What are you folks gonna talk about then??
\"omg i spend half my own life grieving for others then whadaya know? Im suddenly 65 myself! Shit!! IM gonna die soon but nobody is gonna remember me?\"
Get a fucking grip of your own lives please people? You only got one life (allegedly)
Hey now, to each their own. Would you feel a loss if your favorite mini sculptor passed? Or someone who actually through their life managed to bring about happiness, be it slight or not, to your life without actually meeting and targeting you specifically?
I could give a flying about MJ. I\'d moonwalk on his grave if I could figure out how to do that shit. Ed McMahon.... he lied to me every reader\'s digest sweepstakes so we\'ve got nothing to talk about. Farah? The only Farah I knew was the batshit crazy one that was stoned on Letterman and painted pictures by rolling around in naked paint on a canvas (I think that was her).
But this dude worked. He was never supposed to get famous, he just went in and did a job where he could\'ve just read the cue cards. Instead he busted out the skills to a level that would have buried the needle on any \"enthusiasm-oter\" for 1100 miles. I loved this guy!
This was a working man who had a job to do and did it so well that he is now being discussed on a mini painting board by people from around the planet.
But wait.... there\'s more! At the low, low age of 50 a man who made me chuckle has left the stage to go to the infomercial studio in the sky. I hope he\'s waiting by the phones in heaven with new and improved special offers ONLY SEEN ON TV when I make it his way to shake his hand.
So for me grieving would be a massive overstatement. I am going to miss seeing his mug hawking new and improved wares when I turn on the TV in the wee hours of the night though.
RIP stranger, you had at least one Canadian fan!
