^ Me, too, Psycho Dad.

Except from our Chaplain at work. If I even express a frustration or irritation, she'll give me an "I'll pray for you." I usually tell her something along the lines of whatever floats her boat, but it's getting really annoying. One of these days I just know I'm going to lose it and ask her flat out, "You're going to pray for what? think I can't handle it myself? Thanks for that faith in me." She knows that I don't believe in her god. It drives me nuts.
If people are saying it in passing and truly mean it, fine. Whatever floats their boats, too. But don't be condescending and pray for me to "have the strength" to change whatever I'm bitching about. That's where I get offended. I can pretty much handle it, thanks.
