Ok, one thing about his death that pissed me off, is how many on the right minimized or vilified him because of his history of empathy and social liberalism. 

He suffered from a degenerative disease. He took his own life because he simply couldn't deal with it anymore.

I was extremely pissed at how many on the right talked about him after his death.

Thank you.

Not a surprise at all.

Maybe I am stretching it, but if we are going to go back that far, lets go back further with Abbott & Costello.

What part of ‘The Robin Williams Remembrance Memorial Thread’ can’t you understand?

Cant resist pointing out that the movie "Rush Hour 2" with Jacky Chan and Chris Tucker paid homage to this motif. All be it much shorter. But still the comedic principle of playing off of misunderstanding.

I honestly think Robin if still alive would love people talking about comedy in general. Pretty darned sure he had his own influences too.

For the FINAL TIME - This is a thread about Robin Williams. It is not about Abbot, Costello, Jackie Chan, Chris Tucker, or Herbie The Love Bug. If you persist in posting things not related to Williams, I'm going to start - the very least - deleting your posts.

Govern yourself accordingly.
