I can think of something even sicker than that! How about a site I found that that has a list (and adds to it all year) of celebrities that have passed on?
We're talking lists back to 1996 or so!
Another case of "trivalizing" human life. I read an article online last year about all the many celebrities that were passing on so close together. The guy that wrote it had the gall to write,"Actually,I thought they already were dead!"
It seems in the case of the famous,everything human about one's life gets tossed aside and everything about them,including passing on,is used in crude or insensitive ways. The paparazzi,the news media,Entertainment Tonight (a show I used to have at least some respect for,until they became so superficial),everydaypeople looking for any reason to extract $$$$ etc.
It's all a simple case of how in today's world,there's not a lot of respect for not just someone's life and privacy but just most people don't respect much of anything.
I'll stop now before I write a novel,once you get me started on something....well you know.
