Bea Arthur passed away today. She was eighty six. She was one cool broad. If you saw her recently on various Comedy Central Roasts you know she got it. She had very different politics than me but I know we could have hung out and laughed our asses off at the way of the world. She had been around long enough and had seen enough of what is what that she would appreciate my tribute to her. So Rest In Peace Bea. You are probably up in heaven busting Jesus's balls right now.

It is a very sad day. I fucking loved her. She was a gay icon to many fags. I have received dozens of calls today from my sisters broken hearted over her death.
She was the fucking best.
Everything she did I loved and I loved her. The comedy roasts were pure genious. Her reading from Pamela Anderson's book was so good.
She was a rare "gem" in this world and will be sorely missed.
You are in my thoughts today Bea.
I think she was cool too Titus. But at eighty six she had a pretty good run. She still had all her marbles and could bust balls with the best of them. I will left a dress in her memorary tonight.
Maybe a straight scotch. She struck me as a scotch drinker.
I am going to have a drink to her too Troop.
Here's a toast. Raise your glass.
To one fucking cool broad.
She lived a good long life. Still I am sad.
It is ok to be sad when some ne passes. But I prefer to do it the Irish way. Remembering all the drinks you had together, the good times, the laughs, the fun. That's how she would want to be remembered.
So true Troop.
Death sucks but it is something that all of us have to deal with. It's a part of life.
That's why I think it is important to live a good life and enjoy yourself.
Make every day count, even shitty days.
That's why I "try" the yoga and karma and third eye and all that shit. Some think it is bullshit but for me it does give me some assembalance of peace and serenity in this fucked up world.
She did an episode of "Futurama" where she played (the voice of) a "femputer"--actually a fembot pretending to be a femputer--running a planet full of women.
TONS of sexist jokes. Hilarious.
And on the commentary, the guys really gushed over her. At how she totally got the humor and threw herself into the role.
Amazon Women in the Mood, it's called, and the women are all drawn in the style of Crumb.
Which is probably the only time you'd see Arthur and Crumb paired.
Her areolas look less wrinkled than I imagined they would.
Areolas? I thought they were helipads.
"So Rest In Peace Bea. You are probably up in heaven busting Jesus's balls right now."
Or vice versa.
