RIP to that bloke from Smash Mouth. One of the better one-hit wonders of the late ’90s. Let’s gloss over him becoming a bit of a dodgy geezer in his rougher later years and remember the catchy summer tunes.

56 is way too young to be dying. Short-lived pop star or not.

I really would suggest you think how you reply to people on threads.

Every single comment or statement you make is either rude or abrupt.

I wasn't asking you I was asking the OP.

And of course I can read, I also have better manners than you do as well clearly.

And I'm not the only person on here that has said the same.

I didn't realise this was a thread about someone who'd passed away until after I'd made my somewhat flippant comment above.

Apologies and sorry to hear about the person who has died.

Who? Sorry if it was someone you knew RTG

No matter, jokes and humour should pretty much always be a priority here on the forums

Don’t worry everyone, it’s just another pop star dying too young. I don’t think any of us here knew him. Flippant is okay.

That said, it’s still a sad thing. And with at least one massive global hit song (you’d all know All Star if you heard it - it’s one of *those* tunes) the guy did touch a lot of lives along the way.

I also commented before rtg's 2nd comment had actually updated on the thread so his first comment made no sense which is why I asked "who".

The singer for the group Smash Mouth has passed.

They're mostly famous for the song you hear right at the start of Shrek.

It has taken on a life of it's own in recent years due to meme culture

I'm not excusing the guy you reprimanded above (his message was too rude that this doesn't save it) but "/s" is used to indicate sarcasm on some online forums.

I know the song and a little of the band Smash Mouth, just didn't put 2+2 together from the opening post.

It's definitely a sad thing for him to pass away so young.

Asking someone if they can read or not in the manner above is rude full stop.

What if I replied back saying that I couldn't very well, then what?

Jeez I even put a /s there. How much more do I have to do? Well, some people are just like that and there is nothing one can do *shrug*

I agree with you, it was too rude to be saved by an "/s"

RTG, sorry to hear about the death of this erstwhile one hit wonder. I also failed to grasp the initial sentiment of the opening post/s until I read the entire thread.

I also had no idea what the "/s" meant. I just thought it was a typo.
