Hey. To me it appears that this thread is already more tasteless than the other one.

And I say that as a person who realizes full well the irrelevance of the 'rich and famous' to her own life and wellbeing. I agree that we are being beat about the head with this phenom, but I also realize that it's for but a brief span. Change the channel, lay down that magazine, redirect the conversation.

I don't have or heed the taboo of speaking ill of the dead but I do think that for me who knows little factual of the matter I can cut him lots of slack.
