML

For those of you that were wondering- yes, I'm alright. :) I'm anemic, and sometimes it catches up to me and I'll start to get lightheaded/faint. I hadn't been feeling well all day, and thought food might help... Guess I was a bit late. In regards to my 'friends', I suppose I used the term loosely. They aren't my closest friends by far, but I've known them for years. We were close enough that I ASSUMED the sight of me falling and bashing my head open would be more important than their need for dry, school-food lasagna. And, in response to one commenter, I didn't expect them to immediately transform into doctors. But it still doesn't feel too great when the people you call 'friends' step over you, sprawled on the ground and bleeding, in favor of food. And no, I don't speak to them anymore. We had a fall out shortly after this incident. Ah well, highschool is a joke anyways.

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Food before friends is their logic I guess

Get new friends, OP.

Is it just me, or has humanity hit rock bottom if a food type is more important than a person who requires first aid?

I agree with your friends. On this one.

You were breathing, so lasagna had top priority. If it was fish sticks, you would have been first.

I'm glad you are okay OP; I can relate one time back in high school I started choking while eating lunch with friends, they all just stared at me not knowing what to do, just staring at me slowly losing oxygen, needless to say I had to help myself out. It is in human nature to ignore others, deflection of responsibility. Fortunately, in your case you are alive and well, many people don't react, don't know what to do or just ignore a situation. There have been many cases and studies where people are dying calling out for help and people ignore them, and they die.
