[News] Van goes over cliff by the marina.

[Dick Head]

I’m getting a bit sick now of arguing with folk that I don’t know about someone that I suspect nobody on here knows we all have different ways of dealing with stressful situations and death etc
Can we not just get back to the football

Football expert now are we?

This country has a history of using black humour to get through awful circumstances.

It’s seems that’s another national characteristic we’ve lost and I’m not sure that’s a good thing.

If you want to be upset about every death ever get on with it just don’t expect everyone to feel the same

I am sad it happened, but 'wanting to be upset?' No, it was just something I wouldn't choose to joke about.

Fair enough

Talk about a witch hunt.

Er

 

[Mr Putdown]

Any specific reason for your outburst?

Gallows humour (I think that's what you meant when you said black humour) isn't peculiar to these islands and some gobshite piling in on a stranger's grief isn't gallows humour, it's trolling and disrespectful. I wasn't offended or upset but you can **** off for being a triggered, free speech broflake.

 

[Mr Putdown]

wtf is a “triggered, free speech broflake”?

Are you incapable of actually communicating in English?

Edit: Don’t bother answering. Life’s too short to waste.

I think this has gone rather well.

Can't offer any RIP to such a thoughtless individual. There are many ways of killing yourself which don't endanger other people.

You've just guaranteed another 26 pages FFS! Appreciate what you're saying, while also appreciating that it almost certainly wasn't a rational act, a person so broken that they are resorting to that isn't going to be thinking along those lines in the same way that a person who jumps in front of the 1742 Gatwick Express isn't concerning him or herself that Mr and Mrs Commuter might not make it to their 7pm Pilates class in Hove or that the train driver may never recover mentally. Pure speculation obviously as to the van driver's situation btw.

If it was suicide, perhaps he/she was in such a terribly dark place mentally, that they didn’t think through that aspect?

You never can pick it on NSC....Such an awful incident and terrible loss of life, I've never heard of people taking their lives there by driving over the edge, so I'm guessing its an accident. Particularly at that time of morning...But I guess we'll never know... Too sad...

It’s quite confusing how this could have happened but it’s tragic whatever the circumstance.
As for the earlier joke, appropriate or not it was clearly not meant to be cruel, it’s not like the poster directed it at the poor soul who has died.
A sorry story, whatever the cause.

 

[BN9 BHA]

People die everyday mate and jokes get made about it

Tw@t

 

[BN9 BHA]

Embarrassing thread.
Amazing how some threads get locked and moved to other stuff by the mods, and here we have posters blatantly taking the piss out of someone local taking their own life.
