farewell tara palmer-tomkinson

Yeah, cos posh people don't have proper drug problems they just 'choose to get mullered'. Silly bollocks, especially coming from you who says he's lost friends to coke.

She wasn't born with a drug problem. She chose to get mullered until she developed an addiction.

I really don't care about a god-child of prince Charles dropping dead though. Fuck the lot of 'em.
 
More or less this - Of her sort/class etc she didn't seem the worst and she didn't seem to benefit from her privilege in the same way that some of her contemporaries did.
Funnily enough she was most likely aware of urban75 because for a while this site was the number result in Google and other search engines for her!
 
I dunno, was she ever caught with it?

This place is rife with cokeheads, you reckon they've all been nicked for possession?

Doubt she was ever caught, having diplomatic protection officers with you often dissuades normal plod from doing stop and search...

And that Rausing cunt, how much time did that hyper-rich fucker get? Similar to others in his situation?
 
Seriously you can't work out how the life of privilege and wealth she had allowed her to avoid many of the most serious problems other addicts face?
Now that doesn't follow from what I asked you does it? I'm trying to figure out which consequences she's avoided that make her a reasonable target for hatred, despite the fact that the she may have suffered the biggest consequence of all as a result of her addictions.

You have to be seriously rich to afford a hundreds of quid a week habit and not end up homeless and or doing crime to get the funds. Then she got the best help etc of course it makes a massive difference. I was just objecting to bs dismissing it as 'she chose to get mullered' which you would not say of most people with substance abuse issues, I hope.
 
Couldn't stand her, really really really couldn't.

At the point she was famous for simply existing I was a teenager and she represented absolutely nothing about my life, there was nothing we had in common at all.

Sorry she's dead like but I don't think she ever really redeemed herself to me.

Yes it does.
Really, you don't think the huge amounts of money she had access to protected from the worst consequences of her addiction.I'm sorry but that's bollocks.
In what way?

I wouldn't know I've not made any such argument.

Well you suggested that the money had protected her from the worst consequences of her addiction. If the speculation that her death was related to it is correct, that's not true is it?

Do you resent her then? Think her vacuous or 'no loss'?

Maybe the immediate physical consequences, yes but it didn't do much to protect her from a long and publicly evidenced psychological decline. Money/privilege/family-status or not, she's been a pretty sad and rather obviously unwell figure for a lot longer than she was ever "It"
 
Totally fancied the arse off her in the 90s, in a totally unobtainable and against everything I stand for but she's still lovely in a wrong kinda-way. R.I.P.

This really. As one of the first people who was famous just for being I absolutely hated everything she stood for. She got away with being an annoying, braying prick because she was a toff and so it was somehow considered "charming". It wasn't. It was an embarrassing car crash.

I am, however, sorry that the poor woman has suffered with a brain tumour and died so young. It is a tragedy.
 
I've not seen the news today so it was difficult to tell from this thread whether she has actually died or not. Assuming she has (I'll go and look in a minute)

I'm right with you on that second paragraph, but in the first one you sound like part of why you don't give a fuck is that she had an addiction. If so, that's a bit shit (of you).
