44. Hmm.
Stuck your foot in your mouth yesterday, trying to say it tastes good today.

"The guy's as nutty as Michael Jackson"

Horsehit. Michael Jackson's mentally ill. Steve Irwin worked with animals, may have looked crazy to people who don't like animals.

"dangle their children at dangerous areas"

Horseshit. Irwin's kid was never in any danger.

"He goes out claiming to be pro-environment, but loves to touch crocodiles and ride big marine animals, who if they could speak English, would doubtlessly protest being poked and prodded."

Aside from apparently being suckered by the photoshop of Irwin riding a whale, are you telling me you've never gone out into the wild and picked up a frog or a snake or a bug in order to exam it? If you have, then you'd be a hypocrite. If you haven't, then shame on you for not going outside and learning.

"(And does he have a string of failed marriages too?) "

I don't know. Does he have a reputation for sticking his nose in other people's business?

"He dissed Kerry and supported Bush."

Well holee shit. An Australian guy from Australia said something about American politics. La dee fucking da. Hmm, I wonder what Charo's opinion on a flat tax is. Gosh!

"Indeed, the stingray obviously had had enough..."

Ordinarily the sting ray would have stung him. In a freak accident, the stinger hit his heart, which is what killed him. That's like saying trees were out to get Sonny Bono.

"Steve's another hollywood-wannabe phony."

Actually, no. He was the real deal. A talented guy who worked with animals, whom somebody had the bright idea to give a show. And it was a hit because he was genuinely entertaining and likeable.

Now, back to you. You started some shit yesterday about how we're not supposed to feel sorry for his family because he's rich. Never mind that he made himself rich with his own talent. Nevermind you've got this odd fixation with money, as if money is supposed to make up to the family for their loss. You've been rightfully criticized for your crap and now you're trying to defend the indefensible. Here's an idea, you could admit you were wrong. Or you can just shutup.
