Default Anthony Bourdain RIP

I had a late start this morning and was surprised that no one else had
posted about the death of Anthony Bourdain.... by suicide. What a
tragedy. He was a very interesting guy.

This is the first I've heard of it. His book 'Kitchen Confidential' was
quite interesting. RIP.

That is unexpected. From an outsider's perspective, it seemed he had
it all figured out.

Yeah, he was quite a bad ass. On the surface, you'd think he had a fun
life traveling the world, meeting interesting people, eating all sorts
of interesting food. Not very good for having a family though. Sad way
to go.

A tragedy for his family left to deal with this the rest of their lives.
No sympathy for the selfish ******* though.

I saw it. I was gunna post: "Bourdain Blows His Brains Out", but it was
hard to realize there wasn't a thread already existing.

Tony was a hard core "urban-ist" (I jes made that word up). I read his
seconnd book (Medium Raw) but got lost in all his 'thesaurus' nonsense
before I could finish.

Is what WAS interesting about him was that he had friends who did not
even know about his cooking career. They knew only about his writing
career! Talk about a 'compartmentalized' life.

He traveled the World, hung with the poor, yet lived the "high-life". I
don't know if he was "interesting" or not, but he was certainly weird.

He wasn't one of those people where you're Oh he was so happy and
laughing all the time, and he did have heroin addiction in his past,
but I did not see that coming. And to let your friend find you?

I know he's got younger kids, too. He must have been really suffering,
I was very sorry to see that news greet me first thing.

I would imagine that it takes a lot of pain and anguish for a person to
kill himself.

When I saw the headline it did not say suicide, but gave his age. Given
his lifestyle of drugs, smoking, drinking and whatever to excess, I'd
not be surprised.

I guess there are a lot of people that seem to have it all but really
have nothing in the way of true happiness and content.

Yep, a person who only thinks of themselves and does not think about the
pain and lifetime heartache and questions they leave behind.

Possibly an untreated mental illness. Fashion designer Kate Spade
killed herself earlier this week. Depression?

The ads for depression medications often point out how people suffering
from depression put on a good face but are feeling miserable inside.
Their friends and family don't even know. It's sad.

All the recent news reports about suicide have had a caption at the
bottom with a toll free number to call if you need to talk to someone.

I wonder if they are connected in an odd way. The adds for medication
and even the news gives phone numbers to call. OTOH, I wonder if all
the publicity from Kate Spade gave Tony the thought, "maybe it is a way
out" and thus tried it.

So many thing that never happened in the past become frequent after
publicity. School shootings, using trucks to run people over, car
jacking, etc.

Same here, I saw that he'd died and my first thought was oh no, then
I guess his heart gave out due to lifestyle. I didn't know it was
suicide until I looked at the article.

He sure seemed to have a lot of friends who cared about him. But
depression doesn't care, if that was the problem.

Beats me. I'd never heard of Kate Spade until it was splashed all over
the so-called news programs. I'm not a fashion maven. I did know who
Anthony Bourdain was. I'd read his book "Kitchen Confidential" and
occasionally saw him on TV.

It's true the media plays a large part in the publicity. I'm not sure
that's an argument for why it appears more people are committing
suicide. We're really only hearing about the celebrities, ya know. I
couldn't begin to give actual statistics.

Same with me, I only had heard of her from a Jeopardy question a few days
before her death. I had heard of AB too, but couldn't tell you if I've ever
seen him.

It wasn't on this morning's news but will probably be on this
evening's news. That is a shock to me. I suspect though that this
probably wasn't a "depression suicide." I suspect he might have
had some terminal health problem and he decided to end it quickly
rather than some lingering death. If that's the case, I'm with
him. Quality of life over quantity.

Don't try to 2nd guess though. He might have done that for a
valid reason and he might have let his family know about
beforehand. You shouldn't call him selfish. None of us know the
details...it's brand new news.

In an interview last February he said he considered it before and
decided not to. One reason was his daughter.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/wel...id=mailsignout

Bourdain told People in February he felt "some responsibility" to "at
least try to live" after welcoming daughter, Ariane, now 11, with
ex-wife Ottavia Busia in 2007.

"I also do feel I have things to live for," Bourdain said.

The food writer revealed he had contemplated suicide several times.

"There have been times, honestly, in my life that I figured, "Ive had a
good run €” why not just do this stupid thing, this selfish thing€¦ jump
off a cliff into water of indeterminate depth,'" Bourdain told the magazine.

He added, "In retrospect, I dont know that I would do that today €” now
that Im a dad or reasonably happy."

Charles Krauthammer's doctors gave him three weeks to live (an
agressive form ofcancer), Charles, a Psychiatrist, MD) likely thinks
Anthony is a stupid douchebag and I have to agree. Life is too short
as it is, only an uncaring shallow brained moroon makes it shorter.
I have no pity for anyone who commits suicide, and they deserve no
pity for leaving their family and friends with that horrendous burdon.
Anthony Bourdain lived his life as a sspineless coward and deserves an
unmarked grave. If only there was some way that Krauthammer could
have claimed Burdain's unlived life. . . .
Let's all erase Anthony Burdain's name from our memory... the useless
putz left a young child to suffer the rest of her life with a heart
breaking memory. I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO PITY FOR "WHAT'S HIS NAME".

Takes an extremely low IQ plus pure selfishness, and uncaring for
those left behind.

You must be suffering pretty badly before you do something as horrible
as hang yourself. It's very easy and shallow to judge and condemn him
without knowing anything about him.

He probably just hit a low point in his life. He couldn't see getting out of the black pit he was in. No doubt that things would have gotten better had he not killed himself. Mostly, people that kill themselves have lost the ability to see and feel the future.

Did he leave a note? I know Kate Spade did but they have not released
the contents yet. Or if they have I haven't read it yet.

I'm not second guessing and there is never a valid reason to take your own
life when you have children. Don't try to excuse his selfish behavior with
platitudes of 'he might have let his family know beforehand.' That is
laughable.

Well, fill us in graham. We're all waiting with baited breath to hear
your theory about how wonderful his family will be now that he's killed
himself. Tell how easy it is going to be for that little girl to cope
with her father dead and knowing he killed himself. He didn't drop dead
of a heart attack, he didn't waste away from cancer, he wasn't mowed down
by a drunk driver, he wasn't killed in a plane crash. But tell us how
right and wonderful it was what he did. Tell us what a spectacular thing
he did and how it's going to benefit everyone. Tell us that little girl
will be just fine and dandy.

Popeye, when yoose dies, the parking lot will be full. They'll line up
to march by yoose grave, to pay their respects by urinating in Yoose grave.

I might go myself, popeye, but I will also shit in yoose grave, asshole.
