Perhaps you could give an example? Rather then just being snide.

tenaka2

Myself as a teacher.

Anyone can become a teacher, it doesnt take much effort. Winehouse was a talented musician not many people can do that.

Those that can't do, teach.

Thats not true, at least not for all teachers.

Finishing a degree in a specific field (in order to teach it) is a noteworthy effort on its own.

Not to mention a lot of teachers have to get Masters degrees to teach in Higher education

I appreciate the job teachers do, but I wound not rank it higher then most other jobs. Drug addict or not she was a very good artist and will be remembered as such.

tenaka2

We'll disagree there.

No clue what you felt the need to try and ridicule teachers.

No clue why you felt the need to ridicule musicians.

And there is a high turnover rate in teaching for a good reason. It is not easy ....by a long shot.

Haha, you really don't know what it takes to be a teacher...

Keep on celebrating drug infested people, doesn't hurt me at all.

A good artist? If it's really art, then it's not good or bad. Some people like it, some people don't, and that's the end of it. I happen to be somebody who doesn't like it. In my opinion, she didn't contribute anything worthwhile to this world. All she did was add to our already drugged up, shallow, narcissistic, indifferent, and uneducated youth culture. Our species didn't lose anything by her death; we gained back some of our dignity.

Could you give an example of you personally contributing more?

A drug addict found dead.

I'm not surprised.

I bet this will get almost as much coverage as the Norway bomb/shooting

First, while I have indeed contributed more to society than Amy Winehouse, I'm not going to get into a personal discussion about my profession with you. So, second, for argument's sake, we'll pretend I have not contributed anything. Now, assuming I have not contributed anything, there are two points I would like to make.

A) Yours is an illogical point of argument. Even if I personally have not contributed anything, that does nothing to change the fact that Amy Winehouse has also contributed nothing and that you're defending her sad life for no reason. For purposes of this argument, if you're going to accept my premise that she has done nothing, then sure you can criticize me for also doing nothing, but you must criticize her as well.

B) The real answer to your question, though, is that Amy Winehouse not only didn't contribute to our culture, she actually detracted from our culture with her destructive "art," as you call it. Therefore, even by contributing nothing to our culture, I have still contributed more to our culture than Amy Winehouse.

So you have contributed nothing, yet fans of Winehouse have had their lives improved by her music. I appreciate that your not a fan, your not forced to be.

Yes, disregard my entire post because you have no answer for it. Great tactic.

It's nice that you keep stating your opinion over and over, but that doesn't really mean anything. In your opinion, some lives might be "improved" because of her music. From my perspective, the influence her music has had on people has made the world an even worse place to live.

She was a junkie with nothing of value to say, who people with nothing of value to think latched onto for a few years. Whether you agree or disagree is up to you, but she did not objectively "improve" or contribute to anything on this planet, other than the number of dead drug addicts and the trashy celebrity gossip industry.

And you say this in a freaking funeral thread...reminds me about that time where someone degraded Michael Jackson's death by saying Megan Fox was more noteworthy than that story.

Of course it was opinionated. That's why I qualified everything by saying it was "my opinion." You just can't handle one that's different from yours.

If I couldn't handle opinion different from mine I doubt I would post here.

You still havn't mentioned your personal contribution to the world which in you view is more worthy to Winehouses?

Anyone can become a teacher, it doesnt take much effort. Winehouse was a talented musician not many people can do that.

Those that can't do, teach.

this is whats wrong with society, ill take a teacher any day of the week than this drug addict, people ideolize and defend this kind of people who are nothing short of a mistake of society who only gives bad examples over someone who actually takes the effort of passing down real knowledge and education.

Mocking the dead for lulz is tasteless so my condolences are given. She lead a hard life but sometimes we should moderate ourselves, even on the internet.

I think she looks hotter in the right picture.

You do have an interesting taste.

I feel like I could pick her up and snap her with my thumb like a pencil in the right picture. Nothing hot about that, unless you have a crack fiend fetish

Didn't even know who she was. When I heard the name I knew it was familiar like I've heard itsomewhere before, but now there is no point. Who was she? Who cares?

Was never a fan of her music and I'm pretty much indifferent to her passing, but it's still pretty disheartening to see a 27 year old (celebrity or not) with their lives ahead of them just waste it away like that. Drugs are bad (except marijuana), stay in school kids.
