Thank you for sharing your story. While I don’t have the connection to Anthony that you did, I was still very shocked by the loss, and am sorry that your mentor-from-afar has left the earth much too soon.

I’ve been feeling gutted since yesterday. Even my husband, who shrugs at celebrity deaths, cried over this. It’s tragic and awful, and I don’t understand why he’d leave behind his beloved Ariane. Bourdain was an extraordinary cultural anthropologist, who deduced, correctly, that we can all understand each other…

‘Sup Jezzers, hope y’all are having a smashing weekend.

I’m taking Bourdain’s death hard as well. Not only because I’ve been a fan since Kitchen Confidential, but because the man had a lot of humanity in him.

Yeah me too - I’ve been a mess all day, and I don’t have a specific connection to him other than watching a lot of No Reservations years ago.

Same. My late husband was a huge Anthony Bourdain fan. He had a man crush on him and would have been devastated by today’s news. I don’t know if I believe in heaven, but I like to think that my husband was anxiously waiting at the entrance for Bourdain, ready to ask him a thousand questions and hoping to be his new…

Celebrity deaths never really phase me at all, but Bourdain is something else. His voice was one that said what I needed to hear. I’ll miss his interesting, entertaining and important work.

I’m more than a little surprised at how much Anthony’s death is affecting me. I knew I was a huge fan of his, and my wife jokes about my crush on him whenever we watch Parts Unknown, but I’ve been going back to all the news sites, looking for the articles that help me figure out why I’m so sad at my desk.

What made Bourdain so special is that you don’t even need to fucking pick his life apart to figure out his “motives” or what was happening, because he had already laid it all out. He held absolutely nothing back, especially when it came to his demons. That’s why he’ll be so missed. The fact that his loved ones are…

It’s a tactic to get as many clicks as possible. When people hear the news of his passing some will then begin to wonder about the people in his life and Google them. Notice how the headlines read like Google searches? If they can put an article out for each person in his life they can maximize the number of distinct…

Apparently Newsweek wants to become the go-to magazine for people who find The National Enquirer too challenging a read.

Reason to not seek fame: as soon as you die, everyone tries to pick apart who you were, question your life’s work and motivations.

Suicide rate is high in America because Trump has brought darkness over America.

I’m absolutely floored by this news. As tragic as it is to say, I’m almost hoping that it turns out accidental, because it’s hard to wrap my head around someone with such verve for life, purposely taking their own. Depression can be insidious and sometimes hidden. I’ve been there myself.

Man, it’s like a huge part of my youth just fucking blinked out.

TIL a 2005 Ford Mustang is considered a “luxury car”. Do they also confuse a 2010 BMW with a Bentley?

All because you’re too intellectually and mentally immature to have a real discussion and just want to throw shit against a wall.

My mistake, I should have looked at your comment history, you’re just a troll. Good luck with your journey of continuing to be an asshole, I have a feeling you will excel at it.

Uh, no, both cannot “apply fine.” “Female” is an adjective, not a noun. You can say, “We are all led by female humans now,” and that would be fine. If you were to just say, “I know a female,” that wouldn’t mean anything. Female what? Female dog? Female cat? Female ostrich? Adjectives modify the noun, this is basic…
