Not shocking. Hunter wasn't exactly known for his stable personality.

But wow. *cheers* to an always-interesting guy.

Not how I wanted to start my day with the news that one of our nations great independent thinkers and practicioners of free will has taken his own life.
But with the broken back, replaced hip, and recently broken leg the man obviously just felt his corporeal form going to hell and decided to handle the job himself, typical Hunter.
R.I.P H.S.T you were one of the greats.
Time to listen to the Criterion commentary one more time.

RIP Hunter S. Thompson

There he goes, one of God's own prototypes. A high powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live and too rare to die.

You're about nine hours late. There's already a lengthy discussion about the good doctor going on here.
