This is a normal post Your moral high ground is looking a little bit shaky.
No longer addicted myself and no idea why Prufrock doesn't drink.
But the way you are apparently trying to weaponize addiction here to win internet arguments is really tacky.

Dude you want to post something constructive, I'll do the same. I have and claim no moral highground (except over Brexit where you fuckwits have been comprehensively proven to be retards) but don't fucking mock a genuine tragedy. I only expect that from Prufrock, who assumes that everyone is as much of despicable stalker shit as he is.

Neither of those were tragedies. They were the direct result of human instigated violence. Grenfell doesn't fit into that pocket, it was a horrific accident (made worse by hubris sure) not something that a person instigated on purpose.

This is a normal post How are you defying tragedies these days?
"tragedy

Noun

An event causing great suffering, destruction, and distress, such as a serious accident, crime, or natural catastrophe."


Also accident?

The Whirlpool fridge freezer that probably started it are part of a massive consumer safety scandal. whirlpool are refusing to do a recall on them despite causing loads of fires.

Combine that with the flammable cladding that was put on just so people in the area with much better housing didn't have to look at an eye sore and you've got a bit of blame to sling around.

Also you forgot to point out where I mocked it.

I don't see murder as an tragedy. I see it as the actions of an evil murderous shit. It's a terrible loss of life, but it wasn't an accident borne of hundreds of layers of mistakes, it is a distinct evil action attributable back to an individual.

Grenfell was a tragedy.

This is a normal post Ok you re-define the English language in order to fit your world view.
You mind if us plebs still use the word properly?

Also and I maybe I need to make myself clearer here.
"WHEN DID I MOCK GRENFELL?"

Almost like language is a mutable and constantly evolving thing. The US president calls the LA shootings a tragedy. I call it murder.

This is a normal post Ok I'm not going to argue semantics when someones writing their own dictionary.
BTW just had a look round /board for the first time in a while, looks like there were some entries based on Grenfell.

Now i'm going to do something more productive but i'll leave you with my mate Samuel.
