Either way, why does the specificity of his sadness level matter anyways
It's not a level of sadness. He said beyond sad. That's not sad. It's even worse.
If that were true I wouldn't say shite. But the simple fact that he's in this thread proves he's being a little dramatic and a lot hyperbolic.

For fricks sake you people are exhausting with your snark and absolute need for conflict and desire to argue about anything.

True. Good point. I'm probably using the anonymity of this forum to gripe about a personal pet peeve I would never vocalize in person.
Like when someone says "I couldn't live without my (insert person)". You can't say anything there. But cmon. That's biologically incorrect haha. People die all the time and their family members don't just drop dead.

Apparently he wasn't that nice of a guy. Racist, anti-semitic, bad father, bad husband,..he was good at maths though.

I mean he suffered from serious mental illness, that usually goes hand in hand with those things

The guys overstimulated mind made him think he was being sought out as a double inverted communist spy...
I think that gives him a pass...

Let's not jump to blaming the driver; sounds like they died bc they weren't wearing seat belts.
The root cause is definitely because they were involved in a wreck..no wreck, no die.

What happens when people you actually know well die? Are you catatonic?
Depends on the situation, older people dying that have led full and fulfilling lives is one thing, to see one of your hero's go by way of car accident go is different for me.

You met him a few times and you are "beyond sad"?
He was a icon and role model for many people in our area, so sad to see our small town's biggest icon go.

maybe they just ignored the sines to buckle up.
There is no way they would have ignored the cosines though.
