Does it bother you when people treat dead celebrities like they were the next Jesus?
All over my social feed I see people virtue signaling how much they loved Carrie Fisher and how great she was. Wtf? All she did was show up in a bikini in a movie 30 years ago! She has literally not done anything notable since then.
No I just ignore it If it bothers you that's weirder
Christian Powell
Most people have spent more time with Carrie Fisher, visa vie watching the Star Wars movies, than they have their own cousins. The brain will develop an emotional attachment to that regardless of how silly it is.
William Perez
Get better friends.
Cameron Morales
Fisher fucked her fans. If you cousins didn't have sex with you, pity them.
Evan Gray
>saying you're sad someone you liked died is "treating them like they were the next Jesus" judging from your unironic use of virtue signaling I'm going to guess you're a Sup Forumstard which makes that statement even more retarded
Caleb Wood
I thought of her more as a wacky aunt than as Princess Leia.
Lincoln Morgan
people will cry about it with others in social media because they have the need to be a part of something
Ryder Taylor
why's everybody getting so worked up about Peter Griffin's boss dying?
Alexander King
wtf she became jabba
Ethan Fisher
This is as funny as when Paul Walker died a couple years ago and all the Mexicans/third world shitters were basically bursting into treats for days. I'm not even trying to be edgy with that statement.
I don't understand how you can get so emotionally invested into someone you have never met in your life, no matter how many times you watched any of their movies.
are their lives THAT empty that they feel the need to express their sadness to thousands of other random facebook/twitter people?
Ian Lee
Well Jesus came back from the dead.
Jayden Kelly
>Her last tweet What did she mean by this?
Hunter Stewart
Her 30 Rock character wasn't that far from the truth.
Adam Jackson
You're exaggerating. She had a lot of fans who enjoyed seeing her in movies (not just Star Wars. Yes she was in other movies) and they're sad that she died so they just want to say how much they liked her, whether or not she has done anything "notable" since Star Wars.
Owen Perry
i mean it's clear she died at 60 from doing non stop blow in her youth
not gonna garner a lot of sympathy from me like we lost some HERO
Ethan Lewis
Damn I never realized it was her.
Nathaniel Lopez
I only felt bad for Paul Walker. Usually they're old as shit or drug addicts
Joseph Anderson
>be typical hollywood starlet >fuck everyone, do tons of drugs >develop mental health problems >die >people worship the ground you walk on cuz MUH NOSTALGIA
Nathan Bell
>kill jabba >later become jabba pottery bravo george
>All over my social feed Here's your problem, faggot.
You're as much of a child as they all are, mentally.
Isaac Cooper
Yup, worst part is they wouldn't have giving a fuck about them on any giving day but when they die now they choose to come out as big fans of their works even though they were mediocre. Would love to see more of a negative opinion towards celebrities who committing suicide to make it look more cool for their careers, if I remember when Robin Williams died the Dutch media really hated the fact he did that.
Brayden Harris
They copped a lot of shit for this back in the day when they were completely right, although I don't think Carrie was an outright arsehole.
Ayden Richardson
>Would love to see more of a negative opinion towards celebrities who committing suicide to make it look more cool for their careers, if I remember when Robin Williams died the Dutch media really hated the fact he did that. What the fuck is wrong with the Dutch? He killed himself because he was nutso.
Colton Roberts
>That time Adam Hills jumped on Joan River's death purely for attention after completely and utterly shitting on her for making fun of Adele There is not a more sycophantic, stuck up piece of shit in the entertainment business. Absolutely no integrity at all. You can keep him, England.
Nathaniel Davis
>virtue signaling
misusing buzzwords you see parroted on the 4chins won't really get you anywhere
Connor Russell
>le fuck 2016
Lincoln Ortiz
>England He's a convict, mate. Are all you yanks this terrible with accents?
Elijah Torres
people chimping out about celebrities dying any celebrity is pretty fucking weird to me period
If all of Hollywood died tomorrow I wouldn't give a fuck and I'm not even saying that out of malice either
i remember when news broken that Anna Nicole Smith died and I saw girls crying about it in my student lounge at uni it truly boggled my mind
Cameron Green
don't you have a favourite actor or personality whose untimely death you would be disappointed to learn of?
Kayden Barnes
>Does it bother you when people treat dead celebrities like they were the next Jesus? Not really, I'm not some maladjusted piece of shit who gets all hot and bothered when other people get attention, especially not dead people. Do you hate the world when someone other than you gets praise or attention, user? Is your constant stream of nothing unfulfilling and upsetting?
Christian Clark
Read what I said again. I know he's Australian, you idiot, I am one. He just said that shit on his English show and seems to be more popular over there.
Jaxson Williams
>Mexicans >bursting into treats
Nathaniel Robinson
>Does it bother you when people treat dead celebrities like they were the next Jesus? yes. it's a sign of a lost society.
Hudson Price
It's annoying, doubly so when 2 or more die in quick succession and you get metalhead mad normies are more sad about rickman than lemmie or carrie fisher than the dude who wrote watership down, but yeah FBPB, people are gonna do it regardless why let it get to me?
Kayden Torres
Unless they were tortured to death I really wouldn't think twice about it. I simply can't recreate the thought process that requires you to mourn for a person you never interacted with.
Bentley Evans
I'd be pretty sad if Thomas Pynchon or David Lynch died, more disappointed by the fact that normies will pretend to like their works even though they wouldn't have cared about them before their deaths.
Isaac Torres
Nope, I'm not 12. Here's the general template for getting through adult life.
>retarded woman at the office, coffee shop, bus stop, proctology waiting room >"Oh, did you hear about X" >Yes, I did. >"Ooh, isn't it a shame" >Yeah, I liked them in Y.
You are now done with your small talk about the latest celeb death, and you can proceed to instantly forget about it. The highest grief can possibly get about some fucking actor who hasn't had a role I cared about in 20 years is "oh, that's a bit of a shame FOR THEIR FAMILY".
Logan Sanchez
it's worse when it's a star wars actor. we've had that shit shoved down our throat for almost 2 decades, it's fucking infuriating the amount that shit has been pushed to make money, people are rightfully angry that it is continued to be pushed, and probably that people are having a "sincere" personal reaction is pretty irritating.
Noah Gray
wut
James Martinez
>Does it bother you when people treat dead celebrities like they were the next Jesus? Been happening for the longest time. No problem with people who actually knew them personally making public statements, but when every Joe and Pauline start making these asinine comments as if they knew the deceased personally, it just comes off as pathetic.
Kayden Sanchez
Who cares, they're only Americans. And nobody ausfag is famous enough for anyone to give a shit.
Jace Lee
I'm going to miss her twitter shitposting. Still kind of weird to think she's dead, I'm not that sad but it's kind of depressing knowing she and her mom died a day apart from each other, shit must be rough for the family.
Blake Rodriguez
I still miss him.
And I'll be sad to Mel Gibson go, if he counts as an Australian in your eyes.
Asher Lewis
...
Nicholas Collins
because famous star wars actors die all the time, right? fisher is literally the first of the big 3 (hamill, ford, fisher) to die, and she died suddenly and expectedly at fucking 60. then her world famous mother dies the next day. they were longtime icons of popular culture and beloved worldwide. people form attachments to them even if they didn't know them personally. that's just how it is
and at least it's innocently obnoxious, unlike people mourning over dead presidents and other mass murderers
Oliver Carter
why should anyone care about star wars? it's a children's movie, I honestly have lowered respect for people that treat star wars with revere.
Luis Evans
well, i feel the same way about lord of the rings and harry potter. but what can you do
Logan Torres
Well, that "love" thing is dumb famewhore attention, but she did a lot of notable things, she script doctored almost everything that Lucas done (the shitty Prequels would be even more garbage without her co work on the scripts), also Lethal Weapon 3 and so on.
Christian Jones
cry me a river
Carter Lopez
she wrote like ten books and an award winning screenplay
Jayden Ortiz
ah, a lotr pleb. no wonder you're so triggered by the tributes for fisher
carry on
Levi Perry
...
Colton Sullivan
well, you're the one emotionally attached to a children's sitcom so i don't really care.
Brayden Scott
Like a pinata?
Dominic Lopez
>mfw my gf wanted to do the gay memorial drive It's a sickness of the mind
Isaac Stewart
>t. lotrbaby
Ian Ross
That's because you literally have some kind of social disorder like autism, from the sounds of it.
Benjamin Hughes
Carrie Fisher did more good for this world than jesus. OP is a misogynist.
Colton Edwards
>ng knowing she and her mom died a day apart from each other
>It's real
Camden Clark
>Fisher fucked her fans shhh the normies don't know this
btw if Carrie is looking down on us, she'd be laughing at that tweet that Steve Martin had to delete.
She lived the most fullest and funnest life seriously so she in no way would find that offensive.
Anthony Young
That thing with Walker was really beyond ridiculous, he was a shitty C Movie Actor you hired if Brad Pitt was too expensive. He gave horrible performances on screen and he died because he was a shitty douchebag who drove way more faster than he was allowed and killed not only him, but also his Passenger. Glad there was no Children there.
Cameron Gray
I get that she does this to get past the word count but this seems like way more work than just writing two posts both for her and whoever is trying to figure out what the fuck they're reading.
Leo Morales
>virtue signaling It's called empathy user Why do I get the feeling you're a contrarian edgelord?
David Cox
>All she did was show up in a bikini in a movie 30 years ago! She has literally not done anything notable since then.
Jace Fisher
the real Pynchon died shorty after Against the Day was published user
Levi Myers
Yeah she struck me as being a total bro, she seemed to embrace when people made fun of her coke binges and probably enjoyed being back in the limelight over the past couple years.
I hope her pupper is alright, poor little dude.
Cameron Price
>be Steve Martin >see that an old friend of yours has died >you really liked her and thought she had an amazing personality paired with talent >realise now that she's gone how much you'll miss her >in your grief decide to venture into the world of social media to share how special you thought your friend was >SJWs come out in force to defend Carrie Fisher "on her behalf" despite you knowing her PERSONALLY >get shit on by a horde of SJWs consistently while you're still mourning the loss of a good friend >decide to delete your tweet to be alone with your grief since you realize you're alone either way now >at least you're not being called a sexist pig anymore
Luis Walker
>Newfag doesn't know the bursting in to treats maymay
noooo
John Brooks
But people aren't sad that she's dead. People are hysterical. They're acting like 2016 was the worst year of their lives because some people from movies or music died.
Elijah Lee
are they?
Gavin Peterson
what did it say?
Bentley Smith
Yes. Celebrity death is not only a vapid topic, it's also a boring one. This kind of pretentious loathing so many feel like doing for actors they never met is ridiculous, especially when such people are involved with in an industry based around money laundering, drugs, and nepotism.
I'm with 's template. Unless there is something remarkable or questionable about the death, people really shouldn't be taking this kind of stuff past a minute or two.
David Rivera
Bullshit. It was almost exclusively white kids who idolized street racing and shit. No one in the 3rd world gave a single fuck.
Chase Phillips
yes, but its mostly because of this guy
Cameron Lewis
>All she did was show up in a bikini in a movie 30 years ago good enough for me also, she was our princess

David Bowie Alan Rickman Abe Vigoda Prince nuChekov R2D2 Gene Wilder the fag who sang "You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)" Leonard Cohen the fag who sang "Last Christmas" Princess Leia
Aaron Sanchez
That guy is so British it physical hurts to watch that shit.
Austin Myers
>He asks on fucking Sup Forums
Are you new here?
You do realize this board had such diehard fans and waifuists that the idea of a /cel/ board was floating around several times over the last five years?
Specifically speaking on Carrier Fisher, for many of us she's an iconic part of our childhoods. Gene Wilder hasn't done shit in almost 20 years but I'm sure you can imagine that the outpouring of grief isn't just "virtue signaling" or whatever the fuck that means.
Dylan Kelly
Worshiping celebrities is a sign of cultural malaise. People also unworthy of worship include athletes.
Why does nobody think statesmen, doctors, and police are heroes anymore? People would rather give their love to people who create "fake" things instead of improving the lives of others.
Jaxson Powell
>Why does nobody think statesmen, doctors, and police are heroes anymore? probably because most of them are scumbags, criminals and murderers
Christian Cox
>probably because most of them are scumbags, criminals and murderers
When we live in an age of internet news, the sheer abundance of information makes things look worse than they actually are. I don't think anyone is perfect, but I do think that if anyone wants to think cops are bad, there's enough online information to satisfy their confirmation bias.
Ryder Nelson
Get over it. People dying sucks, but I envy those fuckers because they don't have to share a planet with mouthbreathers like you any longer.
Hudson Turner
Vis a vis
Noah Parker
Yes. Almost no one gave a fuck when Phillip Seymour Hoffman died or Robin Williams.
All of a sudden turbo whore Carrie Fischer and fucking DEBBIE REYNOLDS (known to anyone under 40 as the grandmother in Halloweentown) pass away and people are ready to kill themselves.
At least Phillip was a good actor.
Austin Peterson
Robin Williams had a ton of people crying wtf are you talking about?
Cameron Hughes
>almost no one gave a fuck when Robin Williams died
Are you even trying dude?
Xavier Johnson
Fucking glad she's dead quite frankly, fuck that noise.
Adam Sullivan
She's in hell.
Chase Wood
People really shouldn't use foreign phrases if they don't know what they mean.

>2016 was a terrible year because a few famous showbiz people died and I was led, since childhood, to identify with them and I did so due to my limited intellectual skills that make me inescapably vulnerable to conforming forces
mfw too intelligent to mourn some inconsequential entertainer
Nathan Richardson
I mean, there were people actively shitting on him and his career after he died. People are defintely more religious about these two deaths than they are his.
Are you fucks even trying? My facebook wall is plastered with Carrie. Robin was "so-so" to a lot of people (myself excluded).
Adam Myers
Damn didn't even hear about Richard Adams dying :(
Ryan Taylor
>Sup Forums whining endlessly about people whining
>I'm now whining about the whining of the people whining.
How about you break the cycle, and keep you dumb faggy complaints to yourself.
