i think its deplorable. those bast**ds doing that. they said that they can get around the legality of it because she is dead. its sick IMO

[KTS]

I agree. Tastesless, sick, and twisted. Utterly disgusting.

[damien]

Yes, Princess Di is in the public domain so its anything goes.

[Slayer]

It's absolutely disgusting and it makes me feel sick.

Have we no respect for anything now? Even the dead?

[Bootyzilla]

It's so ut of character for Marvel, though... they were always about 'Hey, I'm okay, you're okay' cheesy PC-ness for years, even in the more adult titles they do, the moral of the story was always very clear and very American. And to do something like a Di concept is totally out of character...

*hides in the corner, realising she's the only one with this kind of sick and twisted sense of humour*

i'm a terrible terrible person..

[odyssey_scot]

Pyx....I suggest Johnny the Homicidal Maniac/Lenore/Squee/Fillerbunny from the Slave Labor comic label, they should be available in any good comic store...
I think we have similar (read sick) senses of humour..

[lil mizz pyx]

heehee
I may or may not have a coupla issues of Johnny in my room at this very moment.

I have a terrible sense of humour.
I not only laugh at dead baby jokes, I make the damn things up.
It's a sickness, I tell ya!


(but one I enjoy thoughrally)

[Bootyzilla]

I agree with you two!
I think it's actually very funny... I can see it now...

Faster than a speeding bullemic!
Can leap tall lepers in a single tiara!

That sort of thing. Oh, Tastelessness, thy name is Booty...

[lil mizz pyx]

LOL at Booty...

[amnesiac]

Hypocrites. I've heard people rant about this Mutant Di plan who hgave told more than one Princess Diana joke in there time. The hypocrisy of humanity will never cease to amaze me...

[odyssey_scot]

we all make jokes about the twin towers etc. Apparently its a way for society to process atrocities and stuff, that we make jokes about them.
I personally just have a very strange sense of humour. I mean the majority of my comics are humorous, and pretty much all of that humour is very very dark. I think some people can take things waaaaaay too seriously. I mean just because some character in my comic has just blown up a bouncy castle and sent all the little kiddies flying into the air (it was particularly hilariously done), that doesnt mean I actually like little kids dying in reality.
Sometimes people just need to get off their high horses

Its almost as bad as those that speculate who the father of her son Harry is. Theres no difference in my eyes. Spiling her memory one way is as bad as spoling it another.

Remember playing Theme Park before and that used always happen if you didn't maintain the rides properly, used to love that. Especially when people got thrown out of the dangerous roller coaster [)]

IS it OK for celebrities' personal lives to be in the public domain while they're alive (and liable to be angered/hurt/unhinged/whatever) by what they read in the redtops/glossies/GayCork.com but not after they have shuffled off this mortal coil?

lmao. or like in tomb raider, ya try and see what various ways you can get her killed. sick, maybe, but so much fun..


I don't understand society, on the one hand we're very into all this horror film genre, and all that, then we expect everyone to just turn that off for "real people". They're famous, that's what they live for. If Di didnt want to be in the public eye, she could have just become a recluse, a lot of formerly-famous people do. If you're using the media to get your own point across (like she did with the famous interview on british television), then expect to be treated like what you are, a commodity.

[amnesiac]

There was an interesting article in The Observer yesterday about cutting and darkly humourous remarks published in FHM about climbers who had lost their lives on Everest, next to pictures of frozen corpses. This, the Di thing and the release of Veronica Guerin have led me to question my views re. "speaking ill of the dead." It's a funny and paradoxical subject really. Why do the dead earn respect the living don't? Are a grieving relative's sensibilities more important than a celebrity's?
