Well, I really hate to have to report this, but he's dead.

I could tell the infamous Neil Hamburger joke, but I won't. Bummer.

Oh god damn it. I was hoping that it was a hoax. Guess not.

My first thought was death by heart attack or something, due to his history of heavy drug use, but the depression and suicide thing kinda took me by surprise (even though it really shouldn't have).

There's so much I want to say, but nothing will do justice.

I totally forgot he was an Eva fan, too. Not even a joke, he actually was, apparently.

Yeah, that scene was his idea.

Rumor has it, he auditioned for Gendou in Rebuild.

Pretty fucked up, somebody should've helped him battle through that depression.

Oh my gosh...just....I got no words.

RIP Mr. Williams...

Just watched an episode of Happy Days with him in it, hard to believe he's gone.

It's sad to hear that he was suffering with depression and that he ended up taking his life despite bringing smiles and laughter to millions of people around the world.

"Oh, captain, my captain."

Coming home to this news wasn't the best way to have the day end. I had no idea he had depression and it's tragic in the end that it helped lead him to ending his own life.

Even worse is that Dane Cook commented on this, which reminded me that Dane Cook is still alive.

Its absolutely heartbreaking to read about this. I was in class when it happened and I couldn't pay attention today because I kept trying to check up on the news in hopes it was just a prank. My condolences to his family and close friends. He will be missed.

Just... why?

"Genie, you're free." Fond memories will never be forgotten even if the one who made them is in a better place now.

Seriously.

I do hope he was able to finish Ms. Doubtfire 2. Couldn't believe it when my friend told me. Rest in peace Mr. Williams. At least you won't have to witness the next world war. T_T

>he will never see 4.44

Anyway,



That about wrecked me with how true it is.

It's rough. Lots of childhood memories.

I can still for whatever reason remember one of his skits from his stand up, we didn't have HBO anymore but were in a hotel for some trip... I can't even remember what trip, but one of his stand up shows was on. I had never really seen stand up comedy before that, but watched because I was familiar with all his now classic movie roles. He was talking about cats, and how they piss everywhere, and held a water bottle at his crotch and was just flinging water all over the stage with it. I thought it was goddamn hilarious.

The fact that I have that as a childhood memory says something about the guy and the affect he had on people. He'll be missed for sure.

He hung himself.

Hands down best childhood movie ever made for me with him was Hook.

Does suck though who would have known he went out like this.

It's hard to help someone with Depression especially if you dont know if they are really depressed. it comes it goes and can be treated but certian things can trigger this depression. Crazy how the Human psyche works and interesting in some ways too.

Poor guy. Shame he had to leave so early. Hope he rests in peace

Really sad news, tv station here aired Mrs Doubtfire last night as a tribute to him. Not one of my favs of his, but is one of his memorable characters

Here's some of his best material:

1. “If it’s the Psychic Network, why do they need a phone number?”

2. “The Second Amendment: It says you have the right to bear arms, or the right to arm bears, whatever the hell you want to do!”

3. “We had gay burglars the other night. They broke in and rearranged the furniture.”

4. “Oy! Ten thousand years in a tin can will give you such a crick in the neck!” — as Genie in Aladdin (1992)

5. “Freud: If it’s not one thing, it’s your mother.” — as Tim Dobbs in Man of the Year (2006)

6. “I had sex with a prostitute when I was 21. I was so bad, she gave me a refund.”

7. “I will be there as soon as I can! You have to give me a more specific location, you are a big country. You are the kindest country in the world. You are like a really nice apartment over a meth lab.” — Reddit AMA response to a fan asking if he’d come to Canada to hug them.

8. “If women ran the world we wouldn’t have wars, just intense negotiations every 28 days.”

9. “Cricket is basically baseball on Valium.”

10. “They said that marijuana was a ‘performance-enhancing drug.’ Marijuana enhances many things — colours, tastes, sensations, but you are certainly not f**king empowered. When you’re stoned, you’re lucky if you can find your own goddamn feet. The only way it’s a performance-enhancing drug is if there’s a big f**king Hershey bar at the end of the run.”

11. “The other people that came out against gay marriage were the Mormons ... They used to perfect polygamy. A Mormon giving marital advice is like the Octomom running a Planned Parenthood clinic.”

12. “You know the difference between a tornado and divorce in the South? Nothing! Someone’s losing a trailer, number one.”

13. “Inside of you, there’s a fashion model just waiting to throw up.” — As Fender in Robots (2005)

14. “My first day as a woman and I’m getting hot flashes.” — as Mrs. Doubtfire (1993)

15. “The definition of pornography is quite simple. Erotic is using a feather, pornography is using the entire chicken.”

16. “Do you think God gets stoned? I think so — look at the platypus.”

17. “I think God made babies cute so we don’t eat them.”

18. “Politicians are a lot like diapers. They should be changed frequently — and for the same reasons.” — as Tim Dobbs in Man of the Year (2006)

19. “Cocaine is God’s way of saying that you’re making too much money.”

20. ”Some people say Jesus wasn’t Jewish. Of course he was Jewish! Thirty years old, single, lives with his parents, come on! He works in his father’s business, his mum thought he was God’s gift — he’s Jewish! Give it up!”

21. “Being a functioning alcoholic is kind of like being a paraplegic lap dancer — you can do it, just not as well as the others, really.”

22. “It’s more inbred than an Appalachian encounter group.” — on Los Angeles

23. “Beer commercials usually show big men, manly men, doing manly things: ‘You’ve just killed a small animal. It’s time for a light beer.’ Why not have a realistic beer commercial, with a realistic thing about beer, where someone goes, ‘It’s 5 o’clock in the morning. You’ve just pissed on a dumpster. It’s Miller time.’”

24. “I wonder what chairs think about all day. ‘Oh, here comes another a**hole.’ ”

25. “Never pick a fight with an ugly person, they’ve got nothing to lose.”

26. “I went to rehab [for alcoholism] in wine country, just to keep my options open.”

28. “I thought lacrosse was what you find in la church.”

29. “It’s not bad enough that they make porn movies, they make porn movies of my movies. They made Good Will Humping. It’s okay. Wet Dreams May C**, all right. Snatch Adams? That was scary. A clown with a strap-on. F**k off! You know, Popeye, I would watch.”

30. “If you can remember the ’60s, you weren’t there.”

31. “See, the problem is that God gives men a brain and a penis, and only enough blood to run one at a time.”

32. “Ah, yes, divorce … from the Latin word meaning to rip out a man’s genitals through his wallet.”

33. “And if we bury you a** up, I have got a place to park my bike.” — as Patch Adams

34. “A woman would never make a nuclear bomb. They would never make a weapon that kills. They’d make a weapon that makes you feel bad for a while.”

35. “You could talk about same-sex marriage, but people who have been married say, ‘It’s the same sex all the time.’ ”

36. “You know, you get that tattoo of barbed wire when you’re 18, but by the time you’re 80, it’s a picket fence.”

37. “You do an eclectic celebration of the dance! You do Fosse, Fosse, Fosse! You do Martha Graham, Martha Graham, Martha Graham! Or Twyla, Twyla, Twyla! Or Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd! Or Madonna, Madonna, Madonna! … But you keep it all inside.” — as Armand in The Birdcage

38. “Why do they call it rush hour when nothing moves?”

39. “Ballets: men wearing pants so tight you can tell what religion they are.”

40. “Look! The moon, like a testicle, hangs low in the sky.”
