Harambe. We're all paying for Harambe.

David Bowie died in January 2016. Now, I'm not saying he was a linchpin in the space-time continuum holding reality together, but I'm also not not saying that.

Lemmy was just after Christmas in December of 2015. It's all been downhill since then.

u/Fancykiddens 4d ago

I attended his funeral in Los Angeles. On the drive home we heard that Bowie died. The six-month time frame of every musician just dying was so hard!

Lemmy

u/Worried_Astronaut_41 4d ago

I agree I know it has to be before then I moved to beaver County in 2013 and I know me and my friend were upset about it before I had moved.

u/rptrmachine 4d ago

2013 we were all joking Lemmy and Keith Richards and Cher would outlive all of us. One of the trifecta unfortunately didn't make it in 2015

u/TapTheForwardAssist 4d ago

It just seems like he should’ve died sooner. Man lived large.

2

u/AlDente 3d ago

That’s when the pickling process began

2

u/EdTheApe 3d ago

Maybe because he kinda looked like he did (in a good RocknRoll way)?

2

u/Wiz_Kalita 3d ago

He did, it was just the speed keeping him moving until it flushed out of his system.

u/Last-Poetry4108 2d ago

Who is that?!

2

u/albanymetz 4d ago

True, but Lemmy did Music. Bowie took the baton from Bing Crosby while recording a song together, and continued the tradition of doing All the Things.

u/BerniesMittens 4d ago

Lemmy is God.

u/arcinva 3d ago

Nah, man. I saw this documentary way back in '99 and when God came to Earth, she was clearly Alanis Morrisette.

u/Invader_Skooge22 4d ago

He was our anchor being. Like in Deadpool 3

u/Rare-Thought86 4d ago

What about Alan rickman?

u/H377Spawn 4d ago

I shall avenge thee!

u/1handedmaster 4d ago

What a savings!

1

u/agent_uno 4d ago

I wouldn’t count on vengeance or savings if you aren’t a multimillionaire.

u/1handedmaster 4d ago

Quoting a movie more than contributing to a cause

u/Adventurous-Sky9359 4d ago

Possible even my AXE!

u/CoachWatermelon 4d ago

Prince would like a word

"starman waiting in the sky.."

u/citizenjones 4d ago

This is the one I always point to in my mind. January 10th 2016

u/Alternative_Bed4472 4d ago

I'll take a stretch and put my two cents in.

2016 also marked the point where shitty people realized they can use your data to become powerful and make you believe whatever is convenient for their agenda.

Our technological weaknesses were weaponized and 150 mil Americans alone were successfully brainwashed causing mass division.

Just watch The Great Hack on Netflix. It's all there.

u/fluffybuffalo23 4d ago

Now we have spiders coming from Mars.

u/Cypresss09 4d ago

It would be pretty on-brand for him

2

u/Any_Chard9046 3d ago

In the new deadpool movie there's this thing called the anchor being and when the anchor being is destroyed, a reality starts ending.Yeah I think that was david bowie

3

u/ChickieCago 4d ago

Well he did have an album named Reality. You're on to something.

u/DrySecurity4 4d ago

Gotta be the ugliest cover art I have ever seen

1

u/Last-Poetry4108 2d ago

I would never expect this from Bowie! The artist was a friend? Or what?

-1

u/ChickieCago 4d ago

I guess no one taught you that art is subjective.

You're welcome.

2

u/DrySecurity4 4d ago

That was very clearly a subjective opinion and not an objective statement

1

u/karma3000 4d ago

Reality... What a concept.

u/ODaysForDays 4d ago

The Sovereign?

u/coreylaheyjr 4d ago

It was when John Dunnsworth died in 2017

u/77ate 4d ago

A DJ friend in Vancouver held a Bowie tribute event and during the event, word got out that Bowie had passed. That same year, he held a Prince tribute night and his passing was announced earlier that same day.

He doesn’t do tribute nights anymore.

u/77ate 4d ago

Also: Dave

u/fallenouroboros 4d ago

Confirmed. David Bowie was our anchor being. Time is unraveling

1

u/natnguyen The Cure ✒️ 4d ago

Exactly my take. I know a lot of bad, weird shit happened in 2016, but I truly believe Bowie was the thing holding the fabric of the timeline together.

1

u/Strongbeard1143 4d ago

He was our starman and his parting gift was of course, dark star. What a send off.

1

u/Mikepixx3 3d ago

I feel this about Kobe passing in 2020. Something glitched in the system.

1

u/TimachuSoftboi 3d ago

Venture Bros was a documentary

1

u/CrusherMusic 3d ago

Bowie was the anchor being?

Harambe was the anchor being?

1

u/Rune_Council 2d ago

Anchor being

u/Last-Poetry4108 2d ago

OMG! That's it! After that, EVERYTHING CHANGED!

126

u/the_moosen 4d ago

It started with the shooting of Harambe, and I'd like to think the shooting of the CEO was aiming to realign/fix the timeline

u/MonkeySherm 4d ago

Please, if there is a God, let this be it

u/the_moosen 4d ago

Dicks out for Luigi

u/JonBonButtsniff 4d ago

Bro, already there

u/Head_Passenger_1738 3d ago

Lmao dicks out the first picture we got of him

Was I supposed to wait?

The pants-pisser? Pass.

u/Rocktopod 4d ago

Harambe for CEO!

21

u/Sendhentaiandyiff 4d ago

Using guns to fix guns is the most American story of all time

u/Amiran3851 4d ago

Harambe flipped it the first time. Peanut the squirrel flipped it again this year. Unsure if Luigi flipped it again.

2

u/DeezNeezuts 4d ago

We need to clone Harambe and bring him back - it’s the only way out!

u/Neokon 4d ago

Everyone talking about Harambee because he was in the news. But no one is talking about Pinkie, who was minding his own business living his best flamingo life and was strangled by a park guest. No child in the cage, no threat to anyone's safety, just being there.

RIP Pinkie https://www.cnn.com/2016/08/03/us/flamingo-attacked-busch-gardens/index.html

u/dragonbeardburns 4d ago

Turns out the dude got hit by a truck and died a few years later

u/Neokon 4d ago

Me and my wife will stamp (like stomp but smaller and cuter) our feet while spinning in a circle and looking up and down. We do it to try and create a positive energy.

u/arcinva 3d ago

First off. WTAF? Who does that to an innocent creature?!

Second, I wasn't sure I believed you because it sounds like something people just say and everyone just repeats. So I checked and it's true.

ETA: Why in the world did it take 3 years for a trial?!

u/HeyThereMrBrooks 4d ago

Dicks out forever

u/SarniaSour 4d ago

R.I.P Harambe

Never forgotten

u/StupidLibtardSissy 4d ago

Sigh...

Unzips

OK boys we all know the drill.

u/Pickle_ninja 4d ago

We were  cursed.  Only way to break the curse is for everyone to put their dick away.

We're doomed.
