Last night while the Patriots were destroying the final #TML of the regular season, I got slapped with a dose of reality that made my silly teaser seem as insignificant as I am. Comedy legend Bob Saget passed away.

Despite my lackluster response to my fantasy group chat, I was shocked and saddened by the news like millions of other people. It certainly put a damper on the rest of the night, and even now, as I type this, it still fucks me up. I just wrote a Full House-based question on Friday for The Dozen and watched his roast multiple times over Christmas vacation during my roast binge (S/O Paramount Plus). This isn't the "he just died boost," but his roast was easily in my top 3 faves. I'd say his, Charlie Sheen and James Francos' are the best. They say you roast the ones you love, and boy, oh boy, did people love Bob Saget.

The #FullHouse cast released a joint statement that pays tribute to Bob Saget: "We became a real family"

Beautiful Bob Saget passed away today at 65. He had a big, big heart and a wonderfully warped comic mind. He gave the world a lot of joy and lived his life for goodness’ sake. :’^} pic.twitter.com/QVSITsfaVj

Still in shock. I just spoke with Bob a few days ago. We stayed on the phone as usual making each other laugh. RIP to friend, comedian & fellow Aristocrat Bob Saget. pic.twitter.com/TDKT8JoULq

Bob you were a higher being. You understood what was truly important in life more than anyone I ever met. You were a gift. RIP @bobsaget

Oh no. RIP Bob Saget. Truly one of the nicest guys and so funny. Very sad.

Bob Saget was funny and kind, but also, let’s not forgot, for people my age, he was the original Hot Dad. It’s not important but it’s true

Bob Saget was so kind and when you spent time with him he made you laugh hard. He loved to be funny and he was hysterical. He was also there for everyone. A beautiful soul. pic.twitter.com/jQuv5cAkuT

Deeply saddened to learn of the untimely passing of comedian Bob Saget. Beloved by millions as America’s Dad, he was a regular presence in our living rooms, bringing to us the funniest videos and countless belly laughs. Gone too soon, like so many of the brightest souls.

If I've said this once, I've said it a million times, but whenever someone around me or my parents' age dies, it always hits a little harder. Bob Saget was just 65, which might've seemed old 20 or 30 years ago, but now it's usually preceded by "at the young age of."

We all know his resume; Full House, America's Funniest Home Videos, the dude who used to suck dick for coke in Half Baked. The list goes on. The man was an icon.

I think I can speak for most people within spitting distance of my age that their first introduction to Bob Saget was as the straight-laced single dad of three girls on Full House. I don't know the timeline, but I watched Full House with my sister seemingly every day after school and can vaguely remember him on AFV. I loved Full House, but what made Bob Saget a legend was finding out how raunchy his comedy was compared to his clean-cut Wake Up, San Francisco image.
Death is almost always sad, but Saget's final post on social media makes this news all the more devastating. He legit just started a new stand-up tour and expressed his excitement to be back on the road doing what he loved.

He loved making people laugh and was damn good at it, but there was a side to Bob that many of us didn't know about. He had a huge heart. Bob Saget was on the board for Scleroderma Research Foundation and worked with Homes For Our Troops.

Last year Bob donated SIX zoom calls to our celebrity auction to raise funds to build homes for wounded veterans. He was passionate about the cause. What a loss. https://t.co/BToxcwMGrG

Bob Saget was simultaneously America's dad and creepy uncle, but regardless of his role, he was beloved by all who encountered him. I hope he and Norm are sharing a beer in the afterlife. R.I.P. Bob Saget. My thoughts and prayers are with his loved ones.
