Wow... first my buddy posts a FFDP song that guts me... then I see this (and I did a google search, to see if this was a hoax, even though huffpost isn't really in the fake news industry)
If it indeed is a suicide, I think it points out how, some of our most beloved comedians are some carrying around the most pain.

I have nothing to say that isn't trite, but the man made me laugh and provided untold hours of entertainment and reflection. I feel for his friends and family and wish them the best while they deal with this tragedy.

First Paul Walker, now him? Why couldn't it have been Bieber?* WHY GOD, WWWWWHHHHHHYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!
*Bieber ain't a rapist or pedo so I don't actually wish death on him. His death over Mr Williams is but the lesser of 2 evils. Personally I'd rather the beaver's bad attitude died.
RIP Robin Williams, you will be missed by many and adored by even more for years to come.

1-800-273-8255 is a suicide prevention hotline. Do not be afraid or feel ashamed if you think you need to use it.
(Disclaimer: at least in the US it is... not sure of the equivalent from other places)
This is a good idea. I think we should have a sticky on this board about suicide prevention numbers for every country. Even if one person manages to pull through its worth the effort IMO. Off to the Nutz and Bolts.

This is truly a tragic day. Williams has touched all of us in some way, most commonly as the Genie in Aladdin. The man was a genius in all that he has done. The world is truly darker at his passing. I hope that those among us with religious beliefs follow my thought that such a great man doesn't deserve the flames-hopefully God made an exception and took him up.
You will be missed-you've done some amazing things, and you will never be forgotten.
Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.

So sad. I grew up with him as a little kid watching Mork and Mindy and then the AWESOME movies he has made. He made me laugh. He made me cry. I loved his work.

Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

I think he was a great comedian and had an equally incredible talent for acting. It's sad to see somebody struggle with addition and take their life to escape that struggle. In clearer moments he brought a lot of laughter to the world and like many others I'm going to miss him.

Jesus this fething sucks. What does it say that one of the funniest people in the world commits suicide? There's an irony there that I think sucks ass.
