"No More Games. No More Bombs. No More Walking. No More Fun. No More Swimming. 67. That is 17 years past 50. 17 more than I needed or wanted. Boring. I am always bitchy. No Fun — for anybody. 67. You are getting Greedy. Act your old age. Relax — This won't hurt."
Final words of the one-of-a-kind visionary, Dr. Thompson.
What an awesome funeral.I'm glad he got exactly what he wanted and that it was executed the way he wanted right down to the last detail.Johnny Depp was truly a good friend for making sure it got done right! R.I.P. Hunter Stockton Thompson.You were one of a kind and you'll be missed by all of your fans!
we miss you brother! one of the most interesting people i ever came across.i hope you found some fun somewhere.thanks Johnny Depp for being such a cool human being.
It is just sooooooo refreshing that we had this man alive when we are alive! I feel touched that he was able to share his thoughts (at times weird as im sure he realised) with us all! RIP Hunter! Gone but never forgotten!
RIP Thompson you will be missed, and i gotta say but I actually felt like crying for a second. Oh and that was the greatest funeral I have ever seen In my life. :D
@Perseusishere Johnny stills doing good work, a nice person, he buyed coats for everybody on Pirates of the Caribbean 4.. there was a man with a big heart :)
WOW did slipknot555133, and Lynchstah really have an argument over youtube about hunter s thompson...... To be fair, I want to point out that the amount of time and effort you BOTH put into that was disheartening. "grow up" "NO, you grow up" "no you"....ect. Come on guys.... I mean really....Even if it is hunter s., let's try and show a little respect on a video of his funeral. Would you argue like little girls at an actual funeral? I know I am going to get hate for this. So in advance, *&% off.
Si Bush pudo ser presidente de los EE.UU, estoy seguro que el señor Hunter S Thompson, lo hubiera hecho mucho mejor. Esto lo digo por los ASSHOLES neocons que tanto le insultan.
Hunter did the only decent thing,he blew his brains OUT ,as a true adventurisst,a long time Kerouac Fan,a supporter of motorcycle adventures,whether real or in his head,reality can be a reminder that whatever the mammon, read material gives your imagination,it will never meet your standards,Hunter knew that,hats off to him a man for his time,now I wonder !
Breath deep indeed...Absorb the great sick man in all his glory. He's just enough of a stark raving bastard to wreak havoc in your lungs with cancer and cigarette burns. Here is your Hunter, when comes such another?
Hunter Thompson wasn't stupid enough to fawn for turdbama. He doesn't suck on the repub dem media controlled titty. Google: Hunter S Thomspon - Johnny Gosch connection, he was said to have been going to Bohemian Grove with Paul Bonacci to make a snuff film. He knew quite a bit, and Noreen Gosch has commented on these points. Google Hunter S thompson, johnny noreen gosch, snuff film, and you'll find the rabbit hole entrance. Or just be cowardly unread sheep, but Hunter would be ashamed of you.
maybe people should just read his books....where he wrote them instead of reading what some random person posted on the internet...i doubt Thompson would want us believing half the stuff posted about him on the internet.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Somehow I doubt this doped out loser would give a crap about the stuff said about him on the internet (or anywhere else for that matter) ... were he still alive that is.
why the fuck would you reply to my comment...why the fuck would you go to one of his videos just to be all pissed off haha thats like me going to a fall out boy song and bing like wow these guys suck..im so cool now because i just made everyone mad haha..i just dont get it haha
"why the fuck", "why the fuck"?!? Nice vocabulary. Also sad to see you have next to no comprehension skills. No where in my post am I "all pissed off". You said you doubt he'd want us believing blahblahblah. I said I doubt he'd give a crap about what's said about him... which includes ME calling him a doped out loser in a meaningless post on one of a bazillion internet sites.
the only part that really made sense is this comment was the beginning and i could really care less because your actually probably some dropout who barely made it to a community college and now thinks hes a genius..im not going to talk like some prissy faggot. and im pretty sure hunter s thompson would care..you know nothing about him so just stop talking about him, you can message me if you really want to talk because right now your just being immature looking for attention.
So says the 13 yr old foul mouthed kid who is needs to put on the Internet Tough Guy suit in order to make his posts feel substantial. Go back to making 'clever' videos with shoes.
Hunter was doped out but hardly genius. Stay in school kid, you've still got a LOT to learn.
is that all you can fucking do is like go hey look what he said there im going to make funof him for it...like jesus christ your so god damn original right? and no im almost 17..and those "foul" worlds are just words to better express my feeling so you should feel pretty hated right now lol..and the shoes video was just a sneak preview to 23 other videos most better then that i made that video at like 4 in the morning
Hating someone because you don't agree with what they've said on a meaningless website? All that does is confirm about what I said. you have a lot to learn, and obvioiusly a LOT of growing up to do too.
i was actually joking..but what am i saying everyone knows you have the best sense of humor right? with your big boy spelling and your big boy "comprehension" gosh your so smart when i do grow up..which i hope is soon so i can maybe start dating and having sex i want to be just like you telling people off then telling them to grow up..."Have a nice life" oh snapp he went there haha
Well, I am still plenty pissed off at him. There are no other people like him or, at least, in the position to be like him. I could not pull off the shit that he did and get away with it, let alone get paid for it. I can write as well as he did but I could not do the crap. No way. So, I have been pissed off at him ever since he pulled the trigger. What a punk loser. What a selfish, godless twit. Left when the country needed him most. Three years or so later, still pisses me off. Motherfucker.
there is also the theory that he was killed. He said the night before to a friend that he was working on a new story about 9/11 and also the Gay Prostitution ring in the White house and he stated they may kill him over it.
No, he was in the next room from his family who hear the gunshot but thought it was something falling. Then they went to check on him and found his body.
If you were as talented as Hunter, you'd stop bitching about it on fucking Youtube, write something brilliant like "Fear and Loathing" or "Hells Angels: A Strange and Terrible Saga". Get on it you swine. Go and change our world. If it's in you, it's in you. You'll never get anywhere just bitching and laying yourself to idols who did what they needed to do. C'mon, move us man. (I hope you see the positive suggestion in this kid.) Get over it "motherfucker". Move us all. God speed. :)
Fuck you! He killed himself because he was dying not because he was unhappy or messed up! He just didn't want his family to watch him die in agony. You would have done the same thing. Stfu and do your research before you go insulting one of the greatest, albiet misunderstood thinkers of our age.
its well documented that by the time he turned 50 he'd kill himself with a shotgun, his funeral was planned with all details taken care off. There was no secret service or sinister motives behind this mans death, he commited suicide,so stop with the daft theories, its not like the secret service was influnced or bothered by Gonzo, hes was nuts thats it...a genius but insane so leave it at that.
Na he was not dying. He did not want to live anymore. He was unable to come to terms with his getting old. It was his decision. He was exhibiting some erratic behavior but that could have been contrived as a joke by him. I mean I am getting older and I wish I had his strength. But he was upset over his age and his physical pain compounded his unhappiness. He was young at heart in an aging body so he did it. That's all.
Well, fuck you, too, of course. I don't frankly give a shit why he pulled the trigger. I have been pissed off at him ever since he did it and, likely, I will always be pissed off at him for killing himself. He would be pissed off at himself, if he was still here. He left when he was most needed. Had he waited until now, I could understand it but his timing stunk. I kind of go with the murder theory. The gay prostitution ring in the republican White House was a sensitive issue. Probably more ex
i know man, imagine if he was still alive, he'd be commenting on the presedential campaign and the changing politics, and the crisis and shit, that would be so interesting, you kno, to hear his opinions. i really wonder what he'd say about obama...
Hunter has more grace, originality and wit than most writers because he was defiant first, and "devious" second...or, rather, deviousness is something born out of those who possess a free spirit. He chose how to live and when to die, and you can't get more independent than that!!! His unparalleled vices saved him from oblivion.
There will never be another of his kind again, the world would never allow it. Like all the great fighters of free thought and radical ideas, nature can only provide so many - there are limits. So with a heavy heart and a teary eye, I raise a glass and sigh; "Make way, Lord, we send you another true Buffalo." Richards is now the last.
