This is my first celeb death that is surreal and weird and just generally feels wrong like this person should always exist in the background. I really hope that his story brings some lessons and guidance for others. And i hope that those who knew and loved Matthew find a soothing peace in the coming days and months.
Really? I'm completely unsurprised he drowned in a hot tub. I figured that or overdose. He's been a mess for a while.
Ring-a-ding-ding, baby, what a way to go.
Shut the fuck up Benny, if ya keep yapping ill crucify you.
You would if you could, spartacus. It'll be a special someone who takes me out.
Ive got an angry mailman and a loose set of morals dont tempt me.
Yeah?! Well, I'm gonna go see what Caesar thinks!
Release the mailman.
What do you mean we're out of mailmen?!
Fuck it release the mailwoman, worst case scenario she gives him death by snu-snu.
I can't remember if you can kill him with confirmed bachelor, but I take all bets.
Really? Not Alan Rickman, Bob Saget, David Bowie, or Robin Williams?
Steve Irwin
Anthony Bourdain.
This one still hurts.
They were sad and deep losses to the industry. I still can't bring myself to watch a a Robin Williams film.
But for whatever reason none of them had given me this sort of what feeling. That's all.
Anthony Bourdain for me
Have you read kitchen confidential yet? I had bought the book years before he passed but never got around to read it. And then he died and I couldn't bring myself to read it, until earlier this year. I am so absolutely glad I have that book, it's like hanging out with him.
they're big names but this guy feels like your neighbor down the street
One could even say a friend
Kids probably 22 and doesn't know those names
Tell me you are in your 30s, without telling me you are in your 30s
Robin Williams, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Bourdain, Chris Cornell...Amy Winehouse...
RIP too, but at least for me, any of them where so present.
Could they be any more in their 30s?
My back hurts but I can still bend my knees
same bro/sis/non binary relative slang word, same
Sib is what you're looking for
I'm doing my best to be unhealthy so I die before Weird Al. I won't be able to handle it.
That's like your favorite uncle dyingv
