It's when someone complains about how hard they have it, not to get OR take the help offered, but just simply because they want to get attention and create drama to show how hard they think they think they have it.
Especially useful on social media
Example: Iβm stuck on the freeway car broken down, no one for miles, kids screaming in the back seat, my eldest has a disability and doesnβt understand and I have no mobile service but it dropped in enough to post this π°
Response: Help offered by multiple people all turned down with the βill solider onβ, itβll be okβ or βthis is my life Iβm used to itβ. And yet they can keep responding to said posts/texts. Oh, your suffering from the kardashian effect!
