Dancing on the grave - no over sentimental grief culture in here kthx.
Stick all the sick jokes in here then chaps? Don't want to offend the poor little mites elsewhere you know.
..to make a serious point, why is it that people seem to get off so much in wallowing in grief over media friendly events (i.e. youth, celebrity etc)? Death happens all the time, and all death is a tragedy. Well, unless it's a serial killing neo-nazi druggie rapist I guess. What makes certain people so much more worthwhile of mourning or attention? Sensitivity to deaths that directly affect people close to you (even users on here) of course is warranted, but I find it so cringeworthy the self-pitying nonsense that goes on around stuff like Rhys Jones (Liverpool is exceptionally bad for this stuff) and now McCrae. Especially the way people are going off on one before the chap is even confirmed dead. And what was so offensive in there? A couple of bad insertions of the word "rally" and some harmless comments about the games. What's so awfully AWFUL about that?
p.s. anyone who wants to stoop to "my level" as it were (see : McCrae) feel free to slag off my dead grandmother if you so wish. Eye for an eye and all that.
p.p.s. I am a self-confessed heartless bastard, don't discriminate against me

Seriously, point out to me the oh so offensive comments in that thread about a man not even confirmed dead. People literally rolling over themselves to be outraged.
