Most of the eyes in the non-sporting world were focused on ABC on Friday night, as former Olympic decathlete and reality TV star Bruce Jenner confirmed that he is transitioning into a woman. Jenner received scads of deserved support and praise for his bravery and honesty over social media, with one notable fringe ex-member of the ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians” clan deciding to weigh in somewhat vaguely in 140 characters or less.

You’ll recall that Humphries enjoyed a 72-day sham of a marriage to we still don’t know what she does Kim Kardashian in 2011, prior to asking for an annulment. Kim Kardashian is the step-daughter of Bruce Jenner.

Predictably, the backlash to the Washington Wizards forward was severe. We rather enjoyed this response from comedian Nikki Glaser:

Just as predictably, Humphries’ lack of tact, self-awareness, and compassion forced Kris into a bit of a whitewash on Saturday morning:

I have and always will support Bruce hence #Gottadoyou. Now recognize I was too vague and sincerely apologize for the way this came across. — Kris Humphries (@KrisHumphries) April 25, 2015

OK, pal.

That’s better than claiming you were hacked, I suppose. It’s pretty hard to read “Man, I’m glad I got out when I did” incorrectly, though. We’re not going to be in the business of encouraging you to think that Kris Humphries is a liar, but we should remind you that Humphries’ decade-long professional career has been marked with this sort of priggishness.

And, again, we’re having a tough time taking “glad I got out when I did” as anything less than an unfunny shot at someone that is working through something more trying and complicated and fearsome than Kris Humphries will ever go through.

Bruce Jenner should be proud of his gender identity. We’ll let the readers decide just what sort of attitude identity they want to associate Kris Humphiries with.
