Gary Coleman has died!

[Doctor What]

Well, I can't say that I watched "Different Strokes" much as a child, but I knew and loved Gary Coleman's crazy antics as of late. This is a sad day for short people everywhere.

What a shame, I never really knew much about him, but nobody really deserves to die at age 42.

 

[MelasZepheos_v1legacy]

I know this may seem like I'm focusing on the wrong thing, but why are some of the comments hoping he gets better soon? Did I miss a trick and he's actually the Messiah?

Anyway, I only really knew of Avenue Q, but that was hilarious, so I'm sorry he's gone.

 

[SimuLord]

What'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?

 

[Beltom]

Damn, Avenue Q just got a lot less funny.
R.I.P Gary Coleman, you will be missed.

 

[DividedUnity]

I thought that was people fooling around pretending hes dead when I first heard it. What a shame.

I guess we'll never know what Willis was talking about now.

 

[Goth Skunk]

Ah, I have respect for a man who is willing to appear in a postal game.

Tis sad day.

This.

This is the only time I've ever ever relly known who Gary Coleman was.

 

[SharPhoe]

R.I.P Gary Coleman, you will be missed.

Exactly what I was going to say.
And to think, that was my nickname back in high school. It feels sadder than usual now...

 

[sky14kemea]

WHAT?!? >_<

Oh come on, why are lots of celebrities dying in one go? I know lots of people die everyday but this is getting kinda suspicious now.

I liked him too >:/ darnit Death.

 

[Aura Guardian]

What a sad day it is. You will be missed.

 

[Irridium]

What'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?

That was my first reaction as well.

This is a sad day... I remember Different Strokes. It always seemed to entertain me somehow. Granted I was young and entertained by just about anything, but still.

 

[Doctor What]

OH CRAP. I completely forgot about AVE. Q.

Time for a memorial service. May he forever be in heaven with a never ending supply of Polack jokes

 

[Armored Prayer]

Damn, this makes me very sad.

RIP Gary Coleman.

 

[Nivag the Owl]

R.I.P. Gary Coleman. My only regret is that I never knew whether or not you were genuinely super short, or if that was just a world-wide writer's joke.

 

[lostzombies.com]

I thought that he had dies like 10 years ago? I even thought one simpsons episode was dedicated in him memory...wierd

 

[IWCAS]

What the hell was willis talkin bout? The world may never know
RIP Gary Coleman.

 

[Plurralbles]

42?! That's WAY too early!

edit: "intercranial hemorrhage. "


I was sad that it was soooooooo close to a stroke but nope... not a clot, a hemorhage instead... : (

so damn close to being a situationally ironic way to go.

 

[JourneyThroughHell]

I have only seen the guy in Postal... but he had a pretty awesome role there.
So, yeah, Rest In Peace, you wonderful autograph giver.

 

[SimuLord]

Obligatory:

Coleman suffered from focal segmental glomerulosclerosis which resulted in his dwarfism. He's also character checked in The Five Of Us in GTA:Vice City.

Sad day, but given his condition, a remarkably long life.
