Dang: from your link:
In addition to his four nights at the club, the recovering alcoholic had been booked to appear Saturday afternoon at the New York Recovery Rally, billed as an event to "celebrate recovery from addiction."

The news reports say he's in "critical condition." Is he really dead?

We’re in one of the richest countries in the world,
but the minimum wage is lower than it was thirty five years ago.
There are homeless people everywhere.
This homeless guy asked me for money the other day.
I was about to give it to him and then I thought he was going to use it on drugs or alcohol.
And then I thought, that’s what I’m going to use it on.
Why am I judging this poor bastard?
People love to judge homeless guys. Like if you give them money they’re just going to waste it.
Well, he lives in a box, what do you want him to do? Save it up and buy a wall unit?
Take a little run to the store for a throw rug and a CD rack? He’s homeless.

Aw man.

Don't fuck with those pills man. Bad news.

Am I to understand that it wasn't accidental that he ingested all the pills, just that he died?

What a profoundly funny and stupid man.

Die young, leave a scruffy looking corpse.

no sympathy. play with fire, get burned etc..

@5: I keep seeing "accidental" attached to the story. He'll be missed, guy was hilarious.

Goddammit, comedians I like. Quit overdosing on drugs, you fucking assholes.

A real shocker - seemed to be such a reasonable guy and his comedy was based on that reason. Deepest sympathies to his young family.

Also, I'm curious what the pills were. Anti-depressants? After 24 years of working in hospitals with ERs, can you guess how many suicides/attempts I saw using anti-depressants? Obviously, the pills in those cases weren't doing the trick.

Who is Greg Giraldo ???
13
Guess Parlor Live is going to want to change their ad on the right side of Slog advertising a weekend of Greg Giraldo shows next month :(

I thought I liked Greg Giraldo, then I saw the Hasselhoff roast and realized he blew royal ass.
15
That's a shame - not my favorite comic in the world - but he was reliably the funniest out of the "friar" comics and the Colin Quinn crowd.

First Schimmel then Giraldo - who's going to cap off this trio of dead comics?

Glenn Beck

No fucking way! I love GG :( :( :(

Please wait...
