    I have a sense of humor and all but I think jokes about him are a bit too soon.

    Yeah jesus the news just came out, at least give it a day or so!!!! Not a fan of this 'RIP' stuff but i think its very sad, especially as he battled for so long.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,499 ✭✭✭✭Exclamation Marc


    Such a shame, and such a sorry decline in health for someone who seemed to be quite a decent guy and a decent actor.

    RIP

    Quite pathetic if you ask me.I understand that AH is meant for laffs but I doubt if the originators envisaged such gross stupidity.

    Hi mods.

    *waves*.

    Now, before this thread is locked, I have a proposal. Instead of an outright ban on all jokes on this subject, how about we just ban the bad jokes ? As in the ones that are in no way amusing or intelligent whatsoever.

    With this proposal in mind, OP should be banned, wrapped up in cardboard, and shipped to Afghanistan whereupon their army will test their guns on him to see if they are in proper working order. He will also be prodded with rusty forks on a constant basis.

    I think this is a fair proposal.

    As someone whose mother successfully fought malignant cancer of the womb and ovaries and lived to tell the tale my thoughts are with Patrick Swayze's family.

    I remember him in North and South, a TV series about the American Civil War. All the ladies were swooning at the sight of Patrick in his uniform.

    at least have the decency to be in the non hypocritical "dont joke about the dead at all" camp, rather than the "dont joke about the dead until theyve been dead for a while, then its ok" camp

    At least Patrick can be safe in the knowledge that even though he has departed the earth there are still people to put on a totally shít public display.

    Lucky for you no one will remember you to make nasty comments about you when you kick the bucket :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,899 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    'Corner' sounds far too much like 'coroner' for there not to be jokes.

    Listen I don't like joking about the dead at all. The point I was making it was less than an hour that the man had died that you had some morons thinking they're funny making jokes about him. They're the ones with the bull**** responses. And they're the ones ruining AH thinking they're edgey.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,919 ✭✭✭ziggy23


    RIP Patrick. This song brought a tear to my eye:o http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVi4PUx8bXk&feature=related

    or theyre telling jokes they find amusing

    personally i hope i die in the most hilarious set of circumstances ever witnessed, and that thousands of people ive never met get the chance to make wonderfully funny jokes about it

    Or they're trying to be funny by being "shocking" because they lack the intelligence and originality to come up with something that's genuinely funny so they opt for shock value instead?

    These jokes aren't funny, the reason they ellicit a reaction at all is because they're so inappropriate. Making an intelligent joke is difficult to do so I guess most find it easier to go down the shock value route to make themselves feel funny. Inappropriate humor has it's place, but not when somebody has just died.

    to be fair, some dead celeb jokes are face meltingly funny

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,345 ✭✭✭✭jimmycrackcorm


    I just got totally confused - first of all I thought the Hoff had died ( saw a clip of him in Cockney London earlier on ), then "Bread" came on tv....


  • Registered Users Posts: 108 ✭✭Blaalarry


    Why is RIP posting so much?:confused:

    Dying hilariously is one thing. Dying slowly as cancer riddles your body is another.

    A sad loss. He had a great zest for life that we could all learn from.

    RIP.
