Both deaths are sad, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Gary Coleman's was a bit sadder than Dennis Hopper's. Hopper was 74 years-old and had reportedly been losing his fight with prostate cancer for some time, but Coleman's death was really out of the blue. Wednesday he was randomly hospitalized, Thursday he was on life support, and Friday he was dead. He was just 42.
You've gotta feel bad for Gary Coleman, plainly put, the man's life sucked. I mean, not only was he a midget and his parents took and spent all of his money, but he was constantly the butt of people's jokes. Even yesterday, the day the man died, dickhole wannabe comedians were taking jabs at the man. We couldn't give the man one damn day before making fun of him??
And news flash to all you wannabe comedians, taking aim at an easy target like Gary Coleman is no feat. Making Gary Coleman short jokes is equivalent to making Michael Jackson molester jokes or O.J. Simpson murderer jokes in the sense that it takes zero effort or comedic talent to do and it was fucked out YEARS ago. Might as well talk about how black people have to struggle, and the differences between blacks and whites while you're at it.
Y'all know I'm one of the least sensitive people out there, but geez, have some respect and dignity about your shit. R.I.P to both men.
