Bob Saget of Full House has passed.
Damn. Only 65? That's relatively young all things considered. R.I.P Bob.

Shit, what is it with this month? This one came out of nowhere, and he was evidently in decent health, tweeting about his next show. Must have been a heart attack, or something sudden like that.

He was a big part of my childhood, between Full House and America's Funniest Home Videos. It's hard to believe he's gone.

R.I.P. to the incomparable Ronnie Spector...

Missed this one by over a week, and I'm surprised and disappointed it wasn't a bigger story, but we lost Dwayne Hickman back on the 9th.

Just saw that! In the background of somebody else's YouTube video no less. Wow! That's too bad.

Just found out about this; there's an article talking about how he fell into helping Fincher edit Fight Club just because he decided to sit in with him

Damn, that really sucks. The dude's gone through a lot of shit in his life. Rest in peace.
My most wanted fight ever is Discord vs Bobobo-bo bo-bobo.
Godzilla has a regen like Wolverine, a skin like Luke Cage, a hero aura like Captain America, a strength like Hulk, an unstoppability like Juggernaut, an immortality like Deadpool.

There's a 'God' in Godzilla for a reason...

Wow, finding out about his passing was a real gut punch. I grew up on a good portion of Peanuts, especially that classic Christmas special. He will be missed.

Danish author and musician Flemming Quist Møller, arguably best known for creating the cartoon character Jungledyret Hugo, has passed away. The first two Hugo movies are among my favorites, so for me this was very sad to hear.

R.I.P. Mr. Møller :'(

Douglas Trumbull will be missed. His work on special effects is legendary.
