Did i tell you guys back a few years ago she popped up on my tinder as 15 km away? I super liked

You'd double or even triple bag it before touching her.

 

[Perth gal]

I don’t get all the Schapelle hate. Even if she was guilty and I’m not 100 % convinced, she’s done her time, I think we should all get over it.

I don't hate her and agree that she's done her time. It's not like she committed murder. However I'm not a big fan of her appearing on reality shows and profiting from her infamy.

 

[Billy ray]

Yeh no hate from me either. I was willing to date her, get snapped by paparazzi, break up and sell my story

 

[Gough]

Nobody ever put five kilo of weed in my luggage, how come she was so lucky?

No different to a wag selling candles or doing the toilet paper count in the supermarket for the little paper
Everyone's trying to cash in on their 15 minutes

Schapelle Corby would've been forgotten years ago if she was Jane Smith from some boring middle class suburb.

Rosleigh Rose, Mercedes and Schapelle. Media flocked to it like flies to shit.

Which is also shit. But at least they're not getting their 15 (which is now more like 15 years for Schappelle) by way of being a convicted drug smuggler.

 

[Off The Couch]

Which is also sh*t. But at least they're not getting their 15 (which is now more like 15 years for Schappelle) by way of being a convicted drug smuggler.

it was cannabis - let’s not make her out to be one of the Bali 9

 

[Richard Cranium]

Which only adds to not being deserving of such a big spot in Australian pop culture and the money that would have come with it.

 

[Over The Post]

She'd have gone straight through Customs if someone hadn't grassed on her.

 

[Scotland]

It was also 4kg of the stuff. Not like she got caught with a baggie in her pocket she forgot to smoke.

(not condoning drug use or war on drugs)

 

[JackOutback]

I reckon Schapelle is 100 per cent guilty and while, yes, she’s done her time, she’s still ****ing whinging and still trying to act like she’s a celebrity and not a drug mule. So while I don’t hate her, I find any screen time she receives annoying.

 

[Scotland]

So while I don’t hate her, I find any screen time she receives annoying.

This describes about 99% of people deemed newsworthy.

 

[Catfish Alley]

If someone on screen is annoying you it should be easy enough to find another option. It's not like it's the 80s with 4 channels on TV.

Reading about her in this thread is the most exposure I've had to her since her release.

I was going to say the same thing and i bet barely anyone watches whatever she is going to be on anyway.....is free tv still a thing? Its basically all rubbish on free TV

Good question. I don't even know anymore. I think a lot of channels stream free online. But over here you at least need basic cable to watch any regular television.
