After seeing that video, I feel pretty bad about this comment/picture. I mean, this kid had a whole life ahead of him and he just died. So full of energy and just to be ended by alclohol and a train. Well, at least the picture was fun to make.

Rest in Peace Connor

Awesome sig made by EvilJesus! :D

Sorry about that dude. And ignore all of these attention-whore assholes who feel like they can diss someone whos dead. If theyre okay with doing that then its their problem.

Sorry for your loss.

You guys don't even realize that the OP didn't even know the guy.

So this isn't a "loss" for him.

People on the internet are assholes, that's basically it. They find some sort of bizzare enjoyment making fun and jokes and some kid who got ran over by a train. It's quite sad really what the world has come to, or at least, a large internet community.

I know you didn't know him, but I'm sorry for the loss, not necessarily a loss for you. But more of a loss to his parents and other friends he looked like he was a nice, enthusiastic kid and might have had a real future.

Quotes from comments.

The saddest moment for Connor was not finding out Santa wasn't real, but finding out trains are.

Connor's tears cure cancer. Too bad he's dead.

Connor can speak train.

Touching Chuck Norris' beard will increase you life expectancy by 6 years. Unfortunately, this does not apply to Connor.

He should have barrelrolled.

Roses are red
Voilets are blue.
Connor youre dead
And we're laughing at you.

Evil, but kinda funny. I mean, it's offensive, but hey, it's kinda amusing.

That's the sad thing about the internet. There is no sympathy to be found here. The internet is an unforgiving, cruel, and unsympathetic son of a bitch. But in this case, it's expectable, really, because think about it: Connor may be known in your school, but not every single living person in the world knows him personally so naturally, there is little to no sympathy among complete strangers on the internet. If this was a celebrity that everyone knew and loved, that would be a different story and no one would joke about it. Example: Dimebag Darrell: one of the greatest metal guitarists of all time; got shot by some lunatic while performing. Look up the Youtube videos that relate to his death and read the comments. Notice lack of jokes. To most people, Connor is just some kid so they start making jokes about his death. Though I understand why there's no sympathy, it still sickens me to know that people can be this mean and heartless.

Music should be an art from the heart, not something for the mart.
Music is like Chinese food; the longer it sticks around, the more interesting it gets.

Now this is the story all about how a train gone flipped me upside down
I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there, and%uFEFF I'll tell you how that train sent me into the air.

In the state of New York born and raised on the train track where I spent most of my days
Chillin out max relaxing all cool, not listening for trains as I made my way to school..

When a train conductor who was up to no good, started driven trains through my neighbor hood.

The last comment reply was golden, the rest were failures.

To be honest, we can't blame society, blame the idiot for walking on the train-track. It's no excuse, drunk or not, and shouldn't be getting a huge amount of sympathy.

Sorry if this makes me seem like every other asshole posting a comment, but I have no patience for the moronic.

People need to stop treating death as if it was sacred. Yes, someone died, but people die every damn day. It's not special. When people die from doing something exceedingly dumb, then it is special, and we all have a big laugh about it and are thankful that we're not foolish enough to do that. Think of me what you will, but if you've ever laughed at one of the "Darwin awards", then you're no better than I.

You got a good point, but if put in the same situation , I'd imagine you'd want sympathy to help deal with loss.

The comments are funny as shit. The fact that someone young died like that isn't at all. I don't really relate the comments to the person, I just read them for there comedic value. Its fucked up, but that's the internet.

watch anime for free =) Thank me later.
