This has been generally stated above, but there is such a huge difference between being annoyed that something is being over-talked and over-covered, and going out of your way to talk about how you couldn't care less that someone is dead. It's just.. not classy. So a bunch of teenage girls are weeping over a celebrity passing- let them. I promise you, they WILL get over it. And you'll be a little bit less awful by stepping back and keeping your trap shut.

The royal baby shit is over the top, yeah. The royal family shit is always over the top. But when Cory Monteith died, there were folks immediately chomping at the bit to let everyone know how much they didn't care. You can't blame that on over-saturation.

I'm a really overly compassionate person, and death bothers me no matter who it happens to. I didn't know Cory personally, I stopped watching Glee a long time ago. But a man died. He ceased to exist, alone in a hotel room, losing a fight against substance abuse that he'd been battling since he was a teenager. You're kind of a shitty person if you're taking the time to tell everyone how much you don't give a damn. It is an exclusively mean-spirited action. If you're asked? If someone asks you how you feel? Go for it. But otherwise, shut up.

Same goes for people crying over his or any celeb death and posting or talking about it. No one asked them, so they should shut up too. If you allow them to express their grief, allow those who don't care or are frustrated by the inundation of posts about the death express themselves. Bonus points if the anti-griefers aren't dicks about it, but they aren't required to not be either.

Other than that, it's cool you have the ability to empathize with people. It's practically a superpower these days (no joke).

It depends on where people express their grief. Entries on a personal blog? That's expected. Comments in a news article about it? That makes sense. Comments in a general public forum, like we had here on several occasions? Expect people to get fed up and say so.

tl;dr you can come to f!s to cry about it and there's no reason why other people here can't tell you they're sick of people doing it.
