ESH upgrades rings out of spite, sparks unnecessary family feud

ESH. Him, obviously. He’s a toad. And you because you’re just petty. Maybe me, too, because even though my parents could afford to help, I’ve been on my own through schooling and everything and your story grosses me out. Dumping money on a ring just to spite another person seems gross to me. Really, it’s not that you did it, you can do whatever you want. It’s that your *bragging* about throwing money around to spite another person in the middle of a global pandemic where a lot of families are being made homeless. Yeah, they’re not your responsibility, but f**k, can you just not brag about it?
