2022: A New Year, New Dead Celebrities

I saw his stand up routine once. As a little kid -- Full House had just ended, so I think I was barely 11? -- who definitely should not have been seeing his comedy routine at that age.
My best friend's mom bought tickets to this tiny little comedy club in New Jersey where he was performing. We only knew him from Full House and AFHV, so had no idea how absolutely raunchy his routine was. We were the only children there and about fifteen minutes in, her mom made us go sit out in the hallway for the rest of the night, where the bartender kept bringing us Shirley Temples until the show was over.
So I sort of saw his stand up routine and most of my memories of the evening center around finally learning what "the C word!!" was and being left unattended in a bar. Lil' bit of a tone shift from Danny Tanner.

@aria Yeah, my roommate had NO IDEA he was a rauchy MFer when he wasn't Danny Tanner.

"His best friend" is such a weird way for an article to repeatedly describe a murder victim. Come on, People.

Pour one out for the Dirty Dad of Full House and AFHV fame. Bob Saget, dead at 65.
This one made me really sad. We watched AFHV as a family all the time when I was little and my parents are about his age, so it hit close to home.

[Murdering scumbag and real estate dude, Robert Durst, 78]
Best twitter comment I've seen about that:
you just knew after Betty White and Bob Saget the universe had to even things out
-
He was 78 and had cancer and a slew of other illnesses. If getting to walk away from at least three murders for over thirty years while living a ridiculously luxurious life thanks to a massive inheritance and then dying of natural causes at an age when most people die anyway, good or bad, is somehow the universe's way of balancing things, then the universe is incredibly shitty at it.

This about sums it up/.
-
Except that he died sickly from cancer and other shit.
Getting a bullet in the back of the head is far more humane.
-
Oh, I meant in general, not for that dude specifically.
The universe is a crap place, most of the time, in general, for most things.

@tnp Man, I was just listening to her on Eddie Money's "take me home tonight" earlier today, too.

@macha So was I!

I know he did a ton more like be editor of Vogue but I just remember him being an absolute a-hole to model wannabes on ANTM.
ETA: Not that this was a BAD thing, any girl who had seen even a single season of that show and still decided to go on it deserved everything they got.
