The one question that annoys me about being laid off

As some of you know, I (like Jiggles) am getting laid off within the next 30 to 60 days from the job I've had at Discovery Channel for 3 years. And many customers have been sympathetic, many giving me business cards and phone numbers to call for some very nice paying jobs.

But one question bugs the shit out of me.

"So what are you going to do?"

Why do you ask this question? What does everyone do when they lose their job? They get a new fucking job. I think from now on, when someone asks me that question, I'm going to respond "I think I'll blow my fucking head off tonight when I get home, maybe molest a few puppies first."

Maybe I'm just testy due to the annoyance and timing of it all.

it's always the puppies with you...
"Remember, stop pushing when the Q-Tip hits resistance!"
"What did you say? Keep pushing?"
"Yeah, you go nuts with that."

The question is still pertinent. I mean, some folks that get laid off go get a new job. Others might go back to school. Some might rely on a spouse for finance for a while.

Unless I'm selling it to you, that totally defeats the purpose of relying on you. How come I can never depend on you when it matters the most? You're such a jerk. I can't believe I gave up my friends for you.
