No, really.  And I was re-watching Spinal Tap a few days ago, too.Not sure why CNN isn't naming them. I found out from an Apple News alert via Rolling Stone, who are confirming that he and his wife are the victims. So long, meathead. North is no longer the worst thing that happened to you.

SkyboxWriter posted:No, really. The official statements from LAFD just said 'a man and a woman were found deceased inside, approximately 78 and 68 years old, around 3:30 p.m.' There's not been any confirmation of the names, but the ages line up to Reiner and his wife so everyone's making the assumption. The really gross one is People.com is claiming their son stabbed them, with only 'multiple sources' telling them that despite LAPD not even saying they have a suspect in the case

I watch too much Dateline but being stabbed to death in your own home is sadly an indicator that it's very personal and not some rando. drat. Reiner always seemed like a good dude.

Kudos and thanks to whoever changed the tag; I was so stunned by the news that I forgot to select one.MadJackal posted:I worry that his legacy becomes like Phil Hartman's or Trevor Moore's where every mention is just, "RIP, so sad." For sure, absolutely. But that's just what happens. I was going to revisit Princess Bride soon over the holiday break and now it's going to hit hard in a very different way than it ever did before.

He had a lot of integrity that I have admired. He was up for good causes that could benefit everyone and it seemed to give many ire. I was worried that it was someone with a different ideology that could have done it as a result.

I'd like to thank Nick Reiner on behalf of all the other failsons out there. This type of double murder really takes the heat off. Just in time for the holidays too.
