Tach sad :<

Man, it seems like everyone is dying.  We will probably find out the cause of death sooner or later, but as of right now there seems to be speculation that it was head trauma that he sustained on an airplane yesterday.

(insert an amazing conspiracy theory here)

[MagmarFire]

Man, this sucks... What up with all the death?

[Hi no Seijin]

I'm sorry, but I cannot make myself feel at all sad for Billy Mays and Michael Jackson.  I just didn't care for them.

That's weird. This must be Famous-People-Dying-At-Age-50 Week.

I could not agree more.

I just tend not to ever break down into tears over death because I believe, and don't hate me for this, that death isn't that big a deal because we're all going to die sooner or later and what's done is done.

Anyway, I hope I'm not breaking the mold of the topic...

I'm guessing you never lost anyone close to you?

Death is still a big deal, even if it is so common.  It's just that the closer you were to someone, the bigger a deal his/her death seems to you.  I didn't care much for Billy Mays, so I shrugged off his death.  However, when Misty, one of my dogs, died back in April, I felt sad.  I wasn't as sad as my mom or my sister, but I still miss her.  And if my mom or dad dies (hopefully from old age), I'm pretty sure I'm going to cry.

Death doesn't really effect me either. I work in a funeral home upon occasion soo... I've been kind of conditioned to appreciate it and accept it for what it is.
