I know there's a much looser language policy here, but that might warrant a spoiler tag.

Found out today that my former boss died this past Sunday. He and his boss (who passed a couple years ago) hired me back in 2002. He really mentored me along and when he retired I moved into his management position. I really owe him a lot.

He had dementia of some sort, but he and his family were closed lipped about it, not that it was really any of our business. Backstory is more complicated than that but not important.

We will miss him.

I had no idea, of course, that one and the same guy designed all these posters.

I suppose you shouldn't have favorite grandparents, but I'm sure we all do, and it seemed as though mine died in the exact order of how much I liked them. My favorite by a mile was my dad's father and he passed in '03. Didn't get a chance to see the man that I became, and I really wish he would have as he was like a second father to me. My mother's parents were your normal loving grandparents, but I never really felt overly close to them. They passed in late '13 and early '14.

Then there's my dad's mom... I always felt uncomfortable around her, and I think it was mostly because of how much I loved my dad's dad. They separated before I was born, but never really divorced. Anyways, she passed earlier today. Only grandparent I won't shed a tear for.

I know Robert Indiana best for designing the Bucks floor at the old MECCA

Having favorite grandparents is what keeps them competitive. My favorite grandpa wasn't even blood related, but the man loved fishing, and let me taste bourbon and look at his playboys.

RIP John Bain aka TotalBiscuit. Been battling cancer for about 4 years.

I didn't watch a lot of his content but I can't deny his influence on Gaming/Youtube as a whole.

We should have a generation of moonwalkers, sad to think we may not have any soon.
