5. It's the type of comment that comes from people that have no empathy.

People that spew that nonsense are commonly pretty self centered, annoyed that you're inconveniencing them somehow, or showing emotions that they themselves would rather not acknowledge TO themselves.

Gotta pretend to be a tough guy and everything.

I have friends that act like that sometimes, that come from big extended, supportive families that they can rely on...and I'm the opposite. So of course I'm going to get moody when the blood sugar's low and such, and the resulting depression stirs up old memories and difficulties they never had to face by themselves, or at all.
