Steve Martins tweet

[CCFCPhil]

Can someone please move this thread to the chiropody forum.

I like that forum, everyone toes the line.

You hit the nail on the head. Too corny for this forum and the poster should be brought to heel

So Steve Martain has had a " backlash " with his tweet about Carrie

“When I was a young man, Carrie Fisher was the most beautiful creature I had ever seen, She turned out to be witty and bright as well.”

I guess the Lefties, LGBT's and a.n.other faux Outrage lot were the main cause of the " backlash "

I have just read a tweet saying it " objectified her "

when will it end ? ? ? will we ever get back to being able to say anything without offending someone somewhere ? ? ?

So apparently there's a wrong way to mourn people now? I think it's horrible that people would make him feel bad and call him sexist for tweeting a heartfelt message about the death of his friend, the soft play generation have lost the plot.

had this off and on, painful first thing and funnily enough when you lift the foot up goes away eventually

I once bought a pair of inferior quality golf shoe because they had a welsh dragon on the heel, and had pain in my heels all season. I found rolling a ball under my foot helped, then switched back to foot joys and never had a problem after that.

This is where the outrage began,good to see most comments calling them out on it.

As we now live in an age where most peoples lives (and deaths) are played out over social media, there is always bound to be someone who is upset by something someone has said.
And then someone who is upset because that person got upset about it.
And then someone upset at the person getting upset over someone being upset at someone being upset.

It's all a bit upsetting TBH.

Is that what I think it is?

I'm as far left as it is possible to get and thought Martin's comments were perfectly acceptable
