Just fuck right off, 2016.

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something.  We need to stop this fucking planet right now and sort some shit out. -Kail

Yeah. There's only 4 more days until 2017. I cringe thinking of who else Death is going to take from us this year.

Too much to ask for and I'm sure just thinking about it is going to mean a whole bunch of others we shouldn't lose will go in their stead. Because some assholes just never die.

This is true.

I am pretty sure Princess Leia was my first celebrity crush. I remember having a dream about her moving in next door to my house when I was 7 or so. I didn't quite understand why, but I knew I wanted her nearby. RIP Heartbreak

I saw her last night on a late night Channel 4 comedy game show. She was a funny lady. She, for example, when asked about the old movies said she does not like watching them because, apparently, she has grown older.

What an absolutely shitty ass year.  Notwithstanding all the celebrity deaths and calamitous world events, it's been awful personally.  My father already had ALS and then 2016 decided to give him a stroke which robbed him of most of his mind.  This was probably the last Christmas I'll have with him.  Fuck 2016 right in it's ear.

And RIP Carrie Fisher. Heartbreak

Carrie Fisher was probably my second celebrity crush, after Debbie Harry.

I have been really bummed all day and have actually cried multiple times when I see some of the gifs going around. Knew it was coming based on the reports but it has affected me more than I thought it would. Star Wars is baked into me as a formative pop culture experience and overall part of my life really really deeply.  I was super-bummed when Guinness died (I named my kid after him after all) but he was 86 and had a pretty good run. 60 is way too fucking young. She also seemed like someone who had overcome a lot of shit and came out of it with humor which is really difficult.  This year really has been something.

Her audition. Interesting how the dialogue was pared down so much in the actual film.

That audition is odd to watch, but fuck was she cute at that age.  For some reason, the first SW I ever watched was ESB, and dear god did I fall in love.  Even looking back on it these days, I still think she looks amazing in that movie, better than both of the others.

She was younger and also the daughter of two Hollywood icons, so its no surprise she leaped off the screen.
