How many times do you see a RIP thread and think who's that?0 -
Met her at Wembley Arena circa 1998. I ponced a couple of cigarettes off of her and chatted for 5 / 10 mins.
Real shame, RIP.0 -
Why bother passing comment then?buckshee said:Jesus you lot.

What's worrying about regretting the departing of someone that we all were aware of.buckshee said:

You are in a hole. Stop digging.

Buckshee, you do of course have the option, having read RIP in the thread title, to simply pass on by without passing comment.buckshee said:

So argue about it on another thread then0

I know what you mean, I only wish these threads had titles or headings or SOMEthing that meant you could tell what it would be about before clicking on it. To be honest, it's pretty disgraceful that titles like that don't exist on this forum, and you're totally right to be annoyed that you have to keep clicking and reading to find out what they're about.buckshee said:Drowning in a see of RIP threads on here lately.

I don't see any sign of disrespect on this thread. I think the point is that people die every day. Someone on this form probably loses someone they know or are related to at least once a week. Millions of people go through personal heartache all the time yet they don't have threads dedicated to their loved ones because they're not famous. Then someone who was 'famous for being famous' dies and the thread gets 20 'RIP's in a matter of minutes. You can understand why it's puzzling to some people.3

This is to place to be if you want to keep up with deaths that's for sure.
I also believe the complete lack of interest and our current hell of going nowhere as a football club is contributing to this culture of "shit, someone's died, I better put this on Charlton life".
Be interesting to know how many RIP threads there were in 2011/12 season.0 -
Classy. Shame people are ignoring your advice though and detracting from the OP with a lack of respect. RIP btw out of respect for those that passed.i_b_b_o_r_g said:0 -
I was taught "if you've got nothing nice to say - don't say anything"
RIP Tara. Always struck me as someone lonely and looking for someone to share her life with. Playing the role of "crazy bird" because it's what people expected of her. Maybe I'm wrong and she was happy and contented but I just don't see it.4 -

Can I start the disrespect? Can't see she's ever done a useful days work in her life but had enough dosh to poke copious amounts of coke up her nose. An RIP thread demeans this board. PWP!-4

From your first five words you've admitted you're being disrespectful........did you get a kick out of it?harveys gardener said:Can I start the disrespect?

We are all different, some folk treat life and death with considerable emotion and reverence, we are just wired up differently. Especially those of us who have had a life threatening illness/ experience.
You should also 'respect' that as one gets older the more you are likely to notice and reflect upon it.
Into the bargain you appear to be mocking those of us who hold these values and emotions......and obviously enjoying doing so!
It would clearly suggest you are a somewhat shallow person wth little empathy, especially as you go out of your way to express your insensibility towards others with differing emotions to yourself.12 -

Would you go to a stranger's funeral and question what they had done to deserve people paying their respects?harveys gardener said:Can I start the disrespect?

Or would you ignore it and get on with your life...

So what if she chose to do that? If you had enough money and managed to be able to avoid to doing useful days work, wouldn't you (avoid work)? - I know I would.harveys gardener said:Can I start the disrespect?

What demeans this board is disrespect. The title thread clearly states what the thread is about. Here's a novel idea - don't post on it.5 -
I'm siding more with harveys gardener here. Yes, it's sad for those who know them when someone dies, or at least it usually is. Sometimes they've been so awful to the people they know, it's a relief, but let's stick with the others. Why do we have to have an RIP thread on here? Perhaps it's because they are related Charlton, for example Paul Went, or to football, for example Graham Taylor, or are something great about the world, for example David Attenborough, when he finally shuffles off this mortal coil? If we're going to have one for Tara, what about all the other people none of us knew, some of whom would have been far more deserving of our respect that someone who was essentially a waste of space.ricky_otto said:

Is that how you gauge how much respect a person should get when the pass away, by the amount of "useful days work" you perceive them to have done?harveys gardener said:Can I start the disrespect?

So, you have to decide if someone was a waste of space or not before you show your respects. I'm sure no one would suggest otherwise.AddicksAddict said:

Why not let those who think an individual deserving choose for themselves......just like you will.
If you don't, then avoid reading or even more ridiculous..........posting in a RIP thread, it's neither the time or place......it's called RESPECT!4 -
"Useful day's work" is possibly a good place to start. What criteria do you use, @i_b_b_o_r_g, or all people equally worthy of your respect?i_b_b_o_r_g said:

TPT had done nothing to harm me.
There is a saying that you should never speak ill of the dead.
Of course there are exceptions to the rule.0 -
I don't necessarily respect everyone, in fact I definitely don't, but I try not to disrespect people, especially when they've just died mate.AddicksAddict said:

If you don't care about the person in question, don't open the thread in the first place. There's plenty of other threads to go on to air your crazy outspoken views. I don't think this was meant to debate TPT's lifestyle, or the overall point of RIP threads, it's meant (a) to inform other members that a well known person has died and then to (b) maybe show some respect, leave some sort of anecdote or say nothing and leave.
Would you turn up to someone's funeral and start pointing out all their failings?
