I'm not.


Although that's quite a way to go, I'd be ok with going out in a burning hypercar.

Any accident causing death is very sad. I thought he was younger though.

But the news guys can't resist... Since he was in Fast and Furious, they had to find burned rubber marks near by.
If they don't know, why don't they just shut up? In big cities, those are pretty much everywhere.

/*
"I don't know if the marks in the road are related to the crash," said Los Angeles County sheriff's Sgt. Brian Allen.

Think of Batman or The Crow. They'll figure something honorable for the man and the character he was playing.

What I meant by the reference was about Heath Ledger and Brandon Lee.

I don't know, man. They're both just two guys that we don't know, and If you're going to consider the deaths tragic you'll have no time to do anything else, because you'll have to think almost every death is tragic then. Let the families and relatives give a ****, we shouldn't, because they're insignificant to us.

Basically. No-one here actually care that Paul Walker is dead (maybe the odd Fast and Furious franchise fan does), and the other guy even less so, but he was a semi-recognisable public figure so it's normal to mention it.

He was apparently a really stand-up nice guy who did a lot of charity pro bono in his free time. Never knew the man or loved the F&F movies, so it's whatever, but it sucks that someone else killed him. If he were driving it likely would've not happened. Plus he just finished filming F&F 7, so there's that top look forward to.

Why shouldn't we care? Because in our LIVES he's nobody, and I suggest people and their emotional feelings for somebody you haven't met in any way should go away. If he donated to charity - he's done it, it doesn't go away if he dies. If he was going to donate more, too bad, let the affected starving kids in Africa or whatever care, we shouldn't, with out iPhones and computers. If he was a good guy to work with, let the people he worked with care, why should we care? He never did anything useful for us. He never finished your ****ing essays or gave you money for taxes or stuff. He was a rich white guy that happened to be placed in fast cars that were recorded and had explosions that were probably digitally imposed afterwards, and suddenly all of that became real with a lot less of what made it cool.

And that is why I suggest people shouldn't care. If I die tomorrow, what would you think? I suppose not a whole lot, so then why should people care more about this other stranger? Because he was basically your ****ing court jester?

There is no reason for all of the people that sat in a chair or a sofa and watched pretty pictures, occasionally grunting at speshul scenes while shovelling **** in your mouth, to care about this man's death.

And one for the douchebag pile.  Boo ****ing hoo.

Just because you're a small, ignorant, unimportant man that even family won't remember doesn't make you the sterling model of humanity.  Considering your post count and its content of mean, ignorant or plain stupid commentary, I'm confused as to why you joined in the first place.  Is it just to be that guy that has to be the douchenozzle because it's the internet and someone has to?  Is your own life so empty you have to denigrate and degrade everyone around you?

You asked what people would think if you died tomorrow and I, for one, would be happy.  Happy to not have your toxic idiocy taint my day.  Other people wouldn't give a **** because you leave literally zero mark anywhere. (See: small, ignorant and unimportant)

TIL being able to provide an escape from the modern grind isn't anything.

I care because my good friend who I've been close with since I was 5 years old was Paul's closest friend.  In the course of less than 2 years, my friends lost his dad and now his best friend.  Paul affected my friends life in so many positive ways, and my friend wouldnt be where he is today without Paul.  The internet is a big place, your lack of compassion and arrogance are offensive to friends and family and im glad that my friend isnt a keyboard geek so he doesnt have to be exposed to your lack of humanity.

Well I care.  I'm a big fan of those F&F movies, so I'm sad.

I also care about the 4 people who died in the Metro North Train Derailment that happened this morning in Bronx, NY.  The NY Post is calling it a "bloodbath".  And it looks like the derailment was caused by the motorman speeding around a curve.  Our Mayor should be commended on his administration of the trains.  Way to go Bloomie, great job.

Making friends as usual I see...

Listen, nobody here wants to hate you. We really don't. But you make it so easy it's kinda hard not to...



Back on topic, Paul Walker...

Never really followed the Fast & Furious movies, but judging by the fact that he died in a car crash, I'd say it's how he'd have wanted to go.  Still a shame though...

What exactly do you want me to say? I don't know how he impacted the lives of every person that is mourning him. Sure, to me and you he was nobody significant other than an entertainer.  But then you have somebody like Chris that did impact him personally. So there is no need for you to come in here and tell people they shouldn't give a **** simply because you don't. THAT is what I'm getting at.

You say no one cares here?
I said nobody should care.

why's that? you're the authority of what people should and shouldn't care about now?


like i said, it's THAT guy. there is always one.
Why shouldn't we care? Because in our LIVES he's nobody, and I suggest people and their emotional feelings for somebody you haven't met in any way should go away. If he donated to charity - he's done it, it doesn't go away if he dies. If he was going to donate more, too bad, let the affected starving kids in Africa or whatever care, we shouldn't, with out iPhones and computers. If he was a good guy to work with, let the people he worked with care, why should we care? He never did anything useful for us. He never finished your ****ing essays or gave you money for taxes or stuff. He was a rich white guy that happened to be placed in fast cars that were recorded and had explosions that were probably digitally imposed afterwards, and suddenly all of that became real with a lot less of what made it cool.

And that is why I suggest people shouldn't care. If I die tomorrow, what would you think? I suppose not a whole lot, so then why should people care more about this other stranger? Because he was basically your ****ing court jester?

There is no reason for all of the people that sat in a chair or a sofa and watched pretty pictures, occasionally grunting at speshul scenes while shovelling **** in your mouth, to care about this man's death.

 :-*

****, i hope you're like 12 or something because you try WAY too hard.

but with that said, people are different. some mourn the lost of celebs, some don't. and you aren't anybody to tell people what they should care about.

and to answer your question, yeah i wouldn't give a ****. but i find you annoying so maybe that's why.

Good to see you have noting to say on the actual topic and instead keep judging people with predictable cop-outs and a few narrow minded arguments. I don' think the "priority" or "authority" it seems you think I think I have is exclusive to me, it's something I think everyone has. Or should have. I never said I'm the whiteknight and saviour of how people should feel and think, but provided arguments against something I saw as unnecessary. If you think the way I express myself is asinine and/or stupid, live happily ever after with your hatred of a random guy on the internet and lack of substantial contribution to a topic.

What exactly do you want me to say? I don't know how he impacted the lives of every person that is mourning him. Sure, to me and you he was nobody significant other than an entertainer.  But then you have somebody like Chris that did impact him personally. So there is no need for you to come in here and tell people they shouldn't give a **** simply because you don't. THAT is what I'm getting at.

Ftr I don't hate you. I just find you annoying. Or do you want to tell me how I should feel about you?

I want for you to stay on topic sometimes and PM me (although it's hard for you to guess I assume it's a logical course of action) if you have any problems with me. Actually it'd be nice if everyone did that. And I have repeated several times in most of my posts here that people close to him should be affected, let them mourn and grieve and care all they want.

How is your ****ty attitude about the dude being dead and people mourning him that you claim shouldn't "on topic" exactly?

Oh right, it's not.

See: Small, ignorant and unimportant.

To be honest, I also think mourning celebs is dumb and pathetic, but I don't care enough to get involved in the drama/lulz.

Since it's called simply "R.I.P. Paul Walker" means that the range of what can be considered on topic is pretty wide, but arguments between two people about stuff not related to Paul Walker being dead, or death itself isn't on topic.

If a thread is called "Discuss" and people start discussing, saying "The thread wasn't called Discuss ClickClacks, you morons" isn't valid, nor on the topic of discussion. What I posted seems to be within the purpose of this thread because the thread name is not very specific, but mentions someone being dead.

Basically |-onions-|                   *INSERT STUFF ABOUT ONIONS*                       |-onions-| That space is labelled onions and nothing more.

Seriously, what the **** are you even discussing anymore?

You're running off on tangent after tangent to make it seem as though your argument is greater than it is, when in reality, your petty discussion was destroyed from it's inception. Give it up.

i thot i wus discussin why me stuff is on topic

No, seriously. I started talking about how I felt about people caring about a stranger's death, people got upset and they've dug so far into it that it's become annoying for me, even. I wanted to leave it after the discussion with demik, which I think had a good enough conclusion. But then people HAD to keep arguing against and digging into my onions (but obviously not before crashing the train), and I naturally respond, which lead me to what I am discussing right now: Why what I posted was on topic.

You're the one who decided to determine what was and wasn't on topic. People tried to dispel your on topic argument, and they are the ones who went off topic?

He's also the one to determine who can and can't mourn someone, too.

When I ****ing post something about the dead ****ing guy and **** in a thread about the dead guy, it's on topic, and when people beg to differ ON THE TOPIC OF THE DEAD GUY and opinions and stuff ABOUT THE DEAD GUY, it's fine. But when people start talking about ME (A guy that isn't American and doesn't drive fast cars) in a thread about someone else (A guy that drove fast cars and was American), I think I can say they're off topic.
And for tjcaustin... Have this empty space ->

"Listen, nobody here wants to hate you. We really don't. But you make it so easy it's kinda hard not to..."

Quote of the day.

Seriously guys... Peace!

Lets create a life and death thread where we can continue our pointless arguments. 
But leave this one for those who care about the death of Mr PW.

And here you are talking about how what you say is the gilded standard of things again.  It's ok to tell people that it's wrong to mourn, but not ok to tell you what you said isn't right in your head?  I need to know, are you actually a retarded person?
