So sad :(

I don’t get it.
In his memoir, he made multiple disparaging remarks pointed at Keanu. I believe wishing for his death.
Keanu said he had absolutely no Idea where the aggression was coming from.
Instead of addressing why he would wish death on Keanu, he just edited the comments out of copies published moving forward.
Is it true he drowned in his jacuzzi? Really hard to believe
Apparently his jacuzzi was massive, like the size of a small swimming pool.
Stroke or heart attack (or shooting up after a long tolerance break) alone in a body of water has an immediate cause of death of drowning.
The cause of the immediate cause of death isn’t known until autopsy.
Says it was after he was playing pickleball, so I’m guessing heart attack.
Hot Tubs feel great, but they wreak havoc on the circulatory system.
Spike your blood pressure something fierce.
Googled it, hot tubs temporarily lower blood pressure.
Soaking in a bathtub or basking in a sauna can be a pleasant way to relax. Done on a regular basis, both habits may also help prevent heart attacks and strokes, according to several studies.
“The high temperatures in a warm tub or sauna cause your blood vessels to dilate, which lowers blood pressure,” says Dr. Adolph Hutter, professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. The volume of blood your heart pumps will also rise, especially in a hot tub. That’s a result of the pressure of the water on the body, which increases the heart’s workload, he explains.

So actually comprehending this, if that is what I’m doing, the heat is causing your body to do what it does when your blood pressure is spiking, but since you are in a body of water, the weight of the water is changing the atmospheric pressure on the the body, and nets to lower blood pressure.
Heat is making the heart pump harder, and the blood move faster, but the atmospheric pressure is dilating the blood cells, resulting in net lower PB.
Kinda sounds like “wreaking havoc on the circulatory system”. Same as rigorous exercise weeks havoc on the circulatory system.
Overdo stress on the circulatory system, get heart attack or stroke.
Sounds like it’s not as simple as I thought it was.
Pretty sure I’m still pretty accurate on the “wreaks havoc” part.
You are not
Okay hot tub salesman.
Indeed, hot baths are so harmful to your health, which is one of the reasons why the Japanese have one of the shortest lifespans on the planet - it’s because of those daily hot baths and onsen that they partake in.
What a dipshit argument.
Ya, if you run 5 miles a day every day, you’re gonna be in great shape.
If you snort mountains of coke and eat cake without any exercise for 20 years and then force yourself to run for 5 miles, you’re going to blow your heart out.
Recent studies say for most people, a half hour in the hot tub is the equivelent of a half hour run. It is intense on the circulatory system.
If you are saying Mathew Perry had the diet and physical activity level, and hence the circulatory system of a 54 year old Japanese man, then youvare a dipshit.

Aw man. Even the main Seinfeld cast is still around.
Shows what substance abuse does I guess. RIP
The Courier has finally caught up with Benny. Rest in peace.
I have a question for native english speakers. I’ve read the TMZ article and they keep using the ellipses aka the “dot dot dot” (…). Why is that? It’s usually used when skipping words inside quotations, but it does not seem to be the case here. They seem to be used instead of commas. Anyone can explain why?
It’s also used for dramatic pause, suspense, or as a setup for a punchline, which may be the case for the title. Other punctuation is probably more appropriate, but oftentimes doesn’t convey the desired level of pause.
Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side. Why did the chicken cross the road… To get to the other side.
David Carradine was found dead in Thailand from auto erotic asphyxiation.
David Carradine was found dead in Thailand… From auto erotic asphyxiation
Even as a native English speaker that doesn’t make any sense.
Trash news sources have trash grammar. Go figure.
This is an odd article. Reads like it was written by AI.
The ellipses usage is definitely strange.
I would say you could use it as a pause for thought, or to imply to the reader to draw their own conclusion, or that there is additional unwritten information left up to the reader to deduce or use their imagination.
It certainly feels weird the way they use it in this article.
Yes, it’s pretty strange…
Odd even…
Might be an AI generated article
It’s definitely not normal. Ellipses can be used for pausing too. But you are right the kinds of pauses in this article requires, commas would suffice. Almost makes it seem jokey and disrespectful to read it out with the ellipses pauses.
People are saying AI but I believe it’s more of a template. When a celebrity dies the first article out has a huge advantage for getting clicks. They might’ve quickly added details to the template and posted without deleting the ellipses.
Looking at other articles, it looks like abusing the ellipses is something they do frequently
That’s long been TMZ style. Like drudge report.
Now that I think about it, it’s actually my first time reading a TMZ piece. Looking at other articles, it does seem to be a thing they do pretty frequently. Weird!
Could he be any more dead?
^im sorry^
Samesies.
I gotta be honest, this is the first thing that came to my mind when I read he had passed away.
