According to his representative, rocker Chris Cornell, who gained fame as the lead singer of Soundgarden and later Audioslave, has died at age 52.

In a statement to The Associated Press, Brian Bumbery says Cornell died Wednesday night in Detroit.

Bumbery called the death "sudden and unexpected" and said his wife and family were shocked by it. The statement said the family would be working closely with the medical examiner to determine the cause and asked for privacy.

Cornell was still a working musician until very recently, and performed a show hours before he died. He was last pictured by the press was a little over a month ago, at a screening of The Promise in New York with his two daughters.

Is there any way you could act like a bigger asshole in this thread?

If that offended you that I think it is selfish when people kill themselves that is too ****ing bad. I stand by it. I have dealt with it too many times.

The way you act on here sometimes makes me think You have "clinical" depression. Turning a memorial thread into a pissing contest over semantics is in pretty poor taste. Get over yourself.

Absolutely.

You've been a ****. A ****y ****, listing the deaths of your friends without honoring Chris Cornell's documented issues.

You've made this thread about YOU, while ignoring the fact that you know ZERO about CLINICAL DEPRESSION.

Ka'do's.

And the way you "post on here" leads me to believe you're a judgmental, uneducated, ****ing MORON. It's a shock that you can even feed yourself on a weekly basis.

Good luck with your epic dumbassery.

You'll need it.

Wow, do you feel better now? That's it, let it all out. And you are honoring Chris by telling Chiefsshrink what you did? Talk about a ****ing hypocrite. Someone that probably know more about "clinical" depression then you. You called a ****ing quack- was that in Chris's Honor??

I suppose others telling their stories about suicide are trying to make it about themselves as well? Nice deflection to cover your own behavior.

Maybe you need to take another break, you have been a real dick since you came back after the draft. You added absolutely Nothing to this thread but acting like an asshole and picking a fight. I just happened to be the one you lashed out at with your childish behavior THIS time. I guess it was my turn for one of your rants.

And maybe if you weren't such a ****ing loser at life, you wouldn't have ended up in your car.

You're a loser in life for a reason.

Look in the mirror, jackass.

It sucks that Cornell offed himself but it's not a surprise. He's battled Clinical Depression since before he was a household name.

Halfcan, whom I've defended in the past because of his startup business, has always been a complete dick to me. I really don't give a shit, because the overwhelming majority of CP members have been dicks to me because I've revealed things about my life, mostly a decade ago, but I did it.

At this point, everyone that want to take shots at me can go **** themselves. I win, they lose.

I'm sick of the mother****ers, and there have been SCORES, that ask for advice, only to stab me in the back later. It's happened so many times I can't count.

Halfcan, who's an uneducated, butt****ing moron, can just **** right off. He's a fool and because of that, his story will be the same, whether it's 10 year or 20 years down the line.

And as I said earlier, Halfcan, a butt****ing moron, has ZERO understanding of Clinical Depression and has admitted as such.

**** you, Halfcan.

I'm not sure this tells me how you really feel. Could you elaborate further?


Oh, and RIP Cornell. Talented guy, no doubts about it.

You can always tell when Dane's personal life is a mess. Probably just found out that none of his neighbors had heard of him.

Never even been near it that I know, but I read someone describing it like a jacuzzi for your brain.

You know when you've been working around the house and every bone and joint creaks, then you dip into that hot bubbly water and everything loosens and relaxes and all seems well. Then for addicts, it's like they're working out their brain all day, and heroin is like a warm bath that makes everything all right, and concerns and anxieties just melt away.

I'll never get over it. I made this video for him years ago. I still cry my eyes out when I watch it.



I barely made it out of that myself. I wanted to kill myself after he died. Luckily I have 2 daughters, and now 2 granddaughters that have helped me along my road to learning how to live again.

Well great, now I can't lick coochie without weeping ever again.

Wow, dude, keep on rolling off the crazy rails. This might be one of your best rants Ever. Way to play the victim. Pathetic, you against the world.

So I guess having a college degree is Uneducated to you? As far as the "clinical" thing- they did not have labels during my Psychology classes in college, in which I received A's. It was just called depression. That is why I posted about my uncles that suffered with it. Once again using semantics to hijack the thread to justify your childish antics.

And what a Great way to honor Chris- by using a gay slur. I am not gay, never have been, but I have friends and family that are. You are showing all the posters that have supposedly been dicks to poor little ol' you, Exactly the type of person you are.

Btw is calling me a loser because I myself was down and out, completely depressed make you feel better? I guess Chris and everyone else that feels that way is a loser as well. Glad you have the perfect Hollywood lifestyle, but most of us have struggled in their life. You just cried people were mean to you because you disclosed part of your life- and you just did it to me. ****ing hypocrite.

Way to honor Chris- going off on Chiefshrink, derailing the thread, playing the victim and then using gay slurs. Classy.

I don't work around the house so I can't relate.

Well, she couldn't have kids. The fertility medication they gave her made her crazy, literally. And it depressed her even more about not being able to have children.

She was going to counselling, her husband and mother, who moved out here from Ohio to be with her only child, alternated being with her with the counselor.

One day in January a few years ago, she simply got in a cab and was driven from Phoenix to the Hoover Damn Bridge. She got out of the cab and just threw herself off the bridge. She had HOURS to think it through and did it without hesitation.

Here is the story: https://www.casino.org/news/suicide-...s-dirty-secret

I'm feeling your pain now Halfcan. That photo haunts me. That is NOT the woman I saw in the grocery store. It is so sad to see her like this. Peace.

My buddy RJ was one of the Federal police officers who pulled her body out of the lake. He used to work at the Pentagon in DC and spent the last 5 years in Las Vegas living in Henderson watching the Hoover Dam. He told me crazy stories all the time including many suicides both attempted he stopped and those that succeeded.
He also rescued many hikers who went into the desert with not enough or no water and needed major rescue.
