    Hey, need a quick reply to this if possible,

    If someone called you a 'crown of thorns' as an insult, what do they mean exactly?

    One of my friends saw a girl I know coming his way and said to one of his friend 'Oh here comes the crown of thorns herself..' :confused:

    Thanks

    Nasty? Crappy? Something unpleasant anyways, I'm sure Jesus didn't find his crown of thorns too fetching!

    I would have thought it meant they are a burden to be borne.

    I'd ask my friend WTF he was on about. Never heard that one before.

    I would of presumed if someone said that, then they think you fancy yourself as a bit of a martyr, ie. always feeling sorry for yourself, thinking everything is blamed on you etc.
