Why is it not cool to make fun of dead people? I never understood this. I guess people are all like "Oh well he can't fight back it's not fair" but I don't really think Gary Coleman would come charging in here all mad and stuff even if his time wasn't... cut short.
edit My point is that when my horrible deeds catch up to me and I am made dead, you guys can make fun of me all you want and I won't care, on account of being dead.

I don't really see a problem with joking about it. Death is a weird thing, and laughing about it is something people do. I guess some of the jokes made in the thread are tacky. I'm almost certain all of them are from the 90s.
But man, just showing up and saying, "This person was worthless and not a loss," is pretty fucking gross.
Gary Coleman was born with a debilitating disease that caused his little person stature, but also wreaked havoc on his kidneys. He suffered greatly from his medical problems as a child, but despite this, his parents pushed him into show business and took all of his money. When he became too old to be a child star, the business and his parents shat him out into the world and said 'Good luck.'
He went on to become the butt of countless jokes up until his untimely death in his early forties (think about it. You're dead. You'll never know anything ever again), where he was still the butt of jokes. I don't know about you, but that's really depressing. I feel bad for him.

Oh wait damn, just saying I actually did not know people already mentioned Gary Oldman. I don't think Gary Coleman was 'worthless', I just genuinely didn't care about him. It's better than bringing up false emotions now that he's passed away.

Same here, poor guy never had a fair shot at life.

he only got hit with disorderly conduct
his wife is the one with the domestic violence charge
didn't they have a straight up fight?
which is kinda hilarious to think about
what kind of a bitch do you have to be to do that to Gary Coleman
What'chu talkin' 'bout, Vargas.
yeah, that's what I thought
She probably had her hand on his forehead and couldn't land any hits thats why it was only disorderly conduct.

The last time I watched pro wrestling, Sgt. Slaughter fought Big Foot. A G.I. Joe character fought a truck. That is how long it's been.
So you're right. I don't know much about it. Commenting on how it perpetuates its own homoerotic cliches is a cheap shot.
But I'm never going to go in the wrestling thread and say, "Oh, I heard some campy actor on steroids was maimed or killed. No loss there."
I don't really see a problem with joking about it. Death is a weird thing, and laughing about it is something people do. I guess some of the jokes made in the thread are tacky. I'm almost certain all of them are from the 90s.

i mean 'oh hey this person is dead now' normally isn't a funny situation
personally i dont care because coxdixlol but i can see how other people would
Gary Coleman would have been a fine Commissioner Gordon.

he was just kind of there all the time and it feels weird now that he's not, so, a thread was made
personally i think we should just make a celeb-death megathread and take bets on who will be 6 feet under by the it reaches 100 pages
As fine an epitaph as any
Also Avenue Q was my first thought, too

Going to reiterate the point that this was posted when his status was injured, not dead.
You can bitch at us for making light of his injuries, though, that's ok.
