I think Gonzo sums it up here: www.b3ta.com/board/10051162 As sad as recent events are, I didn't think B3ta would spawn grief-Nazis, a bit like a random bloke in the pub two days after Diana's funeral who took umbrage because I was laughing at something a mate said.
What have you found slightly irksome today?

If you asked people individually they would say sad, lets move on. But no-one wants to look like a twat so thy align themselves to the masses, this then becomes self perpetuating.

I was quite angry and I even wrote a letter at the time to a newspaper calling them murdering scumbags and my mum didn't let me send it.
True story, I still don't like it when people say bad things about her, well, depending on context. But when it's a "Look at mee, I'm so liberal, down with the system, she was a whore" type thing. She's the best 'media whore' this country has ever had, which got over-played by The Daily Express. She did so much charity work, as much as any other royal/semi-royal I can think off, she genuinly used her power to help the poor, and I think she felt the guilt of the UK's emplorial days.

Because to me, that says she was doing stuff for attention rather than just being exploited to death

i thought it was sad because two young biys had lost their mother, the publics reaction was massively over the top and completely nonsensical.

... it doesn't matter if your mum works behind the till at Sainsburys or she's, well, princesses diana, it's just as devistating.

But then who decides how long before we post funnies again? Some people were still protesting this afternoon, the hypocrisy of one poster ticked me off.
I never knew the girl, I don't even recall any particular posts of hers. Had I have known her, especially in person, I'd have been straight on with a tribute CDC thread. Yay for the B3ta spirit. After all, how many of you here would want the forums to stop if and when your demise is announced? Me personally I'd want as tasteless a thread as possible.

the fact that my fiancee can't be arsed to clear out her voicemails or keep her cell phone on. I tried to call her to ask her something of some importance and couldn't even leave a message, despite her promise a week ago to clear out the voicemails that have been in there since December.
So if she doesn't like the decision I made without her, tough fucking shit.

Had carefully planned what to cook over the next few days.
Went over to friends room to do quantum tutorial sheet.
Finally finish sheet far to late to cook proper food.
Have to rework food plan, and will now be lucky if I manage to cook all the meat before it goes off.
Had a really nice bit of salmon for tonight too :(

I didn't know her personally. I'm sure she was a lovely young lady and the loss of such a young life is always devastating. But for the board nazi's to get all over it is a bit silly when people are trying to do their own tributes to her. Any true B3tan would love for all kinds of tasteless and irreverant crap to be posted on here upon their demise (including me....god, the fun you lot could have ;))
My two cents..
