All my feels. Graham Chapman was taken away from us much too early and now we are doomed to watch another icon fade away and die.

Well, fuck.

 

[chainer]

He got better.

 

[Splendid]

He got better.

I hope he puts this on his tombstone.

Agreed.

It's odd because I was saying to my boyfriend after we lost Alan Rickman earlier this year about how I hoped none of the remaining Pythons died or fell ill.

So what you're saying is that you jinxed it.

In all seriousness though, I'm pretty done with this year. 2016 is like the year of death and disease.

Shit, probably.

I too, am done with this year.
