It wasn't a heart attack. Something more random and just all around sad. Evilore will probably say the reason pretty soon

Quote from: Oscar the Grouch on August 07, 2014, 10:33:33 PM

yeah, it wasn't a heart attack. i dare say it wasn't anything even remotely preventable, just one of those boom, lightning bolt deaths.

not that all of these posts aren't good advice.

really curious to hear what happened given these posts.

also i agree with checking up on yourself even if you seem healthy.

I only interacted with him on a few occasions, but I had a lot of respect for the guy. He was often one of the most prominent voices of reason on the forum. Fuck.

Wait, did Hito post here? I'm trying to think he was one of the posters here or not. TVC, right?

Still, sucks.

TVC is White Man. Hope he's ok btw, haven't seen any updates to the vomit journal for awhile.

Edit - just saw him on GAF, phew.

Go to lots of things. You never know. Save up if you can't afford a proper check up.

Just by going to the ER for an unrelated thing I found out I have a liver adenoma from years of oral contraceptives.

These things are usually not malignant but can burst or become tumors.

Wouldn't have known without that CT scan they had me do.

Sorry, I forgot most of you live in a country with third world health care for normal folk. You probably should go now to save yourself money later.

Don't have the motivation to do anything tonight . Hito was one of the guys that made gaf a welcome place, and he kind of acted as animegaf's own protector for a while. Going to really miss him.

He protected NFL Gaf from some of the other mods as well. I used to talk to Hito a lot on IRC. Not as much after I got IRC banned and GAF banned but yeah, I'm still pretty shook up.

I originally made a thread complaining about fansub anime and how they keep words untranslated for weaboo-isms (i.e. keikaku means plans type stuff), and Hito, in all his wit and snark, changed my name to Icehouse because that's what Himuro translates to. So Hito changed my name to that to rib on my threads premise. We laughed, and I posted as it for a while, he gave me shit on irc and stuff. Eventually I got it changed back.

I know this is the "Gaf hate thread" and all, but you don't need to be a scumbag by joking about a guy's death the night the news breaks. It's in incredibly poor taste regardless of your past beef with him.

Ugh. Hito was always remarkably chill and amiable, especially for being online where we tend to be shitty. Just a total calm, stand-up guy as a poster, chatter, admin, Kohan player, etc.

He sent me a copy of Audacity of Hope cause he wanted my take on it and I was bitching about paying for a glorified campaign ad, so in 2010 I sent him a copy of Mitt Romney's book to repay him. Fuck, man.

milchs evil twin · « **Reply #2791 on:** August 08, 2014, 12:17:26 AM »

I never really figured out the reason why he stopped being an admin. I only remember him disagreeing with some fundamental decisions (by Evilore, I guess).
