Could this BE any more of a drag.

RIP

For those that don't want to read that article that looks like it was written by a teenage intern -

Gotta admit, I expected it to be related to his past drug/alcohol abuse. Drowning is a bit of a shock.

Can I just say I saw this on lemmy before anything. Nice job keeping up with the news!

back in the 90s I was in a very famous teeeeveeeee showww

This is my first celeb death that is surreal and weird and just generally feels wrong like this person should always exist in the background. I really hope that his story brings some lessons and guidance for others. And i hope that those who knew and loved Matthew find a soothing peace in the coming days and months.

RIP. My favorite actor from Friends.

RIP to one funny guy. I really never was into Friends, but my wife is a huge fan, and over the years, I've come to enjoy them as well.

Shit. This sucks. RIP, Benny from New Vegas

Drag. He seemed to be quite the tortured soul. Thanks for the entertainment, bud. Godspeed.

Rest in peace my favorite fallout voice actor

So no one told you life was gonna be this way...

RIP.

Damn I thought he was entering his personal renaissance. That's awful.

Wow, the end of a true era now that one of them is gone. :(

Could this be any more sad? :(

I don't even like Friends but I feel sad losing him. Lost another older friend yesterday night in accident. I just became an uncle yesterday. Life is crazy sometimes.

RIP, man. You had a rollercoaster life, but you will continue to make me laugh until I join you. Thank u!

He drowned in a lap pool, not a jacuzzi as being reported.

Correction, Twitter says it was a hot tub, lap pool combo.

Microsoft should honor him by rotating photographs of him into all search results.

God damn it, this really sucks. First it was Robin Williams, then it was Bob Saget, and now it's Matthew Perry. Stop taking my 90s funny men away from me!

Thanks for the laughs 😢

Huge part of my childhood. Kept hoping he’d turn things around, RIP.

Friends was my gateway into the USA-fetishizing trend prevalent in my country in the 1990s. Was a pretty great comedy ngl though.

Damn wtf, this sucks. He was awesome. He was the best character on Friends for sure.

Damn, that’s young.

From where he is now, it must seem like an 18-carat run of bad luck.

Damn, wasn't expecting this one. RIP.

Rest in peace.

The funniest people always seem to be the one who has the most pain in their hearts.

Bing is the best character in Friends, and his story line with Monica is the best.

Memory eternal

I can't believe someone got this photo of his last moments

Well.... Fuck.... F

vaxxed?

Is anyone surprised?

Cuz if you are, I'd love to talk to you about a bridge I've got for sale.

Hope he's at Peace. Dude fought some demons, it's a shame it ended this tragically.
