| well RIP bro |
| First of all, stop saying "again". Each day, tons of people die. Second of all, we get these related news because news posters get their news with keywords. So if you've been reading news with "death" "anime" or something like that, the computer will search for related news. And my last point is: a lot of you didn't even know the guy. Now, I'm not saying you should act really cold and laugh with it, but at least if you respect the guy, stop pretending you're really sad while you're not. I bet a lot of you forget about him tomorrow. |
