Reid Flair dies

By

You probably have already heard about this.  I'm like 99% sure we'll find out this is from a drug overdose.

Holy shit, I had not heard.  And he was apparently doing really good in Japan, too.

    Oh, and I forgot to add one more thing. I'm assuming that picture in your avatar is your son and you will teach him right from wrong and don't do drugs and whatnot. However, you have ZERO guarantee that he won't try them and just hope he doesn't become addicted, because if he does, them maybe you will have some empathy (at the minimum) and not be so callous.

    The thing is, I would say most drug users (as most people that smoke tobacco) KNOW how bad it is and usually say "don't ever start". However, once you're under the grip of addiction, it's not so easy to get out from under it. It's really easy to preach "get your accountability cards out" and make other populous statements.

    Exactly. Addiction isn't a choice, it's a disease. It's like telling depressed people to "be happy" ...the brain doesn't work that way. It's a science, it's treatable and you need support to get it done.

    Every wrestler that has tweeted on my timeline has a million people responding with "hey derrrrp isnt it said about reid flair rip plz rt"


    And there was one tweet I read that was sent to HHH, Stephanie, and WWE's account that said something to the effect of "Not sure if you guys are aware that Ric's Flair son died at so and so time".


    Jesus people, back the fuck up. This is why wrestlers hate you.

    Kurt was a terrible follow on Twitter, was real easy to unfollow him.

    Yeah I un-followed him real quick. Love him as a wrestler but his twitter is no fun.

    Insane. I'm afraid what this may do to Flair. Despite all his short comings and his fuck ups financially (even affecting his own kids), he always talks about how they're the greatest thing that's ever happened to him.
