    i am about to say something contraversial!!

    i dont get why everyone on my FB has updated their status to say RIP stephen gately? did they all know him personally? do they all own his records? did they go to their come back gigs recently? no, no and no :confused: when MJ died i do get the fascination with that as he was hugely popular, but if you'd said something about stephen gately a week or so ago they would have either pretended not to know who he was, or said "oh that one from boyzone that confessed he was gay about 10 years after everyone else realised"

    dont get me wrong, it is sad, SO sad that someone so young has died, but it would seem everybody just seems to love a death, and its so wrong!

    i remember my auntie taking the mick out of me when i was 11 cos i went through a phase of liking boyzone, and she has updated her status to say how sad it is and how much he will be missed :confused:
    Haha I just put RIP because everyone else was lol
    The thing is with these things is yes loads of people die but not everyone knows them, i think because he is 'known' by loads of people that people think it's close to them IYSWIM.
    I'm trying to explain but cant find the words, just tyrint to say that yes MR jones may have died last night too, but I dont know Mr Jones, i dont know who he is and it hasn't been announced on the news so I'm hardly going to leave an RIP on FB for him am I?

    BTW I dont think what you have said it contrversial, just your opinion and a valid one at that :D

    Definitely do this:D
    I don't actually like that beauty thing you linked to Ikea stuff would be nicer, better quality and far more versatile:)

    Em - I agree with you too...It is sad when anyone dies, but why aren't all these people on facebook mourning the death of the hundreds who are dying every year in pointless wars. Which our taxes are paying for...surely there is far more to be upset about than one bloke who 99% of the population have never even met, and who had lived a life of luxury up to his death...not barely scraped a living to feed his kids etc etc etc.....

    They do there are loads of groups and pages for 'our fallen soldiers' on FB.

    Hmmm - I agree here. DS doesn't use words, but does make sounds. One favorite sound, sounds like no. He uses the Makaton sign for No a lot! :mad: I often wonder if its easier for him to use the sign - and maybe I should ignore the sign until he makes the effort and says it instead. :confused:

    Aw well - at least I am not 100% contraversial!!

    Horses for courses and all that.

    I've met your type before :p

    My brother just facebooked me to see if I'm in next week, it's kind of miraculous... I don't usually see him for my birthday present until November!

    Hubby's taken Aimee to town, was hoping he'd take caitlyn too so I could get some housework done, place is a bombsite and the in laws are coming Tuesday... He said he's not confident enough to take her outside on his own and all she's done is feed since they left and now they're on their way back!
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    AM - It is more the 'announcing it on status'' that is annoying iygwim......then again that is why I didn't really use facebook for ages, I probably use it far too much now;)

    Kai won't stop screaming!!!! (probably the reason I am coming across a bit tetchy in my posts)
