Another hilarious comedian dies.
Not quite as "feel good" as Robin was, but a very funny lady, and by all accounts very kind in person.
RIP Joan Rivers, you will be missed.

Edit:
If you want to see some of her, in a format she'd appreciate, here's her Comedy Central Roast:

What's with the comedians passing away all of a sudden?

Eh, we lose a few every year.
It's a bummer, one of the sadder celebrity deaths in my opinion since their business is laughter.

They're dying of laughter *shot*

Actually, looking back, we have lost a shitload of comedians this year.
Sid Ceasar, David Brenner, John Pinette, Robin Williams, and now Joan Rivers.

I remember her winning The Apprentice against Annie Duke. It was pretty intense.

RIP

Yeah, John Pinnette and Robin Williams were definitely the biggest two for me. I grew up with Robin, and the first traditional stand up routine I ever saw was by John. Very sad.

shes gonna kill people again with laughter wherever she is
r.i.p.

I've heard of her before, but I know nothing about her. All I do know is that I see equal parts people hating on her and equal parts praising her.

She's not afraid to offend with her jokes, she says what she thinks is funny, and is very crass, without her there would be no Bo Burnham or Daniel Tosh.
She also pioneered the role of women in comedy, because up to that point, the women in comedy were basically all Lucille Balls, and played the "dumb housewife" role.

Good riddance.

I approve of this. :3

And yes, another celebrity has left us on this Earth. Hopefully not much laughter and smiles will disappear with her...
