People like to be contrarian for the sake of it. This is especially easy and entertaining on the net, where it carries no cost for them. Just keep that in mind and the words here will never ruffle your feathers too much.

I've had three relatives pass from cancer, and each and every one of them made jokes similar to these about themselves. It was encouraged that we do the same. I can speak from experience when I say that just because people joke about it doesn't mean they don't give a shit. Go play somewhere else.

Originally posted by shaw I just don't get affected by the personal events and/or deaths of celebrities I don't know, and find doing so a bit ridiculous, if not, at the very least, mock-worthy. It's one thing to laude the man's accomplishments upon his passing. It's another to get personally attached for no ascertainable reason.

Fair enough comment to be fair mate

Its nothing to do with him though its just general making jokes about someone who has suffered greatly and gone through shit I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy, I dunno I just find about as unfunny as you can get and lacking class.

sorry to hear about your relatives pal

I know what your saying, its some peoples way of dealing with shit, but I find it weird how this shit is fine and encouraged almost, yet make a racist comment/joke and your scum etc.

How is making a joke about someones skin colour worse than about someone who is dead, has grieving relatives etc ??? wtf makes no sense to me.

I'll play wherever I want though thanks all the same.

You bring up a gripe about racist comment quite a lot... Hm... let me guess...




You sound like a fella that would like to buy a vowel... :->

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma � which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

- Steve Jobs

Job's wasn't christian, Buddist, I think.

besides, his coffin will be most likely be made out of post-consumer, recycled aluminum unibody.

Yeah I hate ******s and pakis

now lets see how long that lasts if I posted that as a thread title ?


I bring it up because its one of the main things i see every single day, people hounded for so much as a whiff of intolerance and made out to be scum, yet nobody barley bats an eyelid to this sort of stuff.

Because nobody is actually hating on anything in this thread.

Quite sad. I like the fact that he was so private with his personal life right up until the end. He seems like a truly fascinating person and I kind of want to give his biography a read now.

But then 9 times out of 10 neither are the people making a joke or saying a silly/stupid comment
I've witnessed people treat like a peado for making such off the cuff ill advised remarks/comments/jokes.

Anyway just saying I think its a bit fucked up how it all works, each to their own, I'm probably just been moody cause I cant sleep again and feel like ringing some ****s neck.

Laters guys

Surely you are not talking about TA. The shit ppl get away with here, I'm surprised NAACP, ADL and fuck it, PETA are not yet jumping up and down Swamper's head.

"Jobs dropped out of Oregon's Reed College after one semester, although he returned to audit a class in calligraphy, which he says influenced Apple's graceful, minimalist aesthetic. He quit one of his first jobs, designing video games for Atari, to backpack across India and take psychedelic drugs. Those experiences, Jobs said later, shaped his creative vision."

"After dropping out of Reed College, a stronghold of liberal thought in Portland, Ore., in 1972, Mr. Jobs led a countercultural lifestyle himself. He told a reporter that taking LSD was one of the two or three most important things he had done in his life. He said there were things about him that people who had not tried psychedelics � even people who knew him well, including his wife � could never understand. "

Apple stock is going TO GROW, GROW, and GROW.

His death is an indirect form of advertisement.

It's over for this century...., and for this country.

All of these people posting on facebook about Mr. Jobs makes me weep...for the state of my fucktard sheeple 'friends'. It's almost as bad as reading 'xxx is checking in at yyy with zzz and qqq'

lol Sheeple is an Alex Jones word

Originally posted by ReclusNdangrmnt But hey, now when I see Apple whores lined up to give them more money, I can yell "WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW?!" at them.

You think these dumbasses will even know who he was? Theyre sheep, nothing more.

And I say this as a mac user owning 5+ macs.
