Aww I feel sorry for you now ...

I'm on your side :wink: hehe but maybe you should have been a tad more sensitive ... no? Ok?

PEOPLE, he wasn't joking about Steve Irwin's death in an offensive way! I didn't really find it offensive (although obviously I wouldn't, because ... well yeah) and, well, his death, although it's sad - people die everyday, people who have children, a family, whatever. Yes, it's sad, but it IS part of life and what Steve Irwin was doing was kind of bound to get him hurt someday, at the least.

Listen to me then..

Emz, he was..

I said 'I doubt Jakey would go to a funeral and make jokes'
and he said 'You dont know me very well then'

Thats just plain nastiness..

Oops sorry Ash. The case was meant to be closed, right? :tongue:

Finally, someone other than Ash with a good head on their shoulders

GOOD head..?
If you think making jokes about a death is good, I'd hate to see what you think bad is..

Well *blushes* :tongue:

I'd like to think we all have good heads on our shoulders lol, but the point is, I can't see why people are jumping all over each other just because they're expressing their opinions.

And Emz - yes!!

Are you saying I have a bad head? :nono:

So she has a good head becuase she agree's with you?

Because Ash, I dont think its very nice..
Is that such a problem?

Im sticking to my opinion, unlike some..

Look, I dunno how your mind works but there was no "death" jokes... I would never joke about the subject. You and Mark tend to get carried away without checking the facts first, and thats what normally gets you into so many arguments

I never said making jokes about death was good, I just never found the 'jokes' offensive. Steve Irwin didn't really mean anything to me.

EXACTLY what Ash just said..
Hm.. intresting

Im with Chrizzle, so what you dont like him? At least show some respect to the man. Hes dead. You havent shown anything sign of respect or remorse for him. You've just been rude and what you've said was uncalled for. Your very selfish.

isee what you mean now

I said I felt sorry for his family! Can you not read?

And I'm sticking to mine, that I think you should give it a rest now.

You've said plenty of times that you don't like the fact that Jake made jokes. Why do you have to keep saying it over and over again and being more argumentative, and making it worse?

:nono::nono:End it now Guys

Just because you dont like someone, its just not very nice..
Can you not see that?

Steve irwin was not a bad man, he hadn't done anything wrong.
So he made a stereotypical view of Australian people..
Your doing that now.
Your making them come across as not very nice..

EXACTLY what Ash just said..
Hm.. intresting [/quote]

We obviously think alike..

You know what they say, bad minds think alike..

Did you not say that you do not base your opinions on one person?

Yeah, he did actually ... I think that's a sign of respect - I don't particularly agree that remorse has to be shown though - we never knew the man personally! He wasn't a friend of mine, or in any way part of my life! It's sad for his family, but I just don't think it's sad TO ME. I don't think that's selfish, I think it's pretty practical. I know he's dead, but thousands of people die every day ... we don't acknowledge 99% of their deaths, and if Steve Irwin wasn't on a TV program about crocodiles, we wouldn't acknowledge his either.

You know what they say, bad minds think alike.. [/quote]

Wasn't it 'great minds think alike'?

Chrizzle, I've always tried to respect what you're saying, but I don't see why you have to say the same thing a gazillion time over 4 pages - it comes across as a tad argumentative. :rolleyes:
