Part of my childhood gone.

It is still a bit shocking. He has looked healthy and half his age his whole life.

Dave · Apr 18, 2012

Have you watched the last few Rockin' New Years? He's looked terrible. He had a stroke a few years ago and he never really recovered.

This is a sign of the end times....

Proof the Mayans were right.

He and Ed McMahon are somewhere hosting a blooper show about all the stupid things humans are doing each moment.

Damn, now I want to watch that.

I'm surprised there wasn't some cute little thread title for this.

Seriously, though, guy lived a looong time.

The internet's right there with you.

That is one of the few memes I love.

I especially loved the one about hitler being jesus back for revenge.

Most major news organizations have obituaries for hundreds if not thousands of people which are kept up to date. When someone dies they put the obit up really fast. Trouble is, there's been a few times where the death hadn't happened...

Abe Vigoda?

Dave · Apr 18, 2012

He is on that list, yes.

That's interesting since Robin was voiced by Casey Kasem, not Dick Clark.
Right church, wrong pew.

Remembering Dick Clark: The long, beautiful life of America's oldest teenager

But because he was never cool and never sold himself as an arbiter of cool, he could never become uncool.
