      It’s almost like if you want to be remembered fondly, you have to not be a piece of shit while you’re alive.

        I don’t really know all too much about ozzy to be honest. His movie was a big part of my life and i saw him live 3 times. From his private life i only known from what i saw in the handful of episodes of his reality show i saw back in the day and some snippets and fun facts.

        But it’s so funny to me that ozzy osbourne, the king of darkness, the person that uptight americans feared like the anti christ himself turned put to be the nice wholesome guy that people are really bummed out that he died.

        Meanwhile, mr. Say your prayers eat your vegetables, truth justice and the american way of life. Loved by every flag wearing brainwashed idiot, turned out to be a massive piece of shit, racist asshole and people just don’t care and piss on his grave.

        I’ve never been a fan of Ozzy or Black Sabbath, but I can acknowledge that for fans of metal, he was an absolute God. Most long-term musical acts have ups and downs in popularity, but Ozzy became a superstar with their first album, and his INTERNATIONAL popularity never waned one bit to this day. Very impressive service to his fan base.

          I like metal, but know very little about him. One of the first things I knew about him was about him buying something’s head off, so I kinda put him in the “ignore intentionally” bucket.

          And really that’s all I need to know.

          I’ll just appreciate what he gave to music without liking him.

    The only Hulk I’ll mourn is who I thought he was when I was a kid. I already lost that Hulk years ago though.

      I hear ya buddy. I idolised the ground he walked on when I knew nothing about the world except pizza, wrestling and school.

      It’s a real world heel turn young me never would have thought possible.

      I threw the trash over the ring and started eating garbage. Then I took the trashcan and bashed the guy in front of me

      It’s hours til lunchtime here, but I’m meeting an old friend for brunch. I’ve been having to watch my cholesterol recently, but I’ve decided that eating out doesn’t count - I am very much looking forward to it, sausages, bacon, and eggs will be involved.

    The only thing I’m thankful for is that his last public appearance is getting Booed to high hell at WWE.

      Yeah, Hulk Hogan is a great “never meet your heroes” test case. The dude was a huge part of many kids’ formative years, but was actually a massive piece of shit if anyone ever bothered to dig. But before the internet was widespread, digging wasn’t even really possible; all you had to go off of was the public persona that they presented, and whatever you were able to dig up via library research.

        Yeah, unless you were subscribing to the Wrestling Observer or something, you wouldn’t know what kind of a POS Hogan was IRL back in the day. When I first got online and discovered the nascent internet wrestling community back in the day, it was like the scales falling from my eyes.

      You can be sad about the character. Remember Hulk died along time ago when you stopped watching and forgot all about wrestling.

      Now you’re seeing what you once knew and sad that it’s officially gone. It’s OK to be sad about that memory and character perishing.

      It’s also OK to say good riddance to a piece of shit human that was this fuck.

      he was shit-head since the gawker incident, and then wwe erased him from the annuls of wwe history him for like a few years, because of his racist incident. they shouldve kept him erased. thats probably the best gift wwe has down, lol. considering he also helped VINCE union bust too.

    If anyone saw his last public appearance on wwe, the guy got booed out of the building. The wrestling fans turned on him, zapping away his powers of hulkamania. Sadly it was the only thing keeping him alive.

    On a side note, Jesse Ventura must be laughing his ass off right now
