THis saddens me. He was just awesome.

Though honestly, Dom DeLuise's death upset me the most out of everyone else's deaths this year.

Infomercials will never be the same...

To be honest I never really liked the guy other than the craze he started for funny jokes of his stuff.

RIP though.

Guess this means it won't be as cool to post the "You shut your whore mouth when Billy Mays is talking" pics.

But yeah, RIP to the guy. Like Brandon said, he really made me want to buy things.

I suppose those were all just too soon right after Christopher Reeve died, then?

You know, what if I do personally think they are?

I swear people will make humor off of something the first chance they get. It worries me...

It's not humor. It's taking the best qualities of a person and making a tribute to them.

No wonder you think humour is overrated. You don't know what the **** it is. Just because something is funny doesn't mean it's poking fun or attempting to capitalize. Those are tribute comics. Tribute.

How can humor be overrated? It's a natural human instinct. It's equivalent to saying "eating is overrated", it's just as nonsensical.

The fact is that that pic was made on the day of his death is shocking. It's like there was a dude sitting at his computer and when he heard about Billy Mays, he immediately thought of a pic he could make and got to work on it ASAP.

Trust me, it is when most of the people you know(Not just here, but in real life too) don't know when to be serious and when it's right to joke about something. Constantly.

Yes, he sat there and said "I want to pay tribute to an awesome person, and I want to memorialize them by showing them doing what they do best".

The artist is clearly a douchebag because of this.

As far as the Christopher Reeve images, take the proper meaning out of them. "You will believe a man can fly" is the famous tagline of the first Superman movie, and the part about walking again is about believing that Reeve can now walk in Heaven. The second one is showing Reeve being offered help by St. Peter, but Reeve decides he wants to walk because he hasn't done it in like fifteen years. He's free of his earthly bonds and is now able to do what he's desired to do. As for the last one, it's saying that Reeve was such a great person, one who did so much to help others, that Superman, arguably the greatest and most famous heroic icons of all time, considers him his hero.

I am very sure I did not call the artist a "douchebag". All I said I was shocked at how fast it was made and obviously got Tribute and Humor mixed up.

I know you didn't call him that. I was being over dramatic on purpose to emphasize the fact that you were spouting utter crap.
