Death of Heath Ledger
Alex C:
Stress and insufficient sleep is a vicious cycle; as SAD and others with various conditions can tell you, it's often really hard to tell where depression stops and sleep deprivation begins.
RobbieOC:
Also, in the flyer they claim he is already in Hell (which they confirmed how?), so how does it make any sense to go to his funeral and just add insult to injury, so to speak? Crazy, people, I tell you. As a Christian who is not a member of the WBC, I will be praying for his family.
This death is one of the strangest things I've heard in a while, especially the supposed link between his death and his role as the Joker. It's definitely going to make the movie way more effective, because think of how creepy it will be to see him on the screen all made up...
VisualRhetoricProject:
He was cute. He won't be anymore, unless he's embalmed soon.
Paav:
I enjoyed him as an actor and being of a similar age this hits closer than I like. It's just awful to think about his daughter.
The WBC has actually been the motivation for many towns and counties around the US to pass laws prohibiting protesting within a certain distance of a funeral. It's pretty much just an extended family of religious wack jobs from Kansas. They sure do push my belief in freedom of speech.
UnidentifiedFlyingCupcake:
It's so sad. Like (almost) all of you said... so young, such potential, such a loss for his family. Thoughts and prayers to them.
On a related note, it gives me a little bit of hope to come here and see a bunch of people who have a rational, compassionate, human outlook on this. The last couple of days all I've heard was either girls completely freaking out because they think it's such a tragedy because he's so hot, or people saying "screw him; thousands of other people die every day; why should I care; he was an idiot." Thank you, QC forumites, for being reasonable and empathetic human beings.
