I’m sorry if you’ve already discussed this or weren’t really following JIb and for the upcoming rant, but I’ve been out of the loop due to travelling home from JIB and only saw this on instagram today.
I’m sorry, but Rob is such a petty (or insensitive) asshole:
//You did it again #Roma.
Thank you @jusinbellocon and @serendipityhope for hosting another fantastic weekend celebrating love, friendship and (SPN) family.
E stato Bellissimo.

The guy literally tags Jensen twice, every guest EXCEPT Jared, HIMSELF, had a panel with Jared (which I enjoyed at the time because they were very good together on stage), has the nerve to use #spn and #spnfamily, while excluding ONLY the lead of Supernatural. The guy who made it a “family.”
I get that he might not have hung out with Jared at JIB, and Jared wasn’t at his bedside when he had his stroke so he isn’t an automatic BFF for life, but they were literally on-stage together, getting a picture wouldn’t exactly be hard. Hell, he didn’t even have to include a picture of Jared, but to leave him as the only person in attendance who he didn’t tag is some serious BS. It’s also unprofessional.
These extras are such ungrateful trash, I’m disgusted that I finally caved and spent money on an op with this fool (at least it’s not just him in the picture and I can maybe crop him out).
Like, if Jared hadn’t stayed for years longer on a show that he was thinking about leaving, these jerks would have lost their money train years sooner. But all he gets is slighted and to be made the butt of their jokes. He was even nicer to Rob onstage than any of the other guys. He is more successful than all of them, and they should all frankly be kissing his ass for keeping them employed.
I guess now I really see why Rob will never be cast for even a bit part on Walker despite whining about it on his podcast.
Good for you Jared, keep distancing yourself from these petty losers!
Side note: I had a meet and greet with Jared at JIB and he was in a super good mood, probably because Gen was on her way there.
Again, sorry for the rant, but I had to get it out or explode.
I'm sorry you were close to exploding, I hope this helped!
As for Rob's post... I didn't really get that annoyed about it, and hopefully my reasoning will help you feel a bit better. I did see the post when it initially came out, and I also saw that in his Stories, Rob did include a picture of Jared, so he didn't forget about him completely.
The best way I can put it is to liken it to the corporate world class system. It's like if the SPN/Convention crew all worked in the same division together for 10+ years. With the ending of SPN, Jared was promoted into a separate division while everyone else either stayed in that division, or made a lateral transfer. In the corporate world, even if you were good friends with a co-worker, once they move up in the world, a different kind of relationship developers. So, Jared still attends the same company meetings and get-togethers as his coworkers from the old division, but the same kind of friendship doesn't exist because he's now in a different peer group (or class). They're all still the same people, but how they see and interact with each other has changed. And since I know that Jared is finding success outside the SPN family, and more importantly, is happily vacationing with Gen, I'm not bothered by Jared's exclusion from the tags.
