Oh come off it. This is just like Princess Diana's death. Everyone cried, but the fact is, it happens all the time. Did you know a child dies every 8 seconds? Well donate some cash to 'Save The Children' and get over it. What Tiltawhirl's saying is perfectly logical. If you were upset over every death, you'd be in constand mourning.

That's quite petty of you actually. People die all the time, and yes, it's tragic, but to inflict that pain on others by stupid things like 'Ban this advert' or 'Change the name of the two towers'.
Everyone have problems - you've just got to get on with life and not let it get to you. Banning that advert was just pathetic really.

There was nothing wrong with the advert.
It shows a person growing up and dying.
So what?
It happens every day.
Of course it happened fast. Unless they wanted the advert to last for 80 years then theres bound to be an increase in speed.
If you get upset watching stuff like that then you may as well sell your TV because theres worse stuff on cartoons.
Shall I get Tom and Jerry banned because I dont like cruelty to cats?

So basically you're now saying it's politically uncorrect to say to someone that life's too short.
A death of a baby is a tragic thing there's no doubt about it, but I really can't see there's anything wrong with slogan or the advert.
It's like the whole Hitman 2 racism malarky. It's just insane, you can't do anything these days without someone getting offended.
Anyway I don't want to continue this conversation, I can tell that my opinions are just gonna end up offending someone.

Thats quite ignorant of you actually, you obviously have never experienced the death of a very young child in your family. So shut the f*&% up.

Surely the slogan "Life's a game" would upset people who have no life?
E.g the people that took the time to write in and complain about a 30 second advert.

Surely the slogan "Life's a game" would upset people who have no life?
E.g the people that took the time to write in and complain about a 30 second advert.
