OMG I'm so glad you wrote this, given the observations here. I mean.... omfg talk about timely evidence.

Once again, to combat the interpretations of clown world I'll say that we should have some degree of respect for anyone that dies - it's something that we are all going to have to face. But for f's sake you want people to emulate "sorrow" like a fifth grader without any emotional intelligence does about a random death because they don't know what else to do about it beyond acting sad.

Okay? Feigning "sadness" over every death isn't what "good people" do - it's what stunted people do. It's what psychopaths do. If you feel it you feel it, if you don't you don't. Scott Weiland's music impacted my life. I felt like $#!( when he died. Robert Orci didn't impact my life and he widely diminished franchises he touched. But it's ashame he died so young and I respect that he was part of pop culture that I know about, but no I'm not sad. OMFG.
