RIP Dustin Diamond, AKA Screech

[Thread]

I thought they left him out because he was a complete cunt and said horrible things about other cast members over the years.

Pretty sure that's the reason too.

If anyone ever watched Celebrity Fit Club with Dustin Diamond, it was incredible. He was a complete asshole and out of his mind as a contestant. Literally trying to fight the judges on the show. Highly recommended

That being said, RIP.

Also, is Lisa Turtle fair game now?

She still looks decent with makeup

Damn I just found because of this thread.

Rip d.d

. The actor/comedian went to the hospital after feeling pain all over his body after finding a lump in his throat. Diamond reportedly found the lump in October, but was hesitant to visit a doctor due to the public health crisis.

Already too late at that point

I'm seeing a lot of news articles of people dying young, and frankly, it's starting to terrify me.

Everyone says they're not afraid to die until they're staring right at it

 

[Mondo Freaks]

Was Dustin a smoker? Can’t find any info on it. Doesn’t seem like it.

 

[Archie Goodwin]

That was me. Scary AF

 

[Kforcer]

Lol now everybody cares

so many dicks out there

It's being a dick to mourn or reflect on someone's passing...?

 

[Archie Goodwin]

I’m sure he acted the cunt to stay in the spotlight. The rest were at least good looking. He was fucking Screech, ffs. Ain’t nobody lining up to put him in shit. How else is a guy like the supposed to act to keep his name of any relevance whatsoever in Hollywood? It’s really quite pathetic, actually. The stuff faded stars so to try to be relevant again

Maybe I'm just being cynical
I know for a fact though most were looking down on him when he was alive now everyone and their mom is coming out and acting like they're sad

I'll tell you who must be feeling awkward about all of this now

His former cast mates

Damn. RIP. For a certain generation he was kind of an iconic figure of the 90s. First off 44 is real young. Second, that quick diagnosis to passing scenario is a stark reminder to everyone about not taking things for granted.

I hear what you're saying and you undeniably have a point.

Ideally, while someone is alive, people should be able to look past their flaws and acknowledge what's good in them. But hey, unfortunately, we often need death to give us that appreciation and to give us perspective on how petty our complaints about someone were when measured against the things that made them special. I think it's at least better to honor someone in their passing and bury or at least soften whatever negative sentiments you formerly held against them, than to figuratively spit on their grave.

But I mean, yeah, I hear where you're coming from.

I guess her and Mario Lopez got along with Dustin Diamond better than the rest of the cast did. Him being younger than the rest of them must have made for an awkward dynamic in some ways.

 

[DaleBoca]

I just realized Tiffani Amber looks like she could be Alexandra Daddario older sister.

 

[TestosterOWN]

Does stage 4 mean he was ripping packs of cigs a day or what? Still sad either way.

 

[fordman7795]

My wife met him when he stopped for a comedy tour at her college. Rip Samuel

 

[Jack Reacheround]

Wow. That was unexpected. I definitely thought he would be one of those guys who lived to be 110.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

Not even sure why they try to treat stage 4 upon discovery. Just hand them a bottle of bourbon, a bag of coke and 20k and tell them to enjoy the last few months

 

[TheMaster]

I thought the same thing. I guess he was holding the information for a while from the public.

RIP

No, he only found out himself less than a month ago and it was already stage 4.
Cancer can come surprisingly and kill quick sometimes.
