Neil Armstrong just passed away...

from wikipedia

Quote
Armstrong, who turned 82 on August 5, 2012, underwent surgery on August 7, 2012, to relieve blocked coronary arteries.[121] Armstrong died on August 25, 2012.[122][123]
Speculation: he didn't get surgery, but a stent via hemodinamics. Sometimes (rarely, to be fair) the stents occlude shortly after being implanted. I've seen it happen.
Well no, he did get a bypass

Those can get obliterated too. I've seen it happen, too, but that time the sufferer was rescued through hemodinamic interventionism that time


Odd bit of trivia: I had this vague idea that Neil Armstrong was black. Was probably mixing him up with Louis Armstrong

I know he was old. I know everyone dies at some point. But this has really shaken me up. The man was an idol of mine, and one of the reasons as a teenager I fell in love with the concept of space and chose Physics as a career.

RIP Neil.

I honestly just died a little inside. I need to find a corner to go weep in.

I just went to look at the Moon, and cried a little.

Just puked up a full liter of water, plus some extra acid on top. It's not just food poisoning.

EDIT: Some came out of my nose D:

There's a line that gets crossed when you know it's some form of dysentery or worse.

I'd say it's just your standard 1-day gastroenteritis.

A little girl called me "creepy looking."

My self body image is now along the lines of a zombie.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

You're going to need to provide images at this rate of going.
