I can't imagine him going any way less shocking.

It does seem oddly fitting, doesn't it?

for sure ... anything less would have been anti-climatic.

But damn, he could have at least OD'ed and had some fun out of it. :(

I think him and Johnny Depp were working on the movie version of the rum diaries. I hope it all still goes through. You guys should check out the criterion collection version of fear and loathing, there's some pretty cool interviews with Hunter on it.

Truely a self (un)made man.

He may have waited a bit too long to be a burn out..
