Gachimuchi star passed away Anonymous 03/03/18 (Sat) 20:17:05 No. 800930
A cornerstone of /jp/ culture, a man, and a hero. Billy Herrington has passed away today in a traffic accident. Was part of many /a/ collages and will be missed by all.

He passed away before his mother and left behind a wife and 2 children, along with a puppy he got 2 weeks ago. Fuck this twisted earth.

Even if if I hate homos, he wasn't a faggot. He seemed like a genuinely cool guy I wanted to hang out with, he felt very authentic whenever he was with fans and other people, and didn't feel like an attention whore, either. Him being a family man and having dogs only makes it more obvious he was a great dude.

Zun's dying someday as well, probably pretty early if he ends up opening his dream distillery. I'm not crushed by Billy's death, but it reminds me that even though we try to hang on to the idea of the internet as a separate world people around us will always leave, whether voluntarily by becoming a shitty boring normalfag or involuntarily by dying in a bisexual car crash.

I came to 4Chan very late. I came at around 2010 or so. When Panty and Stocking started airing, I'd only been on 4Chan for a few months. Even to this day, there are some parts of 4Chan's culture that feel esoteric to me. If you weren't there, you'll never understand. With his passing, I feel like that aspect of early 4Chan is a little bit more dead and thus, I feel like I belong here just that little bit more. Truly though, I don't think the chasm will ever close.
