Damn. That really sucks. I thought we'd be enjoying another 20 years of Shin-chan.

That's pretty shitty.  Hoping there was no foul play on this one.  (Probably a misstep or something...)  RIP

Yeah, truly a confusing post. At first it just seems incredibly a$$hole-ish and ignorant, but being so short we can't jump to conclusions because it really says nothing.

It sure seems like a prick thing to say though.

Statement: "Beloved cartoonist dies unexpectedly early and tragic death."

Response: "gay".

I mean...damn. That's f*cking genius.

Perhaps he's found the closet to be a bit too confining and is trying to find a way out.

Looks like he took a picture from the edge of the cliff and then fell off of it. Link: http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/nn20090922a2.html

I don't know why people have the urge to stand on edges of cliffs. I realize to see the view, but this is precisely why I keep a healthy distance from cliffs.

Ughh, death by misadventure.  That'd be a rough way to check out, but at least there wasn't any foul play involved.

I said gay as in, goddamnit, that sucks.    I like Crayon shin-chan.  i wonder whats going to happen to it now.

Not as in "who cares, the topic is gay"

Didn't mean to offend anyone!  O:)  Its the same thing I blurted outloud when I heard MJ died.

Well, maybe you should stop using "gay" as a derisive term. Especially in one word sentences where who knows what the f*ck you were implying. I always thought of "gay" (when you mean something is bad, not actually gay) as something used by 8 year olds with shitty parents or rednecks.

fair enough.  Now that that is cleared up, how about you and your opinion back off now instead of turning the thread into a needless flamewar.

Unless you and your F-bombs would like to argue P.C. speaking procedures.
