Heh, short time.

What an inoportune week to skip sensitivity training class.

I try to ignore it as much as possible. But then it just gets to be too much.

Then you tell me to chill. lol. I am actually chill and laughing at you people who make bad bad distasteful jokes and then you get offended when I call you on it. If you are man enough to make the joke be man enough to stand up to be criticism.

This is funnier than the time I saw the cops bust some john picking up a teenage whore at the WEM BP!

Who comes into a thread like this looking for anything other than bad short jokes? Once you get past "he's dead" and "he was in that crap show and did nothing else even remotely notable" what else is there to say?

Dazzle us, JAG. Tell us a story about how Gary Coleman touched your life and made the world a better place. Show us the way.

Or - just keep bitching about content without adding any. It's far easier, I'm sure.

Some of you guys are relentless. Why can't you just let the people enjoy chatting without getting into how much smarter you are then them? Jammies, just walk away from my posts. I am not interested in your wit.

I did enjoy watchng Different Strokes. It was a funny show in its time. It is a shame that in later years Gary Coleman had to deal with more and more jokes about his size. Even when he passes away the jokes continue. It is a weak person who can go online and make another short joke.

We get it. We understand the many ways you can use the word short to say something. Now show some respect and leave.

It's the internet. You clearly can't handle the level of jackassery that is present online -- this is but a drop in the bucket. If you read YouTube posts your head would probably explode.

People are dicks on the interwebz that are normally social vagabonds, and people are dicks on the interwebz that are normally dicks. Basically, everyone's a giant penis when they sign onto their computer. It's the way of the world.

I know you don't read Sinfest JAG, because it involves humour, but I really do picture you as being exactly like Seymour. Not so much in the religious fanaticism (thank god), but in the fact that your little world is so disconnected from reality that you really do become just a caricature.

But don't worry. Coleman will be put four feet under in a couple days and people will move on to something else for you to crusade against.

The tributes are now starting to pour in: Emmanuel Lewis just falling short of labelling his late contemporary a giant of the entertainment industry.

I must have missed the part where you "enjoyed chatting" and went right to the part where you were, once again, telling other people what is and isn't appropriate. Why don't you take you own advice and "walk away" from posts you don't approve of, instead of interminably trying to play the moral censor?

Hypocrisy annoys the hell out of me and I'm going to keep pointing it out when I see it and can be bothered. If you'll stop playing preacherman to the ignorant masses, you won't have to have your delicate sensibilities offended by my "wit".

Well, he screwed up when he misspelled Diff'rent Strokes. He probably wasn't old enough to have actually watched it.

You know what guys, I think we've had enough of the piling on here. It's clear that a lot of people do not care that he is dead; and that is fine. But please allow those of us who are saddened by his passing to say our little bit; and possibly share some memories of a person who entertained a great number of us.

Myself I was actually a little sad when I heard the news. Diff'rent Strokes was a show I used to look forward to as a kid; and I actually liked seeing Coleman make cameos as an adult. (Simpsons for example.)

Thanks to Gary for the entertainment he provided, and I hope he has now found the peace the eluded him for much of his life.

So you are crusading to stop all hypocrisy. When all I asked was people show some respect for the dead. I have walked away from hundreds of posts that I don't like. But I step up and ask for some respect and now I am the moral censor. Exaggerate much?
