I'm sure I've heard rumours in the past, but they were a long while ago, and weren't from anywhere credible.
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

TV, movies, web media--this thread is the home for any Joss projects that don't already have their own threads, such as Dr. Horrible.

I... don't think it's any of our business, actually.

You may be above gossip, but I am not.
Feel free to avert your eyes.

Dude, I get to say I'm uncomfortable about it.
And I don't see "gossiping about Joss' personal life" in the slug up top. I'd be less squicked if it were in Natter, where celebrity gossip isn't off-topic.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I'm with Consuela. I know Joss hasn't posted here in a very long time, but it still makes me uncomfortable.

Indeed. But that's not what you said. You said it is "not our business." I prefer to determine my own business despite your reproval.
There was nothing in my comment that disallowed your comment.
You, however, came into a discussion and tried to shut it down with equivalent of "tut tut."
Obviously the people having the discussion were comfortable discussing celebrity gossip about a multimillionaire who exploits social media to market his work as readily as he breathes.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Anyway, that's kind of heavy for any discussion before 8am.
Basically I didn't appreciate the threadnannying. Nothing more or less.
Not a big deal.

I agree with Consuela. I think that a marriage is only the business of the people in it. The fact that a person is famous doesn't make me their friend, or a part of their lives.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine.
It's a bigger breach of board culture, I think, to come in and squelch a conversation because you don't like it.
Obviously the people that were talking about it did not have that qualm.

Oh, please. We've always argued about what's appropriate to talk about where. And at the risk of being accused again of being a killjoy threadnanny, this is not a celebrity gossip thread.
God forbid I someday become rich and famous, because by your logic, I should then expect everyone who knows me to violate all my privacy, because it's no more than I deserve for becoming rich and famous. Frankly, I think it's pretty skeevy to not only want to talk about the personal details of someone's failed marriage, but to ask people who know them to share those details in public.
