hey thanks Rush for priming the pump for pretty much every bad political development of my adult life. hope you went painfully!

Actually quite a fitting tribute for our ex-prez to eulogize Rush by talking mostly about himself.

Wait, guys, breaking news: it turns out that these were all just rumors and innuendo. It seems that Rush Limbaugh is actually still alive.
― The Mandolinrainian (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 17 February 2021 19:19 (three years ago) link

Not really.
He’s fully dead, repeat Rush Limbaugh died and is no longer alive

I know there's been a lot of scientific interest in seeing what would happen if we shot a human being directly into the sun, but has it actually happened? It's time to move beyond theory and put our innovative astro-corpse-disposal methods into practice

same deal with the science regarding hydraulic presses crushing things. we've crushed gold bars with ease, but can these machines handle a rush limbaugh?

Confirmed: Rush not dead, Vote was 51-49 with 49 Republicans, Joe Manchin, and Diane Feinstein crossing the aisle to vote that he's alive.

i just feel like maybe rush should give back a little to the scientific community, maybe donate parts of his body to several hundred different hundred unauthorized cadaver studies, along with industrial engineer groups

Death is such a personal thing. When I think of Limbaugh I instantly remember how he made fun of gay people dying of AIDS, making a cruel and hopeless time even worse, but that's just me. You have to find your own way of being happy that he's dead. 🥂— Stephen Guy-Bray (@SGUYBRAY) February 17, 2021

He took his sweet time about it. Seems like he got his terminal diagnosis last September and he still managed to shovel steaming heaps of lies and stupidity for months after the election. What a piece of shit human being.
― Compromise isn't a principle, it's a method (Aimless), Wednesday, 17 February 2021 20:32 (three years ago) link
not many people come to know their fate ahead of time, like he did. he had time to step back and re-assess his mortality, his life, his purpose. he could have even tried to make amends in some ways (and man we all would have lost our shit on him if he tried). but instead he doubled down on everything that made him evil and got a medal from a fascist for his efforts
― Zach_TBD (Karl Malone), Wednesday, 17 February 2021 20:37 (three years ago) link
One thing that does upset me is that he isn't going to die again

I never listened to his show but I know about his coded and not-so-coded racism and hatred. Fuck him.
As someone who tried not to pay attention to him, I'm wondering: Was he honest about his political opinions or was he just following the money? Or does that even matter?
― wasdnuos (abanana), Wednesday, 17 February 2021 21:11 (three years ago) link
he seemed less like today's Alex Jones and that he is really that batshit stupid

Rush, pretty sure WYSIWYG. Maybe the lower you get down the Fox broadcaster chain, it's more a career move for post-collegiate Media majors (and/or stupidity given free rein) vs. their firm convictions.
― the body of a spider... (scampering alpaca), Wednesday, 17 February 2021 21:16 (three years ago) link
he was one of the first post-Fairness Doctrine beneficiaries, so it wasn't as glamorous a career path like it is now to be a human shitposter

would it be ok to rename this thread to Do Not RIP Rush Limbaugh, or something similar? because please don't rest in peace

Tbf it also stands for ‘rest in piss’.

But do we even have to let him "rest" at all? I'd lobby for "Rots in Piss" myself.

― frogbs, Wednesday, 17 February 2021 21:56 (three years ago) link
why are you scrolling through his tweets
you literally don't have to ever pay attention to him again, that's what is so great about him being dead

this dude really was so instrumental in putting the GOP on the path from dogwhistles to explicitly yelling the ‘quiet’ part. I feel like by the time Obama was in office the Fox white power opinion hour had caught up w him and then by Trump basically shot past him, but he had a good decade and a half run where he was the voice of vanguard. what a piece of shit.
