My emotions aren't rawI didn't know the guy, I didn't even like his tv show!
The situation is raw. Humour is a healing factor, and I do believe there's a place for jokes, it helps us move on is ultimately a healthy thing.
...but there is also a time, and it depends on it being joking about not personal digs. As I said- I didn't expect any different from b3ta, nor do I have a problem with the majority of posts I've seen on the subject, I'm just aware that I will be leaving it alone myself for a while, at least until all the facts are out and the family/friends has had chance to come to terms with it a bit.

But, fromt he picture abovethere is no speculation.
Fact one - he killed himself
Fact two - we now know he left a suicide note
Fact three - when he was alive he did a kids arty based programme thing.
All of those are represented above. The contents of the note we shall probably never know, however the poster chose a turn of phrase often associated with suicide.
There is nothing in the above post that I can deem offensive. Yes, someones death isn't something to revel in, but as far as a good idea goes, it isn't bad.

It wasn't me who claimed to have a problem with this postI've already said I don't. I said it's too soon for me to want to join in on the whole subject.

Yeahit wasn't a direct 'at you' kind of post, more of a summary of concerns from the various posters.
