Both great losses. RIP.

I guess 2016 ain't done yet. There's still 3 days left to kill a few more.

Cinnabon (chain of stores that make the BEST cinnamon rolls) tweeted something like RIP to Carrie Fisher, who has the best buns in the galaxy, with a.picture of.Princess Leia with her hair buns replaced with cinnamon rolls. Guys, TOO FUCKING SOON, and whoever thought that was a good idea should have to go 15 rounds with a Wookie.

Add another to the body count. The actor who played ALF died Sunday. http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/13/entertain ... index.html

Sorry you're upset, but I don't see what the problem is. I found it a mildly humorous and not disrespectful to Fisher, who never seemed to take herself too seriously.

National Review Online had this take on it: Linky

I think it comes down to different people handle life's issues in different ways.
...even before I read MHI, my response to seeing a poster for the stars of the latest Twilight movies was "I see 2 targets and a collaborator".
