I'm just glad to be back to share a bit. As for Zelda? People are heartless..I'll leave it there, and hope she's trained enough to deal with the public..not that THIS could be easy.

Yup. Anyway the Real Patch Adams paid tribute to Robin Williams despite his opinion about the movie.
The terrible news of the passing of Robin Williams reached me here in the Peruvian Amazon late last night with tremendous sadness. Surrounded by over 100 friends and clowns on our annual clown trip here we mourn this tragic loss and continue to treasure his comic genius.

I'm enormously grateful for his wonderful performance of my early life which has allowed Gesundheit to continue and expand our work. We extend our blessings to his family and friends in this moment of sadness.

Thank you for all you've given this world Robin, thank you my friend. — con Robin Williams.

bubblingbong on tumblr shared this, don't know if it his own creation. But it's some wonderful fanart and tribute so I thought I'd share it here as well. :)

For the record, the artist of this picture is Dave Alvarez. Here's the original source, and everyone make sure to post the unedited picture from now on or link to the source. The version with the cropped signature is getting passed on several sites and that should not be.
 
After seeing that video of him meeting Koko the gorilla, I notice that's probably the only time I've seen him not being ON. He was defined by that in his public appearances, gotta make jokes and act manic! But that was pretty sublime. It was pretty awesome to watch.
 
Saw on my facebook feed something about Westboro planning on protesting his funeral. I guess we shouldn't be surprised, but if they show up, hopefully they aren't allowed anywhere near the site.
 
Watched Hook with the kids yesterday. Rough movie to get through without tearing up, at least for me. Surprised this movie was panned by critics. Never would have known. That food fight scene is one of my favorite movie scenes of all time. Still so bummed over this.

If you're interested in seeing more of the subdued side of Williams you should really listen to the interview from 2010 Marc Maron had with him. It offers a very unique look into his psyche.

That Koko video is really fascinating and heartwarming though. If anyone hasn't seen it yet you really should

Well, damn. Near the end he talks about how having heart surgery and coming back from his alcoholism made him feel like he had a new lease on life and learned to appreciate it more. He even does a funny, but now bittersweet, bit about how he was able to talk himself out of suicidal thoughts when he relapsed.

Fuck.

If there isn't a huge blockade of people there dressed like Robin Williams characters and singing Aladdin songs, I'll be disappointed.
 
Those two spineless, lower than shit people on twitter pissed me off to no end. I wish i could just extend my arms through the screen and snap their necks. What kind of Human Being would say those things? Animals are better, fuck, Trash is better then those two pieces of dog shit.


To hell with Westboro Baptist Church as well.

/b/ is tracking the perps down right now.
 
Fuck the assholes spitting venom. I just hope that Zelda and her family can take some solace in all the support and tributes that have poured out since Robin's passing.
 
Wow, these internet tough guys who hide behind their keyboards are vile POS. Zelda Williams should stay away from social media, there's just too many heartless pricks who try to get a rise out of these situations. Very sad...

You guys are letting rage take over you. Let the police handle that stuff, private justice is never the solution.

That kind of people deserves to be punched in the face.
 
Just watched World's Greatest Dad. Man how weird was to see his character talking about suicide and stuff.

I guess someone his age who's smart like he was probably knew a lot about the subject and the psychology involved anyway, even without having made such a movie. Depression is just a blinding bitch.

Anyway, the movie was sucking a bit but then had a remarkable ending. Loved it.

Terry Gilliam gave what I feel is the perfect eulogy for Robin:

"Robin Williams, the most astonishingly funny, brilliant, profound and silly miracle of mind and spirit, has left the planet.
He was a giant heart, a fireball friend, a wondrous gift from the gods. Now the selfish bastards have taken him back. Fuck 'em!"

(from his facebook page)
 
I know that the first rule of the Internet is to not read the comments, but the amount of religious nuts condemning him because of the suicide or "that he didn't have God in his heart" are getting to my nerves.
 
Between Rik Mayall and now Robin Williams sad times :( two of my favorite actors and people on the planet. My heart goes out to his family, truly.

Those twitter comments... my god.

No you are not. I'd do the same damn thing if I were him. Some people don't deserve to be saved from a fire. Westboro assholes are a perfect example.

Sometimes it doesn't hurt to double-check.

But yeah if they do attempt to protest Williams funeral that will be a good way to re-ignite my hatred for them.
