I think the Norway incident is more important then this.

Infinitely more important.

The way I look at it is this -

She had ridiculous amounts of money.

She CHOSE to keep taking drugs. She could have had a brilliant lifestyle and she threw it away, knowing full well what she was doing.

Obviously any death is a shame but she isn't getting any sympathy from me, sorry.

On top of that, I really thought her music was awful and I don't see how anyone can like it, but that's music!

Have you actually read some of the comments in the thread? Most of them have now been removed by mods for a reason.

Calling her a ****, and glad she's dead is kinda inappropriate dont you think?

Yes i do, certainly. But you seem to be thinking that people find her death amusing, i was pointing out that this is (largely) not the case, and that laughing at a joke made ABOUT her death is imo, not that bad. and is completely different to laughing at her death

You have to laugh at death, otherwise we'd all be in a pretty morbid existence.

Considering you turn in to He Man at any mention of animals being treated poorly you don't half turn in to a **** when it's a human with problems. Disgusting poster.

I'm an animal lover not a toilet floater lover.

didnt think she was a great talent ! thats just what everyone says after someone has died whether they were good or not, its the dignified thing to say!
ive never been to a funeral where the vicar said Brenda was a boring old woman who never went out and didnt have any friends and was nasty to anyone who came to the door.......

Not into this type of music to be honest but it shows that illicit drugs in the long term are no good to anyone.

Stories like this make me appreciate the whole straight edge lifestyle a whole lot more !

Its a sad waste of her talent. But this is what happens when your a drug addict.

Sime · 23 Jul 2011 at 18:04

Was really just a matter of time...

The last bit of news I heard was she was an absolute mess on stage somewhere and got BOOed off. That kind of constant abuse isnt ever going to end well.

Wasted.

Whilst I never wished her dead, I actually don't give the slightest damn that she is. *shrug*

Because he's expected to tell everyone the usual generic rubbish "loved by people" "kind and caring"

The news in Norway is utterly sad. But, that news has been covered since it happened yesterday.

Like her, or not, it is news worthy, and should be covered.

I disagree .

So you think it's acceptable to wish death upon someone? I'm disappointed, I really thought better of you.

common practice on here

no respect for life at all

I have plenty of respect for life, especially for those that respect life themselves and do not throw it away on a whim.

You want to show respect to those who deserve your respect then spare a though for the 5 NATO soldiers who died in Afghanistan this week instead. Being famous doesn't infer greatness or respect, what you do in life does and frankly Amy Winehouse, while talented in her own way, threw that life away and did very little good with the opportunity that she had.

So while I think it is a shame she is dead, I do not mourn her death or respect her any more simply because she died at a relatively young age.

Pestilence · 23 Jul 2011 at 18:06

Was only a matter of time TBH.

RIP and all, but she won't be missed by yours truly.

I'm sorry, I didn't realise you were the president of her fan club.

Seriously get a grip. I doubt anyone here has had any personal interaction with her, people die all the time if you can't make a joke about something that all of us face at one time or another then I feel sorry for you. But not as sorry as I feel for her family and the amount of stress they have and will have to put with due to this. Maybe if Amy Winehouse concentrated more on her fans and her career then we wouldn't even be making these posts.

im not a fan, infact i dont like her music at all, it just annoys me when people mock other peoples death, what about her family, friends etc etc
yeah she was a drugged up alcoholic performer who didnt want help, so what ?
she chose that path and now she is dead
mocking peoples deaths is low

How about some news that you have not heard of and you probably won't hear about.
Car bomb went off today in Iraq north east of Baghdad killing two.

Most, if not all people, have wished death upon others at some point.

My dad does funeral visits for some families who have nothing but bad things to say about the deceased. He says sometimes you really have to dig to find anything good to say. Mind you, in cases like that he says you get the feeling that most of the people at the funeral don't want to hear anything good about them anyway, so it doesn't matter that much anyway.
