Sports fans saying "this puts cricket/football/tiddlywinks into perspective" after the untimely death of a player. No it doesn't, not unless you had your perspective so massively out of whack that you actually at any point thought that the sport was as important as someone's life, in which case you need to stop being all wistful and deep and recognise that you're a freaking idiot with a tenuous grasp on the realities of life.
