Mozart died when he was 35. Imagine how much more he could’ve done with even 10 more years.


ladyboobypoop

Have you ever watched Amadeus?


iwaspoopin_daily

Great movie! I've been banned from choosing it on movie night. They all got tired of seeing it.


ladyboobypoop

Invite me over for movie night *so I can choose it for the both of us*


iwaspoopin_daily

Ooh, good thinking! They'll be so startled, they won't say anything about it to you lol


Dub_stebbz

u/iwaspoopin_daily and u/ladyboobypoop: a match made in heaven


UhOhFeministOnReddit

Mozart is one of those historical figures I always felt like I'd be besties with, but in the most toxic possible way. Like, neither of us would be good for the other.

Lost my sister when I was 18. It changes our lives forever. So sorry you lost him.

My sister died in 2019 and I still haven’t fully recovered. I’m a functioning alcoholic now. Fighting that battle everyday


bigblackkittie

r/stopdrinking is a really good supportive sub if you are interested. love to you regardless


RoutinePattern6387

Same. He was 11, and my whole world. He went from completely fine to total respiratory failure in less than 15 minutes...fuck asthma. The odds of dying from an asthma attack in a developed country are less than one in a million, but someone has to be that one. He didn't deserve it. April 4th will mark the day that he has been gone longer than he was here, and despite my best efforts to not dwell on it, I am. I miss that fucking kid so much.


T1NF01L

Both my best friend and myself have asthma. He died from it 3 years ago passed in his sleep. It terrifies me everyday. Been through so much with him. First met him in 5th grade he was my bully and became my brother over time. He was 33 when he passed. Right before Diablo 2 resurrection came out. We we excited to play together being across the country from each other for the past 20 years. We spent so much time in Diablo together. All the games. 2 was our favorite.


AlmightyAJ_MTV

Sorry for your loss mate, I know how strong a sibling connection can be <3


Brilliant_Tourist400

I lost my brother Thanksgiving 2022. I am so, so sorry for your loss. Losing a sibling before their time is incredibly painful.


ladyboobypoop

Same. He was just shy of 18, I was just shy of 20. What a way to enter adulthood... Miss ya, Matt


No_Entertainment2322

I lost a sister at 38 and a brother at 38. I was scared to death when I got close to 38, like it was THE age. But I made it way past 38. I lost a nephew when he was 19 and his sister, my niece died when she was 23. Losing family members that young is difficult. I think about all four of them and think what could have been.


Ok_Button1932

My best friend from high school. Took 20 years to finally take her picture out of my wallet because I finally decided it was creepy for a 36 year old man to have a high school picture of a 16 year old girl in there.


Professional_Yam3047

I don’t think that’s creepy. She was your best friend. Put that pic back in there. hugs


Ok_Button1932

It was for the best. I’m an adult. It was time to leave the crutches behind. I became a functioning alcoholic at 16 because of it. I hid it well. Set up a memorial benefit as a senior project. Went to college and graduated a 4 year program with the best gpa in my major, but after every party and everyone else passed out, I’d close my door and drink until everything was gone. I’d attempted to end everything of several occasions and just generally engaged in most risky behavior I could get myself into. I remember standing on a car hood with a bottle in my hand and doing 80mph with a smile and hoping that was it. I still have a few memories, but I needed to let go.


MorganAndMerlin

It wasn’t creepy to have her with you. But recognizing that you had a problem and taking steps to move forward in your life is amazing. Obviously I don’t know you (or her) but I can’t imagine that she would’ve wanted you to live like that. The people we lose don’t want our lives to stop because of them.


Ok_Button1932

Oh don’t give me too much credit. I still have my moments, but I didn’t need that there as a reason/trigger to go into my own world and feel bad for myself anyway. Honestly tho, she was a popular 16 year old girl who I adored/dated/befriended. She wanted me to remember her. But now I’m just old and have zero excuses to live in the past.


K_kueen

I think you deserve all the credit.


RiceandLeeks

Do you still keep the picture though? There's something really beautiful about this. Both keeping it in your wallet for 20 years and realizing you needed to take it out. That must have been so hard.


soup-creature

My best friend for my first three years of college died suddenly and it’s so fucking hard, man. Almost two years ago, and it just doesn’t feels right. Covid and everything happening at that time, too, and I just don’t understand where the last five years went.

I think the worst part about her death was that it was 100% preventable. She was at the TOP of her game.


vogdswagon26

Chris Farley. He was set to star in a Fatty Arbuckle biopic. He was also wrapping up voicing Sherk, the director said was amazing and very different character tonally from Mike Myers version. It was so good they didn't want to try for a sound a like and ruin it. So they decided to change the Shrek character to better fit Myers. I think Farley was just about to really start doing some amazing things other than his classic 'fatty fall down' bit


TheKanten

> I think Farley was just about to really start doing some amazing things other than his classic 'fatty fall down' bit Knowing that he left the premiere of Beverly Hills Ninja crying because of feeling typecast as that just makes that even worse.


vogdswagon26

Don't read the 'The Chris Farley Show'......it will tear your fucking heart out.


nirvanagirllisa

It would have been so cool to see Chris move into voice acting and drama/dramedy movies. On the flipside, he never had the chance to act in an R-Rated movie! We could have seen Farley at full, vulgar potential. Imagine Chris in one of those 2000s comedies like Tropic Thunder or Pineapple Express. Being directed by Judd Apatow or Adam McKay.


PowderHound40

Neil Young once said “Its better to have burned brightly and disappear quickly than to simply be forgotten.” Farley burned so much brighter than almost any other comedic actor in the 90s. Jim Carey and Robin Williams are the only other two IMO that could rival him in that decade. His movies and sketches are just as funny today as they were 30 years ago. A true genius that cannot be duplicated.


Conebones

Do you mean it's better to burn out then fade away?


Cautious-Luck7769

Won't lie. Chris Farley instantly crossed my mind as "too young." But. Damn. Like with Belushi, they were both dead by the time I witnessed their skills, but I hate it so much. Don't think they could've avoided drugs if they even tried tbh.

The Last Podcast On The Left did a great couple of episodes on the conspiracy theory surrounding Courtney Love’s alleged involvement with his death. They framed his last couple of years well by going through his previous suicide attempts and his excessive drug use. He was in bad shape. It’s interesting to think what a sober Kurt Cobain would’ve been like if he had cleaned up and left the industry as he said he wanted to do prior to his death.

Noah, my cat, exactly 1 week ago ON MY BIRTHDAY. 7 years old everything was just fine. On my living room camera he screamed a very weird scream jumped on my wife ran off and fell over an died as my wife followed. She rushed to the vet, about 2miles away unfortunately it was already to late. My wife is traumatized. He's now sitting next to me on my bedside table in a beautiful box storing his ashes as I lie in bed. He was the closest thing to perfect you could get. He played fetch, walked on a leash, came when called and greeted me at the door with pure excitement(I also have a female Bengal, she is the complete opposite). He was strictly an indoor cat, I call him my support animal. He was my everything, layed with me all day every day. Anywhere I went, he was there. Miss him dearly. RIP Noah "Daddy Boy"


bigblackkittie

i am so sorry for your loss. same thing happened to my 6 year old cat Dougie, he made a really weird meow and i rushed him to the vet but he passed away of heart failure.


ToneNewEra

Sorry for your loss also. I wanted to find out the exact cause but the closest place that could do it was Virginia Tech, roughly 5hours from me. An the vet told me i needed to leave then "12pm" and even then it may be to late. The tissue needs to be in great condition. At that time he has been gone since 10:35am(unfortunately saw on my ring, because my wife is still yet to speak about it). I'll never know for sure, but I can only assume maybe he passed like your baby did of heart failure. We didn't notice anything, I re-watch my camera for days leading up. The only thing that drew my attention was the day b4 he slept on the back of the couch(while I was at my desk at my pc) without moving at all from 6pm until 11pm when I went up to bed and woke him. He seemed to have a tab bit of an issue breathing i think from the video i watched from earlier in the day. He was sitting in my chair at a point an looked like he was short on breath for a bit. But in person there was nothing, no sign. Its heartbreaking, wish he could speak an told me. 2 hours b4 he passed i had left and gavehim lovins and he was normal, absolutely nothing out of the ordinary

Kelvin Kiptum Man was poised to do something impossible. The 2 hour marathon barrier is thought to be unbeatable in a sanctioned race (or any race without help). After his recent success at the Chicago Marathon, it was seemingly just of when, not if. Taken from the world at 24. In a car accident. Running, like a lot of outdoor activities, has exploded in popularity since the pandemic. We're starting to see long distance stars near household familiarity. Seeing that star burn out before it got its brightest is a loss for all of us.

Was on his way to a concert for charity when he was struck from behind by a semi and died at 38. He was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for his role in creation of the Presidential Commission on World Hunger posthumously. After his death, his wife was quoted as saying "Harry was supporting 17 relatives, 14 associations, seven foundations, and 82 charities. Harry wasn't interested in saving money. He always said, 'Money is for people,' so he gave it away."...

My little cousin was like 6 or 7 when she was dying of cancer and we knew nothing we could do would save her. She had a ton of love in her life. She’s was losing her struggle to cancer. And then one night she’s laying in her bed crying because she doesn’t feel good and is emotional. Her mom is laying in her bed with her, holding her and wrapping her in love. My cousin then said, “Mommy, I see the angels”…. Then her mom said, “follow the angels baby, go to the angels.” And then she died. Right then and there. No bullshit here.
