[quote uid=729 name="Red Astaire" post=1361589]Sighs We are going to have to agree to disagree. I get your point regarding the facebook thing. I wouldn't do it but that's my choice - If other people feel the need to empathise and do it (or anything) then that is theirs. Who am I or you to tell them otherwise?
'putting a flag up is in bad taste' is simply a ridiculous statement. Showing empathy in whatever way is a personal choice. Still each to their own *goes back to eating a croissant*[/QUOTE]
This may deserve a new thread.
By the way, when Facebook reminds you that it's the birthday of someone you know, do you post a message on their wall to wish them well? Or do you contact them directly instead?
