i guess he’s not a very good schwimmer
First lemmy angry upvote. Get my praise and fuck off.
I was hoping that any form of “upvoted” was something we’d be leaving behind on Reddit.
Welcome to the new reddit. Using voyager it even looks like reddit.
OH. MY. GAWD.
Just told this at the bar. Had everyone rolling
Rest in peace, Matthew. Like many, I’ve been concerned about him for years. This is terrible news.
Same. Was always hoping to see him make a comeback. Damn shame :\
He looked 10-20 years older than he should be in the reunion.
Damn, that’s way too young.
Could he be any more dead?
^im sorry^
I gotta be honest, this is the first thing that came to my mind when I read he had passed away.
Rest in peace.
I have a question for native english speakers. I’ve read the TMZ article and they keep using the ellipses aka the “dot dot dot” (…). Why is that? It’s usually used when skipping words inside quotations, but it does not seem to be the case here. They seem to be used instead of commas. Anyone can explain why?
People are saying AI but I believe it’s more of a template. When a celebrity dies the first article out has a huge advantage for getting clicks. They might’ve quickly added details to the template and posted without deleting the ellipses.
Looking at other articles, it looks like abusing the ellipses is something they do frequently
Even as a native English speaker that doesn’t make any sense.
Trash news sources have trash grammar. Go figure.
It’s definitely not normal. Ellipses can be used for pausing too. But you are right the kinds of pauses in this article requires, commas would suffice. Almost makes it seem jokey and disrespectful to read it out with the ellipses pauses.
Might be an AI generated article
That’s long been TMZ style. Like drudge report.
Now that I think about it, it’s actually my first time reading a TMZ piece. Looking at other articles, it does seem to be a thing they do pretty frequently. Weird!
This is an odd article. Reads like it was written by AI.
The ellipses usage is definitely strange.
I would say you could use it as a pause for thought, or to imply to the reader to draw their own conclusion, or that there is additional unwritten information left up to the reader to deduce or use their imagination.
It certainly feels weird the way they use it in this article.
Yes, it’s pretty strange…
Odd even…
The Courier has finally caught up with Benny. Rest in peace.

Never bathe alone.
Aw man. Even the main Seinfeld cast is still around.
Shows what substance abuse does I guess. RIP
Why did his parent drown him?

Though TBH i don’t understand what qualifies as “world news” here. Lemmy is not american
The TV series Friends was enjoyed by more than just the US.
Is Japan going to close their ports now?
