Whitney

Yeah the first time was in 2009 after the German goalie Robert Enke had committed suicide. That one hit me mostly because of his wife. She made a very emotional public statement right after.

Second time, also 2009 a month after the first, was Brittany Murphy. Just came out of nowhere and she was still so young.

Then again in 2021 when Sean Lock passed. Still not fully over it if I'm being honest. That man is irreplaceable.

Edit: I forgor but just remembered another one. Carrie Fisher in 2016. Idk why her in parcicular but it was untimely and I always liked her.

Robin Williams, Norm Macdonald, and if David Attenborough ever dies, that's pretty much all the light gone out of my life.

The two that come to mind are George Harrison and Tom Magliozzi.

So I started to listen to the Beatles in the 2010s without really knowing anything about them. After I was through most of their discography I read that Lennon was assassinated, and my heart sank.

Yer blues is my go-to song when I'm really down

I did when Mac Miller ODed, actually. Another friend of mine had also ODed somewhat recently and I was a huge fan of Mac's music.

I'm not even really sure why but for some reason, Alan Rickman hit me pretty hard.

No I haven’t

Kevin Conroy died in 2022. I'm not over it.

I didn't cry, but was pretty sad when Mitch Hedberg passed. And earlier, when I learned my childhood fave Harry Chaplin had been gone for a few years.
