This is a question And that's the thanks I got

On getting screwed over by people for whom you were doing a favour:

I spent several weeks helping my best friend - a complete layabout - with his A-Level computer science project so he wouldn't fail his course. In the end, he did so little work I actually ended up doing the whole thing for him in a half-term week I should really have spent revising for my own exams.

I got back to college to find that while I was hunched over a red-hot BBC Micro, he had spent the week screwing my girlfriend.

Then he didn't bother sitting the exam because "I'm going to fail anyway".

And that's the thanks I got. How have you been screwed over whilst doing someone a favour?

I mean, you know
You stand shoulder to shoulder by someone when they are attacked, you support them going to war in defiance of international law, and even commit a few troops of your own to make it look like an international effort, you risk unpopularity at home by obeying said friend's orders without question, you even look the other way when said friend's ally attacks a neighbouring country, while your own personal ratings plummet at home...

And all I asked in return were a few concessions on climate change.

Bastard.
