    “Do not grieve. Soon…I will be one with the Matrix”

    This one hurts me a lot. He was my childhood, and hell, adulthood hero. He WAS the voice of most kids who grew up in the 80s and 90s. He was Optimus Prime, He introduced you to Voltron, He was Dr. Watson, he was Eeyore, He was Ramrod and the voice of the Saber Riders, He was a Rescue Ranger and a Gummi Bear, He was everything.

    When the Transformers live action movie came out in theatres I cried when I heard his voice again. The man was like a father figure to me.

    I’ll miss you Mr. Cullen.

      Death should try a different kind of bait. Jailbait would probably work for Trump.

      It’s not that.

      It’s that 50 years ago there was a fraction of “famous people” alive that we have now.

      Once Hollywood, etc grew exponentially, more people became favors. We all die. Ergo we will see a lot more frequent deaths like this as the new normal.

      It will get faster.

    Aw :(

    Gif from Rainbow Brite: Murky Dismal is lying flat on the ground, motionless. His buddy Murky with a sad look on his face picks him up and holds him by the back of his collar. Murky stays seemingly unconscious.

    The Reaper is not doing a good job by killing these worthwhile people with careers and lived honestly.

    Why wouldn’t the Reaper go after freaking Trump, George W Bush or so? They’re 80+
