Woah...Corey Haim dead.

I just heard the news, and watched some clips on ET about Feldman attempting an intervention on their reality show. Haim refused saying he didn't have a problem.

And in the same segment, Dr Drew of Celebrity Rehab said they approached Haim (I think he said a couple of weeks ago). Haim refused.

I have no idea if he was clean or not. But I'd venture a guess he wasn't. And it finally killed him.

All I could think while I watched the ET segment was, "What an $#@-hole!"

I liked Haim. I enjoyed his movies in the late 80s, and watched The Two Coreys occasionally when it was on. I certainly wasn't a big fan, but was hoping he would turn his life around. Apparently he didn't want to and threw it away. Leaving his Mother and friends to grieve.

Jerk.

My stepson is a heroin addict. He has been in and out of jail continually since 2005. He always claims he is "off drugs". I haven't believed him for years (well never actually).

My wife always waits for that "phone call" to tell us he's dead.

So Haim's death hit a little close to home. I'm actually pissed that he's dead.

I hope he finds the peace in death he could not find in life.

Thanks for Lost Boys and Silver Bullet.

Yep thanks...


Now anyone who cries and whines like little girls over someone who dies via a drug addiction needs to simply STFU. Killing yourself this way is as pathetic as any suicide is.

Sorry Cory but you're a pathetic human being
and you went out as a pathetic excuses for one. Hope the crack or meth was worth it...(n)thumbsdown
 
I really think some people need to get off there holy-high-horses and understand that no one is perfect. We ALL make mistakes.

There are people crying over not being able to help him and I agree that its lame of him to have put those people through that.

But talking smack about the recently deceased? I wouldnt talk that way about my worst enemy.

Truly bad form and pretty disgusting way to be IMHO.

I have alot of cherokee in my family and fully believe that disrespecting the dead is about as low as you can be. Hope none of you get hit by a bus tomorrow!!! WATCH WHERE YOU WALK FOR A WHILE!

Really appalling.
 
Lets champion DRUG ADDICTION...:eek Who's in need of help? :rolleyes Sometime some of you will really need to check yourselves.

Ummm... I dont think anyone is saying drugs are good... or that he was a great person... or that the loved ones who were hurt by his death wasnt his fault...

I havent seen one post like that...

So what is your point?

Or are you just bashing a dead guy because you can?

Why did you even look into the thread?

Could you not just say to yourself "loser" and move on?

Have you ever drank? Anything? I'd bet dollars to donuts you havent lead the "perfect" life... Do you think you have?

I feel bad for Feldman... and haims family out of respect and because unlike any of you on here... I actually know Corey Feldman personally.

You seem to be filled with alot of hatred bud. The darkside may have consumed you the way drugs consumed Haim.

If you or no one you love has ever been affected by drugs CONGRATS! :thumbsup

If you have been affected personally by someone on drugs and that is why it sickens you than I feel bad for you... :sleep

Because although I'm not perfect, I do have a heart.

Spare me the :cry...

Yes I drink, moderately. I smoke cigarettes too... :confused I do however wake up everyday and take care of my family. I work hard, and provide well for those I am responsible for.

No I don't know or associate with anyone with a drug problem. I don't care about people who abuse substances... they don't exist or matter. Substance abusers are a drain on society and a general menace to society. CAN WE SAY DARWIN EFFECT at work!!
 
I think the key thing to remember is that he did this to himself. No one murdered him. He would be alive today if he made better choices through his life insead of repeatedly doing something he knew would very likely cause his eventual death. Every time he popped a pill or shot up or whatever he did he made a conscious decision, and now he's dead because of the choice he made.
 
I bet you smoke all day everyday if you smoke at all... I hate cigarettes and think they are the most disgusting annoying thing on the damn planet. My best friends mother died from smoking when we were younger. It was great seeing her die slowly suckin on an oxygen tank!

when you have lung cancer I guess we should have a thread saying what a nasty POS... I guess he didnt give a crap about his family and smokin a pack a day was more important than being alive!

See how horrible that sounds?

I dont support drug addicts.

I dont think anyone should.

Like I said, I'm not crying and I doubt anyone on the boards are...

Dont you have anything else to do other than bash people who you are obviously better than?

Great! Good for you! Your da man! Go smoke em if ya got em and revel in the fact you are a better person than Corey Haim! You are the evolved super intellect, super human you think you are!

GO TEAM YOU!
 
My anger towards Haim is because of what he put his family and friends through.

I know firsthand what it's like to watch someone you love destroy themselves piece by piece. To try and "help" them. To fall for their lies. To keep thinking "This time he really means it. This time he's going to come around." Only to once again watch this person go back to their old ways.

And to finally come to grips with the fact that by "helping" them, you are actually enabling them. And that you finally have to do the unthinkable- you have to turn your back on them. Because you've done everything you can.

I can't imagine the day my wife gets that phonecall. No matter how much of a screwup my stepson is, no matter how many times he's gone to jail, how many people he has screwed over, it's going to destroy her.

I am not one to think "good riddance" or "one less addict around". My anger stems from Haim not allowing anyone to help him.

But- I don't know what it is like to be addicted to something in such a way that it blinds you, and nothing matters but feeding the addiction. So I do have sympathy for Haim.

This I do fully agree with.

It is true.

It is horrible.

It was horrible for him to trade his life for a constant buzz and do this to his family.

It was selfish of him to live the way he did.

But I think there is something to be said for self control of ones words.

Bashing a dead guy is kinda pointless. He didnt rape and/or murder anyone. He did it to himself and he paid the price... what more is needed to be said???

I just dont get it.

And like I said, I know Feldman personally... and talked with him about Haim, and saw the tears in his eyes wishin he could help him. I was even in the car with him while he talked to him once.

All I'm sayin is its a sad thing to lose a loved one for any reason...

Is it pathetic to waste your life away on drugs and hurt people that care about you? absofrakkinglutley!

I'm done.

Darkside, I have no personal prob with you dude. And I'm not trying to start a war or change your mind about anything. I just feel that what you posted was unwarrented and pointless. He's dead... he paid the price.

Done and over.

I think when you are introduced to hard drugs as a 12 or 13 year old and become hooked, certain things are evident. You dont have a strong support structure within your family since you were allowed to run and do these hurtfull things to yourself before you know any better and once your hooked people need a support structure do get off and stay off. He obiviously didnt have any of these things from the interviews that I have seen from his mother. Its not like when your an adult and live on your own you can flip a switch and say ok now I am done. He seemed to be a doomed soul from very early on.

Drugs and alchohol have touched everyones life including Darkside. Some people just live in there own world so they can wake up everyday.

When I lost my virginity Corey was there. Right over the bed looking down at me with that go get it smirk. She was a fan of The Lost Boys and had a that poster up on the wall. So he was kinda there on a great day for me.

I am sadden by this. The 80's were a great time and place to be - especially if you were in your teens. It was all about having a good time and you ad to believe with all your heart that the Russians wouldn't blow you up at any given moment. It's sad that the icons of escapism and the party decade aren't able to cope with this new age of cynicism.
