So Rich Daddy Richard Pryor died last night. Only term to describe it is Shitbuzz. To me the man was a comedic legend. Easily in the top 10 of greats. Up there with Lenny Bruce, Bill Hicks, Sam Kinison, George Carlin and at most 6 more. I would have to put Pryor in there. The man had an insane ability to make anything funny. A simple facial jesture, flick of the wrist or observational comment and I would be on the floor. He was dying of MS he knew this and yet he kept on trying to educate the world with his comedic brilliance. I am deeply pissed off at his loss.
'Comedy rules! Don't let anybody tell you otherwise, and there are no rules in stand-up comedy, which I really like. You can do anything you want and you can say anything that comes to mind - just so long as it's funny. If you ain't funny then get the fuck off the stage, it's that simple.'

He even made Superman 3 a lot less pathetic than it should have been

It was Multiple Sclerosis. He had a part on Chicago Hope playing a guy suffering from MS. That was a fucked up episode. Television makes me cry.

He had been diagnosed with MS for a long time and had been slowly but surely getting worse. Didnt help that a few of his 7 wives were cuntbags who were just fucking him over and robbing fro him. Fucking cunts. People wish bad things on em!!! But he finally suffered a fatal heart attack on Saturday evening.
