This really saddens me. It really does. I thought he was doing alright, you know. I guess the "happy" was all for show. I feel bad for his daughter too. Shit...and he was on my "persons to meet" list. So many people on that list have died that I can't even have that list anymore.
Ordinarily this would be a bad time to post a Cracked article, but this one's actually pretty much 100% serious, and entirely apropos, so you guys might want to read it. It really spoke to me as a "funny guy," and put this whole situation in context:
>In a Press Conference earlier today, Marin County investigators reported that their preliminary determination is that Robin Williams' death was suicide caused by hanging. His assistant found him fully clothed in his bedroom, slightly suspended in a seated position with a belt tied around his neck with one end wedged in a closet door. Investigators also reported finding some cuts on the inside of his left wrist, along with a nearby pocket knife; the knife is being tested to confirm that it was Williams' blood. Additionally, his body will undergo a forensic examination to confirm.
>According to the Police, Williams was last seen alive, by his wife, at 10:30p the night before. (via USA Today)
>>393073 it was, make the world laugh even though you are crying inside. And the sick bastards harassed his daughter and now she's taken herself off Social Media. Maybe people can send her some letters.

>>393123 There are some terribly broken people who will do anything for attention. And then deflect any criticism by saying it was all in good fun and you should just learn to deal with it.
