The two things are not mutually exclusive. Thus it's not ignorant. Calling something what it can sometimes be doesn't lessen any empathy one might feel for that or any other case. It's always sad. It's far easier to jump on the empathy bandwagon or the 'never speak ill of the dead' trope than to dare to say anything remotely to the contrary. You and others are simply saying narcissism can play no part at all in suicide or mental health issues. I disagree that's all. Then those including me who have called it as such will be wrong about this particular case. Edit: A very brief google brought up this. You can decry that as wrong if you so choose and I have no idea of the veracity or accuracy of 'psychology today' in particular, but clearly there are people better qualified than I who say there's a link.

We've agreed about many things. Not this though. People are different, narcissism absolutlely is a characteristic of some suicides. It may not be of others and I accept your experience may be otherwise of course but that doesn't make it the silliest thing all week.

This bollocks really does do my head in. She made something like 10 million quid from singing Princes song. And we are supposed to feel exactly what because she can't cope with life? The bloke who does my gardening for 15 quid a fucking hour has had a worse life than this by more than a small margin. Give me a fuckin' break.

He should stick to waving gladioli about. twat.

Sadly missed by the entirety of the uk.

Oh and whilst I'm on it and attracting hate - if it turns out it was 'because she couldn't bear the loss of her child' attracting yet more sympathy... What about the other three that she's now left behind? Hate me if you like but she was selfish.

I'll be the only one to be so distrespectful of the dead. But she was always an attention seeker - topped herself for sure. Lots of people have problems, hers were worse because she could sing? Bleh. And Prince wrote the song anyway. Now that was a loss.

And the power thus generated used to fuel 'politician-powered-london-buses' in a sense beyond that they'd envisaged.

Snitch.

Don't care for a lot of early Beatles with a couple of exceptions. Might turn up to vote for Animals and Stones, but if their competition is Cilla they don't need me. If they do need me I don't want to play with the people that made it so anyway if I'm honest, Cilla is/was execrable as a person and her songs were even worse.

Much to my own surprise once I saw the list, yes. Nothing I like and equally nothing I hate enough to bother.

The thing is, I dont care if I make a twat of myself so long as once in a while I'm amusing. And you are disappearing so far up your own arsehole a greased spatula isn't going to rescue you.

Ah now, this is the thing. Celts v England. Yeah, ok.

Preferring the filth of inherited privilege, bringing us Charlie the tampon, Andy the paedo and Harry the total dickhead. But yeah, I hear you. There has to be a better way.

So. Daft then.

Facepalm all you like fucknuts. Compose one post anyone thinks makes a decent point.

The trouble is I know that and I still don't really get it. There's so much history and I just don't get the 'why?'. Really don't care though, like all these things its just stupid in the end. Bite me.

I've really never got this, the whole rangers / celtic thing. Is it football, religion or simply tribalism at it's most basic? Forgive my cynicism, this seems unlikely.

He wishes.
