To me it's too much like "I want to share my grief with the entire world!"
I think it's unquestionably sharing -- but sharing that, in Brenda's example, is people reaching out to each other in shock and grief -- over someone they didn't even know.
What's wrong with sharing grief? When did that become bad?
the guy who was mown down in a cruel Segway accident.
Yes, but the cruelty of this scenario is mitigated somewhat by its comical factor.

DX, something came up in LJ land that Theodosia and I might need your help with.

Sharing grief isn't bad. Forcing it upon people who don't care for years and years after the event itself is going a bit to far for me.
OK, halfway through the show, this week's TAL is a Buffista smorgasbord: Romance Writers, and transmen. What's next? slashfic?
Alibelle,
I am on my way out now, and I need to stop and get cash, so it will be closer to 9:15.
Also, the "lord" loves you.
I always see those highway memorials as a way of saying "Be careful -- people love you and would be very sad it you died in a needless traffic accident"
And since people in Kansas City drive like idiots on parade, it doesn't bother me.
