Seldom mentioned in the media is that he died from COVID-19.
Does anyone know if he has any pre-existing conditions?
(This is a joke)
He was perfectly healthy, truly had lungs of iron
Don't make jokes about people dying, jackass.
some people get through trauma with various flavors of emotive tools, including sarcasm and humor.
I hear that "Gallows humor" excuse every single time and it's only ever used so assholes can feel good about being assholes. It's basically the "Women like getting r--ed" excuse that incels use to justify their shitty behavior. Yes sometimes they say that, but it's not a justification.
You know full well nobody here was saying that to "get through hard times" you're all safe on your computers punching down at dead people.
What are you the gallows humor police? Can I still joke about Hitler's death or is that taboo now? I'm German so I have a Hitler given mandate to make fun of him and all the other nazis scum.
yeah, if they have a mutual emotional connection to the deceased. I don't think these two ever met.
I've seen interviews with this guy. He had a surprisingly bright outlook on life. I think he would have found this funny.
Why?

Don't do that shit. Go back to reddit if you can't understand typos.
It's not a typo when its a correctly spelled, but incorrect word. A typo is where you mash keys or type them in the wrong order - a typographical error. Writing the wrong word entirely is an error.
You've never had your phone auto correct into a different but similar weird before?
I'm just pointing out a common mistake so the person has a chance to learn. That mistake is not a typo.
IDGAF tbh
Get a life
Ain't that a bitch. One virus took his body. Another took his life.
Both are preventable through safe, effective, and widely available vaccines. Vaccinate yourselves and your children, friends.
Currently COVID-19 is not preventable through vaccination on its own, especially not at the currently recommended once-per-year schedule, because they don’t last anywhere near that long.
It is not preventable to get down with it, but the vaccines reduce its effects so much that even people with chronic breathing illnesses or organ transplants can handle it like a moderate flu. Mileage will vary from person to person, of course.
Your direct point stands, but it is still a huge win for pro-vaccination.
But the vaccine reduce the risk! That's the most important part
Those are good but you also need to mask to prevent the spread of covid.
The COVID vaccine doesn't prevent you from getting COVID. It just mitigates the symptoms. You can still get it and spread it.
Worth noting that being vaccinated makes it harder to spread
If anybody wonders how, it's because vaccination means the immune system reduces viral load, so you spread much less virus and thus others exposed have a better chance of avoiding infection.
In other words, it does exactly the same as any other vaccine...
And what do you think people die from? The symptoms, knucklehead.
Wow, did you get up on the wrong side of the bed this morning ?
Just tired of the "well, actually..." comments that make no sense.
I'm aware of that but the comment I replied to says the virus is preventable. You really think I understand how the vaccine works but not what people die from or did you just need to make a degrading comment?
