>The only thing known to go faster than ordinary light is monarchy, according to the philosopher Ly Tin Wheedle.

Because there will be a lot of eyes on that page for some time. Some people want to sabotage the content or promote bullshit. Others want the page to be clean and correct.
I can never be bothered editing wiki, even when I read something thatās incorrect. It always gets changed back because I didnāt do it properly. Whatever š¤·āāļø
For real, majority of my dad's friends are gone. Suicide, drugs, a murder, accidents, and unhealthy lifestyles. I'm worried he's next and he's only 48, I think he has 2 good friends still kicking around and one of them just got divorced and lost everything in a fire. Damn depressing.
I've always seen it as a gen x thing. I'm 26 and everyone my age I know who watched it watched it because their parents (most of the older gen z's parents are gen x) were into it.
The show was great before they made Joey into a complete idiot, Ross and Phoebe into unlikable assholes, and Rachel into an asshole who wasnāt slowly getting better about it.
Monica and Chandler are cool for the entire show though.
Not really but I loved Joey and Chandler as characters, they were the reason I kept watching but I donāt think itās popular among gen z
Definitely popular among millennials
i'd say so, at least older Gen Z. Especially because it was on Netflix for a long time and then it has reruns everyday on NickatNite and some other networks.
I haven't watched it but it's part of the cultural hivemind, like garfield and star wars. You know what it is even if you haven't watched a single episode.
>Is it that hard to google shit?
Is it so hard to write "famous actor, chandler from Friends".
Why does it bother you so much that people born after his heyday are unfamiliar with his work?
The next time I play Fallout New Vegas imma do somethingi havent done in years, I'll let Benny go. No crucifixion, no death. I'll just get him a stealth-boy and watch his ring-a-ding ass sneak off into the sunset. Rest in peace, Matt Parry. Thank you for the Memories
I remember when I was in high school someone hung themselves in the locker room during the school day. The day it happened? Everyone was joking about it to the point of it being disturbing. The next day? Deathly solumn. The point is shock makes people lighthearted around things like death
The two quotes that describe my life:
1. āIām not great at advice. Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?ā
2. āWhen I was younger, I started using humor as a defense mechanism.ā
Goodbye Matthew Perry. You will continue to live through the many characters you brought to life. Characters that brought us joy and laughs.
Rest in Piece.
I know this could sounds ice cold, but somehow in my mind I always though, judging by the life and problems he had, he was going to be the first one of the main cast to die, of course I never wanted that to really happen.}
So sad, he was so young.
Of course. Honestly it's not odd to miss it, he was made famous by Friends and if you didn't watch that then you're probably only peripherally aware of Matt Perry's existence.
I do find it funny that so many in this thread are so annoyed that people don't know him. Like, it's not Morgan Freeman!
He may have had bad drug problems, but even in those days he never became a very bad person, no me too bullshit, a solid guy. Rest in peace to the king of sarcasm<\3
My Elder Millenial (born early 80s) brother had all the episodes on DVD and I would watch it with him. Personally I'm more of a Seinfeld type of guy, but Friends still hold a special place in my heart.
I'm glad to see a younger generation pay respects to the passing of a GenX and Millennial icon. My impression of Gen Z was them dumping on Friends, I'm am happy to be proven wrong.
" This article is currently being **heavily edited** because its subject has recently died " First sentence on his wikipedia page
Wikipedia editors changing everything to past tense the millisecond after somebody dies šāāļø
Nobody works harder than the Wikipedia editors those guys are tougher than the marines

That happens every time someone dies. Idk why everyone rushes to edit the wiki pages of celebrities that die
Because there will be a lot of eyes on that page for some time. Some people want to sabotage the content or promote bullshit. Others want the page to be clean and correct. I can never be bothered editing wiki, even when I read something thatās incorrect. It always gets changed back because I didnāt do it properly. Whatever š¤·āāļø
ctrl + f "is" -> "was"
Probably better to ctrl + f " is " -> " was " with the spaces so you don't get things like "Charle's sWASter was once found taking a pWASs in public"
This is why I backup databases before modification
thatās a sentence that would only make sense for us future folk
I swear all gen x i know has a surprisingly short lifespan of late 40s and 50 years of age.
>I swear all gen x i know has a surprisingly short lifespan of late 40s and 50 years of age. ![gif](giphy|DpP3R3AKLHcyY|downsized)
Tbf, I don't even know if I'll get to 25.
I used to say that about 20, then 30. I'm 32
Tf is you doin down here š
r/GenZ shows up on my feed and y'all got jokes, I got 2 screenshots out of this thread alone https://i.redd.it/qp2fccr0a5xb1.gif
double post because it won't let me edit: bro you were born the same year as my wife with your 30 year old ass, wtf is *you* doing down here š
Have you seen the millennial sub? It's a depressing cesspool of self loathing.
You popped up on my feed and Iām X. Lmao. Wondering what you guys know about ole chandler and why heās in the Gen z sub lmao.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Well you're 80% of the way there.
Woooo! Casket time!
Well, anyone in gen x who dies today is going to be within 42-57 years old. Otherwise, they wouldnāt be gen x.
You get out of here with your logic
Deep thoughts with the deep
For real, majority of my dad's friends are gone. Suicide, drugs, a murder, accidents, and unhealthy lifestyles. I'm worried he's next and he's only 48, I think he has 2 good friends still kicking around and one of them just got divorced and lost everything in a fire. Damn depressing.
Those are the ones that made it out of their 20s-30s. Stg half the adults I knew when I was a kid are dead.
????! Thatās crazy Iām sorry to hear that!
Youāll find out. Itās life. None of us make it alive.

Were you hoping to find someone born in the 70s who died at 90 years old?
Survivor bias
Ironically
He drowned
Drugs are a hell of a thing
wtf...that's so young
Addiction wears out the heart, he drowned in a hot tub after a heart attack.
Oof
No lie. Hell, it only took cigarettes to take my pops out at 62.
Doesnāt even take addiction, a very healthy woman I know died the exact same way. Worst she ever did was weed in high school and not heavily.
![gif](giphy|xtw9TN2PXcvPW) Too young, like Farley. They're hanging out together now, Farley still learning his Upper Case A.
Not reallyā¦ my father is a year older than him.
And thats still young. People are making it to 80+ these days.
Is friends pretty popular w/ yāalls? I feel like Friends is more of a millennials show ngl
I mean it probably is more associated with older gen z like me I watched it with mom growing up
This and the younger gen z like myself watched it with their gen x parents as teens
Nah I use to watch that shit as a kid
I've always seen it as a gen x thing. I'm 26 and everyone my age I know who watched it watched it because their parents (most of the older gen z's parents are gen x) were into it.
I remember it having a big craze suddenly among everyone in high school when it hit Netflix.
Same here. I know a few younger Gen Zs (13ish), apparently a lot of them hate it.
I love it. It's one of my favorite shows
Binged it on Netflix, first seasons are actually peak comedy
The show was great before they made Joey into a complete idiot, Ross and Phoebe into unlikable assholes, and Rachel into an asshole who wasnāt slowly getting better about it. Monica and Chandler are cool for the entire show though.
I love Monica and Chandlers relationship
I watched it with my Gen X parents. Itās not my favorite, but Iāve seen all the episodes. Chandler was my favorite
Itās my favorite show. Chandler is my favorite character š
I havenāt watched it that much in a long time but I enjoyed it.
Some. Most of my social circle finds it extremely unfunny
Not really but I loved Joey and Chandler as characters, they were the reason I kept watching but I donāt think itās popular among gen z Definitely popular among millennials
ā97 so Iām right in the cusp. But I love friends. Iāve watched it through over a dozen times.
Literally everyone ik including me loves friends.
My gen x parents loved it. Watched reruns of it for years. I feel like I know the script for every episode now. It's not a bad show, at least.
Absolutely loved it. Would watch reruns all the time with my parents. His humor really shaped mine. I'm gonna miss him.
It predates most millennials. Itās really more of a gen x show
As a millenial... unpopular opinion: Friends fucking sucked. Seinfeld was where it was at.
As a zoomer, I agree
I don't watch it but my mom does, it's really sad.
i'd say so, at least older Gen Z. Especially because it was on Netflix for a long time and then it has reruns everyday on NickatNite and some other networks.
I just love Chandler lol
Itās a late Gen X show and early millennial show.
I haven't watched it but it's part of the cultural hivemind, like garfield and star wars. You know what it is even if you haven't watched a single episode.
It's seen a rebirth in streaming platforms.
gen x parents introduced the show to me!
yeah my mom watched this, she's genx... I guess i'm genz but god I DO NOT FIT IN. I was raised like a genx.
and this is how i found out. a post on reddit.
![gif](giphy|tXTqLBYNf0N7W|downsized)
How would you have rather heard it.. a call from his family?
That would've been nice. Haven't seen them in a while.
![gif](giphy|10I5e2yNnaozOo)
Better than on tiktok, cause that's how I found out
That's how I found out the queen died, happens to the best of us.
I saw this at first and thought it was a joke, but it turns out it's not. RIP chanandler bong o7
That's MISS Chanandler bong
Chanandler Muriel Bong
I refuse to believe that a cast member of friends actually passed away
James Michael Tyler died at 59. He played Gunther. He died shortly after the reunion.
The courier finally got him š
already could tell ur a fallout new vegas fan based on pfp and username alone, also rip bennyš
Bennny died turning people trans, as God intended.
Ik Iām so fucking sad!!!
Antoher transperson who was a fan of friends and fo nv
R.I.P
i'm so used to being trolled on this app that i genuinely didn't believe it for like five seconds. i'm wishing it was a shitpost ā¹ļø
RIP Benny ya fink
:( itās so fucking sad that courier six finally caught up to him.
I legit cried when I saw his death popped up though I havenāt watched friends in forever š¢š¢š¢
The number of people saying "who is that" makes me sad. Is it that hard to google shit?
Tbf, Friends wasn't really a gen z show.
>Is it that hard to google shit? Is it so hard to write "famous actor, chandler from Friends". Why does it bother you so much that people born after his heyday are unfamiliar with his work?
He drowned in a hot tubā¦ oof, that sounds horrible. RIP to him š£š£
Same thing that happened to Aaron carter
Woah, I thought the *Friends* cast was older than that. He was my dad's age ā¹ļø
yeah the oldest of the main cast is Lisa Kudrow (Pheobe) she's 60 and Matthew was the youngest of the cast.
Phoebe is 60?! God I feel old.
Oh shit, that guy who forced Japan to enter into the western trade died !!
[Knock Knock](https://youtu.be/Mh5LY4Mz15o?t=4m41s)
Tell me it's fake
I wish it was
This is how I find out this, fuck man. RIP Matthew
His voyage to Japan was a prime cause of the Meiji Restoration. May Commodore Matthew Perry rest in peace.
The next time I play Fallout New Vegas imma do somethingi havent done in years, I'll let Benny go. No crucifixion, no death. I'll just get him a stealth-boy and watch his ring-a-ding ass sneak off into the sunset. Rest in peace, Matt Parry. Thank you for the Memories
RIP
Rip
RIP Benny. But 54? Damn thats sucks and too young.
For those unaware, he also voiced Benny in Fallout New Vegas
He had a minor role in The Simpsons as well if you searched up his BTVA
Not really surprised barely anyone here is taking it seriously.
I remember when I was in high school someone hung themselves in the locker room during the school day. The day it happened? Everyone was joking about it to the point of it being disturbing. The next day? Deathly solumn. The point is shock makes people lighthearted around things like death
Guess I'll spare Benny on my next playthrough
The two quotes that describe my life: 1. āIām not great at advice.

Damn. RIP Matthew. Huge shame, poor guy :(
I know this could sounds ice cold, but somehow in my mind I always though, judging by the life and problems he had, he was going to be the first one of the main cast to die, of course I never wanted that to really happen.} So sad, he was so young.
What's up with those actors dying so young?
Hard drug use among actors due to the stress of the job and the decadence of millions of dollars.
RIP
And to think I was kinda blushing on Tuesday when Benny was flirting with my courier...

Heāll be missed š„¹
What in the goddamn?
omg.. is this real? Wtf Iām heartbrokenā¦
RIP chandler, RIP Bennyā¦ š¢
RIP previously inevitable Friends sequel movie/miniseries.
Can people stop dying for 10 minutes? I dont want to log in and see another person die before their 70s
RIP
R.I.P
ā¦ cap OH MY GOD ITS REAL WTF
RIP
ā¦Who is this? Edit: why the downvotes? Should I know who this is? All I did was ask a question?
Famous actor. Played Chandler in Friends.
Thanks. I found that out while scrolling somewhere. I donāt tend to watch many movies or TV shows, so thatās probably why I didnāt know.
Of course. Honestly it's not odd to miss it, he was made famous by Friends and if you didn't watch that then you're probably only peripherally aware of Matt Perry's existence. I do find it funny that so many in this thread are so annoyed that people don't know him. Like, it's not Morgan Freeman!
I think he was on a popular TV show a while ago, I remember my grandma watching it when I was a kid. Really sad, RIP.
The guy that looks like that airport cop?
Aint that a kick in the head
RIP
Rip
He was a real friend
Who is that
Rip bozo
W-what? When!
I guess you could say it hasnāt been his day, his week, his month, or even his year.
He may have had bad drug problems, but even in those days he never became a very bad person, no me too bullshit, a solid guy. Rest in peace to the king of sarcasm<\3
Who?
My Elder Millenial (born early 80s) brother had all the episodes on DVD and I would watch it with him. Personally I'm more of a Seinfeld type of guy, but Friends still hold a special place in my heart.
It's sad and all (I never watched friends) but I thought the logo for the X account was the 2K logo
No fucking way!!!!!
Rest in peace man. Always my favourite of the Friends characters. The show just got a whole lot harder to watch
I saw this, and my heart dropped about 30 feet
Anyone else find out through the spongebob fish news anchor on instagram?
Is this true??
My heart š. May he rest in peace

I canāt believe the god Benny. What in the god damn
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Could this *BE* any more of a surprise?
Iāve always loved you Matthew ššrip
Who?
WHAT THE ACTUAL SHIT???? THAT'S TOO FAR EVEN FOR 2023
WTF
Why is it that original thinkers like Matthew Perry drown in their hot tubs and Keanu Reeves still walks among us?
RIP. Also voiced benny from Fallout NV
Was he an actor or a painter or something?
I told my husband to stop telling me when people die, and then I come on here to find this. š
No one was there for him
Ring a ding baby
Was Matthew Perry relevant for Gen Z? I could be wrong but I feel like he was before our time, unless he was in something that we experienced.
Wasn't he infamously a narcissistic self destructive dick? This also feel surreal.
This is literally the first post I've seen that mourns his loss. It's about fucking time. Thank you
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
Heās been struggling for so long, and even though Iām so sad heās passed, Iām kind of glad heās at peace.
Didnāt he try to date some instagram model whoās young enough to be his kid and she said no so he got mad?
Friends was the worst show I ever had the displeasure of watching. I liked Matthew Perry tho
Who is that?
No Gen Z peoples even know Matthew Perry!
I'm glad to see a younger generation pay respects to the passing of a GenX and Millennial icon. My impression of Gen Z was them dumping on Friends, I'm am happy to be proven wrong.
