I agree. Happens a lot in Britain, grieving and being offended are like national sports here imo. One example: There was a footballer called Fabrice Muamba who had a cardiac arrest on the pitch and nearly died on television. The nation went into a massive forced outpouring of grief, everybody posting tributes, players getting t shirts printed, all sorts, it was cringey as fuck. A football fanzine printed this cover and got absolutely slated for it - http://www.whoateallthepies.tv/wp-co...2/03/ri260.jpg

I thought it was funny as fuck and bang on.
