Who the fuck was Anthony Bourdain and why did y'all all act like he was a big loss?

before his death I had coming here for years yet not once ever seen him even mentioned or seen a pic of this dude posted.

wtf.

Had a few travel shows on TV and wrote a book about how fucked restaurants can be awhile back.

Honestly, I think it had to do with the fact that there wasn't anything wrong in his life and he hung himself anyway. He used to be druggie though.

You must have only come here once every 6 months OP.
I recall a thread only a few months before he died and I said that I didn't really care for his style on tv (aka boring) and got a whirlwind of shit bc 'he's so smart and forward thinking'.
He was maybe good listening but I couldn't take his long winded sentences that felt more like diarrhoea spewed from a drug induced man behind a cheap laptop in a cheap hotel room.

and here we see how anecdotes =/= evidence

there have been tons of threads about bourdain over the years, though most were just about shitting on him. He wasn't the greatest but I enjoyed most of his work.

I was actually surprised by how many people I knew cared that he killed himself. My step mom thinks that he was murdered in order to send some kind of message to Elon Musk, and Jay Z is involved some how.

Didn't your dad ever get told not to stick his dick in crazy?

[Anonymous No.10785255]

I guess not, but the thing is that he's been through 3 divorces and it was getting to the point where he just didn't want to die alone.

no reservations was a decently comfy show most of the time, it was interesting to see working kitchens around the world and how similar everything is

he was just one of those dudes who had seen some shit and shared it

he was no jacques pepin or paul prudhomme but he helped shine some light on how fucked up kitchens can be sometimes, although a lot of that has changed in the last 15 years, kitchens can still be super fucked in different ways now.

He was a hardline lefty that an hero'd himself because a roasty made him a cuck.

lol. Ironically I'm the /pol/tard. She just listens to a combination of Alex Jones (to the point where she actually buys the water filters) and christian fundamentalist stuff.

Oh well, at least she doesn't live anywhere near Cali right?
Also you know where you stand with her. Must be a pretty cozy relationship.

Jesus have I learnt a number of truths there. Also now I hate shitskins, niggers and Jews like you wouldn't believe. And rightly so, I might add.

Yeah, that's pretty much my experience with the whole thing. It took me years to accept it but there's no going back now.

There are and it's makes some people fucking crazy. And again she buys all the pills and water filters the dude sells.

Now that I think about it. One time she literally tried to call the secretary of defense to tell him about the Alex Jones shit. A DoD paper pusher had to explain that's not how it works.

There was a guy that parked an armoured car on hoover dam just the other day and demanded the 'real' Hillary Clinton emails.

America has 25-30% of its population that's programmable flesh right now. They're not people, they're flesh robots.

There was a scientific study that said all you need is 20% of a group to think something to tip the rest of the population into it. We're there.

it's usually the ones who love guns and believe stuff like "spicy food is code for white genocide"

2nd amendment was a mistake

This looks like an invitation to "you post facts, I post 16 hours of David Icke links from YouTube"

And then if I refuse to post a point-by-point rebuttal of your deranged nonsense, it means I'm literally committing white genocide

Appreciate the invite to discuss the future of this country but no thanks to that

I went to a website called gunviolencearchive.org that seems reliable enough ebcause they post news and case reports and started checking incidents of 4+ killings from 2016. So far it's roughly 1/3rd black, 1/3rd Hispanic, 1/3rd white, and one guy who immigrated from turkey. None of the incidents really say anything about political leanings.

I don't care about the specifics, you made a claim that maybe ONE OUT OF HUNDREDS or mass shootings is by redneck white incels. I simply do not see that to be true. I made no claim about white genocide at all, asshole. >>10785422 did. Just that you are misrepresenting what group of people is committing gun violence.

Just a dude who tried to make the world a smaller place through cooking and travel and called things as they were.

Bourdain was a rich trust fund kid who became a chef, got hooked on heroin, and eventually settled down as an alcoholic.

Poor guy made the mistake of marrying a CUNT of a white woman who, of course, divorced him, took half his money, his daughter, and was using his child as a weapon to hurt and manipulate him.

Overall, just a sad sap of a man who is given more importance and glory than he deserved.
