Hang on, guys, maybe there's some truth to what Russell is saying. Yeah, "it's always sad when a life is ended so long before it should", and we definitely shouldn't joke about someone "dying, whether it be from suicide, cance-"... hold on...

Oh. Wait. I guess it's okay to joke about people dying now. Carry on. |

I'm just waiting for him to respond with a post along the lines of, "Well Jay's well-older than 17, so it's okay," or, "It's fine if scum die."
Also, sorry mods. This has completely derailed. Lock it. |

My point is that there will always be people cracking jokes. Do we mean ill on others? No. In fact, there are those of us who made jokes in this thread that genuinely do feel a level of remorse for her and her family. It's within our right to make jokes, and there's nothing wrong with it. You need to either get over it and learn to make light of a situation like this without ill intent, or just plain old get bent. |

That's kind of a hasty critique of what I and perhaps geroin are getting at; one that faults my post for what it isn't, opposing what it is. To invoke your claim, one would be asked to impose a thread with the obituary of every teenager (and why stop there?) to have committed suicide. I certainly wasn't aiming to trivialize her passing.
The fact is that I heard some of the selections on her Amazon page. I was dismayed that someone so young, who had clear talent, had made such a bad decision and that, until now, I hadn't heard of her. In that, I'm only trivializing the unfortunate deaths of untalented teenagers when you raise the fact that I have yet to express my condolences for their having passed away with other untimely methodologies. |
I'm sure that wasn't your intention, but saying "oh she was so talented, it's too bad she died." I don't think I was claiming that we should be mourning every teen suicide, but if you do chose to do so, do so with respect. I guess it's more in the way her talent was being brought into discussion, and not just the fact that it was.
Celebrate her talent, praise it as much as you want, but don't say it's a shame that she died because she was talented. That's what trivializes it, not just the fact that her talent was mentioned. |
