When I first saw him on Mork and Mindy, I thought his manic behaviour looked like he was high on coke. I guess to some extent he was self medicating and his later work looked a lot calmer so I thought maybe he had solved his problems. Hard drugs are never your friend and so RIP. He was a talented and generous human being.

Insomnia is a pretty good movie with him, not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet.

Man, I'm still bummed out about this. The only other celeb death that hit me was Johnny Cash. I had to take off of work that day. Probably should have taken today off for all the time I've spent watching Robin's work on youtube.

It's funny, but now when I watch his interviews with Craig or Letterman, and he's acting all crazy I just see a guy desperate for people to not see how bad he's hurting. Maybe that's not right, but it looks like it to me. Damn, I'm going to miss this guy.

if you haven't already, listen to his interview with Marc Maron on the WTF podcast. It was reposted yesterday.

I'd say this a dumb, ignorant post, but you weren't even smart enough to see that woman actually attempt suicide more. god I hate your posts on CP. Gay bashing, ignorance in every which direction. Just awesome. Keep up the good work.

Apologize to everyone for that post, but after just recently dealing with a suicide I just have no tolerance for dumb, stupid, ignorance from guys like him.

I always recommend this movie to people, and either immediately or after viewing they always look at me queer. Like I thrust a dick-shaped cookie in their face.

Some people just can't understand or appreciate a brilliant dark comedy. Such an incredible film.

How about shut your pie-hole nit wit, I don't gay bash in anyway so don't make crap up, woman attempt suicide more? what kind of poll is that? if the numbers posted don't fit please by all means dispute them but to personally attack me is juvenile. just admit it, your hate post is about the Israel thread. if it's not that it's because of my anti-religion beliefs, in any case since you can't deal with it please put me on you ignore list'

P.S...your not the only one who has dealt with loved ones committing suicide..in case you haven't noticed it's like a f#%king cancer and just about everyone has dealt with it.

Sorry for your loss. Some people like to speak about things which they do not know, and when those people make themselves known, it's best to just ignore them completely. It's hard, but no good comes from entertaining it.

I don't really follow the Israel thread, and I'm typically with you on your anti-religious beliefs. It's 100% because of your homophobic posts and your ignorance to depression and suicide.

But I do apologize, this isn't the thread for this, it really isn't. My bad.

Yeah, shouldn't have done it in this thread. But just saw his post and with what I've been through lately just kind of responded. It happens, but I shouldn't have gone at it with him in this thread. I'll drop it now, this thread is for Robin Williams.

WTF are you talking about? I may not march in a parade but I'm far from homophobic, two of my best friends are gay for f#%ks sake. as for depression and suicide, I lost a first cousin and a good friend to it, your right, I am somewhat ignorent of it because I personally think it's the most selfish act a person can do.

Anyway, sorry for your loss.
