You really can't act shocked at an old person dying

I saw some posts making the rounds on social media that because of all the celebrity deaths in 2016, someone should go and "protect" Betty White....as if that would even help.

Betty White is 94 years old.
I'm not wishing death on her. She seems like a sweet lady and all. But she's 94.
If she goes tomorrow, really...how is that not expected? Same thing with Stan Lee.

Kinda the same with Debbie Reynolds who was 84.
Alan Thicke was 69.
David Bowie was 69.

The shockers are the ones who die in their 50s or earlier.
Michael was 50.
Prince was 57.
Bernie Mac was 50.

I just think people need to get a grip and realize that death is a part of life.

I don't think people would be shocked if an old person died but just shocked they died in general. Yeah sure it's a part of life, but you'd still be like oh damn that's crazy, I was just watching one of his movies last week or i saw her on tv a few days ago. I don't know about protecting anyone from death but you'll still get that shocking reaction especially with Stan Lee and all he's done for the comic world. From making drawings to a multi billion dollar movie empire.

preciate it. This thread still dumb as hell tho bra :yeshrug:
I'm not sure you made the connection between your screen name and the sentiment in the OP.
There's more in common there than you might think.

A bunch of old cacs dying. :russ::heh: My 2016 has not been meddled by these people at all.




Nobody actually gives a fukk. It's just celebrity gossip to fuel their mundane lives.

Also this.

These deaths really magnify the obsessive stranglehold celebrity culture has on our country and our collective psyche and our intersection of interpersonal dialogue.
