Hypothetically….
Put yourself in this situation:
You go out for the night (taking your car with you).
You have a few drinks and decide to take some prescribed medication because you "like the head swim" it gives you. You drink some more.
You reach a point, courtesy of the drink and drugs, where subsequently large parts of the evening are lost from your memory for good.
Then you get in your car and drive off, giving someone a lift and shortly after you drop them off are pulled over by the police and subsequently charged with DUI and Reckless Endangerment (this is in the hypothetical USA).
When faced with the prospect of large fines and potentially jail time, what do you do?
Do you, for instance, send round an email to a bunch of people telling them you've got in a financial jam and asking if they can help by bidding on your Ebay auctions or possibly even donating cash without telling them what you did to get in the jam?
When one of them offers you his very well-visited web forum as a platform and kindly introduces your plight to his audience, do you then go online and again stress the urgency of your need without telling people what you did?
And when people realise that you've posted details of the event, including the phrase "I popped a couple tranqs while at the bar b/c I liked the head swim that it would give me." on your blog, meaning you have to come clean about it to the people on that forum, are you remotely surprised that some people come down on you like a ton of bricks? Do you post messages saying how people have made you feel just terrible for drawing attention to the fact that you deserve everything you get, and how much you don't need other people to tell you you made a mistake, and now you just want them to send you money?
It will come as no surprise for you to learn that I've watched this entirely non-hypothetical scenario unfold over the last 24 hours. After the fact, the woman in question has taken down the offending blog posting, so I won't link, but honestly, I can't remember the last time I was so angry about something someone did.
