  • Giraldo was a very funny comic. He was underrated, so much so that it became a running joke: Who the f*** is Greg Giraldo?
    Last Comic Standing – a brilliant show – hinged on his presence. When he laughed, I laughed. Comedy Central roasts won't be the same without him either. He's a famous person I'll miss. May he rest in peace. May heaven console his family.
    When celebrities die young, it can sober us and bring us to wisdom. In this case, if you're glum about not earning good money or being famous, please note that you didn't just die of an overdose, be thankful for that, and get back to treasuring the life you have.
