Who?

[mids]

Liam Payne.

[Repat Van]

That’s so sad.

[mids]

I've never heard of him although I have heard of One Direction and Harry Styles. Seems quite young.

[Repat Van]

Looking at the stuff online maybe not so sad.

But sad for the family nonetheless.

[perrykneeham]

I think I know why he topped himself now:

"LIAM Payne's girlfriend Kate Cassidy revealed why she left him in Argentina just days before his tragic death.

After two weeks away, American Kate was more than ready to leave and decided to head home.

She explained on TikTok: "Honestly, love South America but I hate staying in one place for too long. And we were supposed to be there for, like, five days, turned into two weeks.

"I was just like, ‘I need to go home.’"

Ahead of her flight to Florida, Kate said she broke out in a "weird rash" due to her "anxiety" around flying."

She sounds like very hard work. Puts me in mind of that quote about "no matter how beautiful and desirable that woman is, somebody, somewhere, is sick of her shite".

"the fall was from a height of approximately 13 to 14 metres (43 to 46 ft) and that Payne sustained "very serious injuries incompatible with life", leaving "no possibility of resuscitation"."

Ewwww.

[mids]

Seems he was a bit of a piss-head too.

[moggyonspeed]

Reports of an "aggressive man who may have been under the effects of drugs and alcohol".

I'm sure we've been here before.

The human in me says yes, it is a sad day for his loved ones; the scientist in me says that this may (may only) be worthy of a Darwin Award.

[perrykneeham]

Do you often have a scientist in you?

[moggyonspeed]

Ha-bloody-ha.

Anyway, I've just won a fiver from someone who said some bright spark would say that. And another fiver 'cos it's you! Draw comfort from the fact I've called you a bright spark.

“ Like a compass needle that points north, a man's accusing finger always finds a woman. Always”.

“ Did Lawsuit Push Liam Payne Over the Edge? Singer's Ex, Maya Henry, Accused Him of 'Doing Weird Sh*t' and 'Preying on His Fans'”

“ The Legal Battle: Maya Henry's Accusations

Maya Henry, who was engaged to Payne before their relationship ended in 2022, had recently taken legal action against the singer. According to DailyMail.com, Henry had instructed her lawyers to issue a cease-and-desist letter to Payne, accusing him of obsessive and harassing behaviour. She claimed that Payne had been contacting her from different phone numbers, creating new iCloud accounts, and even reaching out to her friends and family, including her mother, Azteca Henry.”

So it's her fault? She more or less killed him? Also, "Azteca".

Ah, the unreliable simile.  Compass needles only point to magnetic north, which is rarely the same as true north and, like opinion, depends very much on standpoint.
