Have Any Hip Forumers died?

Exactly. I never even knew these people unfortunately, just remember the screennames, and I still care. Not a time to be dealing out I knew more than you cards I dont think, anyone can pay respects

 

Yes, we are allowed to care. ...and we should and I do.
I'll share a little something stupid.
I've had the cable removed @ home. If I want just to see a movie - I'll download. If I like a movie I'll buy. I hate commercials, I hate when they cut the movie, I hate to be at the mercy of the channel.
That's not the main reason though.
News kept popping up, and tv shows talked about it - the death counts in Iraq, the accidents, the murders, et al... I can't do shit about the stupid governments who send soldiers (who are kids) to die. This was creating more and more anxiety to me. So, I can't change it? Well, I kicked it's ass out of my life.
I still care though - I'm never giving up.
The war that we need is a war against war. A war against violence, a war against non-chalant people. It's always going to be Hippy Time in my heart. Just because a heart is beating - it doesn't mean someone is alive - we have to care.

 

there were several posters who i've liked who haven't posted recently... are all of them dead?


the in memory of thread is just too long to sustain my interest, especially considering i don't even remember a majority of the dead posters.

 

Death is a thief.

i died.....but i got better, it seems hell wasn't as much fun as i thought it was gonna be.

 

You kill me with your jokes...

 

i just wanted to lighten up the thread.

 

I was sad when I found out about Matt. I used to go to his and Althea's forums...Althea is gone too.

Maybe he is whooping it up with John Denver somewhere...

 

If you spend your entire life fighting death, fearing death, cursing death, when death finally wins you'll find that you didn't really live.

I have lived well and I don't fear it at all. There are days I would welcome it. Death isn't an end. It's a new beginning. So live well and never miss the opportunity to tell others how you feel about them. I love you guys. Except Adam. He's a creep.

 

I don't fear my death. ...at least I don't think I do. There's not really anyone around that I can cause grief to.
If I am sad, it's not so much for the death of others it's because of the loss it gives me. I know it's selfish. When someone dies, it's over for them but the survivors - they suffer. When I die - fuck the World. I have two good friends. I hope to die before them because I don't want to suffer.

 

Yes. It is selfish to grieve that which you will never have when you should be celebrating that which you do. It's also unproductive and wasteful.

 

Well, I grieve the loss of those two people, had a tear in my eye when I learned of it yesterday. However, life goes on for me. They are gone, I'm around. I can't stop, then someone else stops - so, the whole World dies too? I do take a moment and think of the ones gone. I don't see it as "unproductive" - and if it were - life doesn't always have to be productive. There are lessons that can be learned from people who have passed and shined in our life - however a short time it was.
