He was a shit stain - terribly annoying while you have one and not missed at all once it fucking rots away with cancer.

Didn't Rush die of cancer? A rare cancer W!

No idea who that is, no idea why people give attention to ragebaiters

You have no idea? Might want to check that out. May have been born without a useful chunk of your brain. Just concerned about you.

I remember him pretty often unfortunately

Some bells ring in my head whenever I remember that he's dead

[–] cccrontab@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Good fucking riddance!

[–] Pika@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I didn't know he died, guess that makes sense why I stopped hearing his name all the time

Nor did I. Wikipedia says complications of lung cancer from his lifetime of smoking

I suspect the complication was inability to breathe

Dana Gould: Hey guys, I was just not remembering Rush and not remembering how influential he was and not remembering how much I hated him.

Everyone: Yeah, I don't even remember that he made millions of dollars and I'm not even remembering the exact cemetery that he was buried in. Yay, I'm glad we're all not remembering this.

While he was replaced, and he'll continue to be replaced, I still found this to be somewhat uplifting.

Now I'll go back to forgetting that shit stain ever lived.

So many have taken his place now.

It would be nice to believe this, but it's just not true. Unfortunately people do remember him fondly. It will take decades before the people who loved him are all dead and history gets to judge him.

Thats mostly because he lost his popularity when Internet poscasts started taking over, now we have a new generation of asshole podcasters like Ben Shapiro and Matt Walsh

Sound like exactly like what this person is doing, whoever they are.

But you're remembering him right now.
