Whoever started the rumour that Napoleon Dynamite died is in big trouble with me...

Okay, I just feel the need to rant about this...

The other day I was on the Gaia Online forums and someone posted an article that Jon Heder (the guy who played Napoleon Dynamite) had died either in a car crash or from a drug overdose. The source looked legit so I immediately went into overdrive and was about to go mourn, until later I found that it was just an intricate rumour started by some idiot last month. My sadness turned into anger and, you know, the dark side started to pour out...

Man, I was so mad, it wasn't even funny. People who start these rumours are lame. They just want to make people go insane for no reason (kind of like those people who troll in the JC).

Snopes.com is your friend.

 

"Snopes.com is your friend."

Yeah, that's where I went to see that it was, in fact, just a rumour.

 

Don't you know how stupid the people on Gaia are? The majority age is about 11.

 

"Don't you know how stupid the people on Gaia are?"

Yeah, I realised that. Now I only go on there because my friend wants me to be a mod at her guild. And basically the only thing I discuss in the forums now is ROTS...

 

And I go there to feel better about myself. I'm a sad, sad person.

 

I started the rumor.

Please dont hurt me.

 

Yeah, we all know the only recent celebrity death is Natalie Portman's.

If you get seriously upset or something about a celeberty's death, you need to rethink some things...

IJG, i really like your new icon!!!!!!!!!!

 

Guaranteed he isn't dead because we here in Arkansas are having him at UCA. He's speaking there. TV won't shut up about it.

Maybe thats what they meant be he's dead... he's in Arkansas... hmm...

I agree with JediTrilobite. Don't get that worked up about it.

 

Wasn't there a thread about this earlier this week?

 

Who the hell is Napoleon Dynamite?

You are very lucky to not know the answer to that. I wish I didn't know either. It was a really bad movie.

 

I've got it on Netflix for tonight. I am not getting my hopes up to far!

 

It's not like it'd be a majour life-changing event for me, I was just ranting about how lame it was for people to mess with celebrities' lives and make up false rumours. It doesn't matter who the actor is (it seems like most people who replied don't care about Napoleon Dynamite at all, and to each his own I guess) but I just felt like getting it out of my system, that's all. I didn't mean to make my post sound like I was overreacting.
