So sorry Sir Actor if my referring to Ms Goody by her first name is deemed inappropriate.
It wasn’t inappropriate, just an indicator of how much time you spend watching TV.
Oh, is that a personal insult there? Surely not….
Your judgement is incorrect Sir Actor – I watch very little television, probably less than an hour a day, and I do not watch any of the reality shows. I have never seen Jade Goody on television apart from the odd appearances on the BBC news, and I do not read newspapers – I find it all too depressing and bearing no relation to how I see life. Any knowledge I have of Jade Goody and the countless other “celebrities” is gleaned from the radio, conversations with friends, and the BBC website….and of course forums such as this. My comments re her situation are based on human compassion, not “celebrity” worship.
Maybe your ability to judge people from their words here is as accurate as your truisms.

I agree with Reason, your comments re Jade are callous, I find them offensive and ignorant….I only thank god we didn’t bump into anyone like you on our little outings.
Do you mean Jade Goody….or did she become just “Jade” all of a sudden?
You’ve expressed an opinion and that’s fair enough, but why do you have to resort to personal insults to quantify your views? I feel sympathy towards Ms Goody of course I do, but that sympathy – with the wall to call coverage of her illness – is wearing slightly thin right now.
Please – by all means, express an opinion – but do it without the insults. There’s no need and If I can do it, I’m sure you can.
So sorry Sir Actor if my referring to Ms Goody by her first name is deemed inappropriate, I didn’t think anyone would be in any way confused by such a reference given your opening post. I shall henceforth observe the appropriate levels of formality.
I apologise if you felt I was personally insulting you, I don’t read it that way so maybe I have a thicker skin than I realised. I have obviously been misinterpreting your previous posts to others too. If you are that sensitive a little flower (which I sincerely doubt) might I suggest you avoid forum 3 in the night hours, they’ll tear you to shreds… :-
I am struggling to see the connection between your “truisms” and then your comments on Jade other than an attempt to justify or excuse your own callousness, but you do seem determined to live up to your truism. Fortunately I have come across men on the boards and in chat who do not live up to your truism, unfortunately I have also come across women who fall into the latter part of your truism.
I agree with Reason, your comments re Jade are callous, I find them offensive and ignorant, and I can only assume that you are fortunate enough to not have someone close to you die of cancer. It affects different people in different ways, but towards the end it is not uncommon for the sufferer to become too weak to stand or to walk for long distances. The use of a wheelchair then becomes a useful tool for continuing to make the most of the time remaining, rather than sitting at home, hiding from the world, as if apologising for your very existence.
As for being in need of our attention, yes she is making as much money as she possibly can for the benefit of her sons, but I suspect the media eye would be on her regardless, making the most of every little nuance, so why shouldn’t she make some money out of it – they will, as it will continue to sell their newspapers.
No doubt you will now hold up my response as evidence of your truism – well sorry to disappoint but I am far from vulnerable, I simply have worked with cancer sufferers, had close friends and relatives die of cancer, and yes, pushed a friend around in a wheelchair when she became too weak to walk. I would not have denied her that last pleasure any more than I would deny it to Jade, I only thank god we didn’t bump into anyone like you on our little outings.
May you and those you hold dear to you never have to suffer this awful disease.
or “babe”
Nurofen :D
