Because I too am a human being. I know how a normal human being would respond, internally, to such a thing. I know how they feel when you physically stab them, being one, and I know how they feel when you put their picture on a public web site and make comments on how ugly they’ve gotten as they’ve aged, again, being one.
The only question is HOW impactive it is.
If she is an adult I am sure she has developed a thick skin. Nevertheless to her it is not “light humor”. It would be hurtful to any reasonable human being.
It is not light. It is hurtful. It’s like those pitures of famous female stars taken of them in bikinis on beaches showing how “ugly” they are.
Just sayin’.
kudos on your comments.
I posted the thread not as a joke or make fun of Carrie Fisher. It is how she has become since she became Princess Leah. I am sorry if it offended you, but people have different perceptions. But I am sure that you had some fun with it, even if only a bit. You would not have posted your comments otherwise (positive or negative). Carrie Fisher is public figure and I am sure this is not the first time that her “aged” picture has been made public, whether in print or in more public websites. Sadly, entertainers have to take the flak the public gives them since without the public, they’re nothing.
I agree with you RobRoy.
Go to the ‘fashion police’ threads and you will see more of the same.
We are all shocked to see such a change in this woman but we really don’t know what she’s been through, the illnesses and things that led to such a vast change. We haven’t walked in her shoes.
In a free society no one has a right to not be offended, particularly a public figure who relies on the public paying them.
If you need the last word, have at it. I’m done with it.
