Bitchin' Tragedy

You know how there's that unspecified but enforced period of time that has to lapse before it becomes socially acceptable to laugh at a tragedy? Apparently that doesn't apply to "tiger bloods."

Or maybe it works in reverse, and like 6 months from now we'll be able to look back on all this and weep. I certainly hope so.
