A celebrity stiffs out.., let's make graphics! Options

[S-Majere]

Am I the only one that finds Heath Ledger "memorial graphics" to be in poor taste?

Heath Ledger. The Joke®s on you!

I'm assuming there won't be a Joker in the sequel to the next Batman film?

So Heath Ledger passed away this afternoon and half of Xanga posts about it. So what?

"But he was so young!" you say.

So were the starving children in Africa 1/8 his age. Get over it.

So Heath Ledger passed away this afternoon and half of Xanga posts about it. So what?

"But he was so young!" you say.

So were the starving children in Africa 1/8 his age. Get over it.

why is it always about african kids? does it look like our society really gives a crap about people on the other side of the world, let alone people with no money? yes, world poverty is an important issue, and it is way more tragic than a death of one "celebrity" (or one can even argue all celebrities), but honestly, is it surprising that starving children in africa don't affect our society as much as celebrities do?

we bash on teeny bopper girls who cry over heath ledger's death, but do we ever say anything to ourselves while we're on this forum, basically wasting time, when there are kids in other countries who can't afford a keyboard, let alone a whole computer and internet in which to connect?

it just annoys me when starving kids are always brought up to make us feel guilty about something. in my other thread, i posted that my dog is more important to me than a starving child. to some girls out there, heath ledger is more important than a starving child. just like to some of us here, our car/our tv/our computer/ANYTHING is more important than a starving child. if we really cared about starving children, we'd be actively doing something to try and change their situation.
