R.I.P.
I really wish fools would stop overdosing on drugs. Come on, people. Just say no. OK, who am I kidding. Just say “maybe not right now.” Or how about just saying “not that much.”
Upon hearing the news that Corey Haim died, I immediately started searching Internetland for pictures of him from his Tiger Beat days. You young’uns probably don’t even remember Tiger Beat, but trust me. Corey Haim was all the rage back then:
Lucas is still an awesome movie. Don't even trip.
So was Corey Feldman, even though he really was never that hot. But he seemed cool. Like he could teach you how to smoke cigarettes:
Teddy Duchamp inhales.
Put the two together? Well hot damn. It was magic:
Oh give me a break, whippersnappers. It was the 80s. Twilight ain't got nothing on The Lost Boys. Those Lost Boys vampires would fuck you up.
Then, of course, I stumbled upon some pictures of River Phoenix, and it gave me a case of the sads.
::drool:: I mean, seriously. ::DROOL::
Le sigh.
Expectedly, people are being assholes on Twitter. “Shoulda been Wil Wheaton,” and such. You know. Dickish.
I’ve been following Wil Wheaton for a while. He seems super normal. So far he hasn’t said anything about the Corey Haim’s death on Twitter. Hopefully he won’t. I’m all for 140 character messages, but tweeting about how broken up you are about a celebrity’s death is tacky. Sorry, y’all. It just is.
And when you’re Tila Tequila, well… let’s just say, tacky twittering is de rigueur.
Read what celebs are saying about Corey Haim on Twitter here. Gag me.
Listen up: If I die unexpectedly, y’all better not be all “LOL, STM was awesum. RIP.” If you do, I swear to Cruise I will haunt your dreams. And not in a good way.
What do y’all think about mourning and tweeting? Is it tacky? Is it appropriate? Is it no big deal?
Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.
1) Being a “child star” is a death blow to someone’s future. Be it drug abuse, death, jail, whatever how many have actually turned out normal? And nobody better say Dakota Fanning because that junior broad is weird as all hell.
2) I like/follow Wil Weaton.
3) I wish Tila Tequila would overdose and die. Nobody will be mourning her loss.
Who in hell is Will Wheaton?
He’s an actor! He played Gordie in ‘Stand by Me’
Wil Wheaton was also on Star Trek the Next Generation for years. He played Wesley. At least I think that was his character’s name. I remember he played the son of the doctor on the ship. Anyways, that’s my geeky contribution of the day.
