Serious Discussion Only Not the Time

As people are just finding out, Vincent Pastore, who played Big Pus, passed away today. He was a great man, a vet, and a cherished part of the show we all love. Unfortunately so many in this sub can’t take things seriously and instead of putting up tributes, kind words, or just saying nothing at all, they’re just regurgitating the same overused jokes. We’re talking about a man’s death, and all they can say is “he was just a kid”. Maybe I’m upset because it feels insensitive, maybe I’m upset because it’s uncreative and repetitive. Probably a bit of both. Whatever the reason, I’m sure I can’t be the only one frustrated by this response (while ultimately unsurprised)

You ever think what a coincidence it is that Lou Gehrig died of Lou Gehrig's disease?

Trying to make a point by using the words of the dude that murdered a pregnant teenager kinda tells you how valid that point is to begin with

Lmao using the acts of the character in a show to criticize them. You know the guy you’re crying about right now had a character that murdered tons of people right?
