I was waiting for someone to post this link
I’m happy that I don’t have to click on it to know what it is

Some people say that there’s a woman to blame.
But did he ever find his long lost shaker of salt?
Last I heard, he was still searchin for it, but it’s his own damn fault.
Should’a got a tetanus shot after cutting his foot on that pop-top.
I’d hate to be a bartender near a college this weekend.
my cover band is playing a beach bar gig tonight… I started shedding Margaritaville and Cheeseburger as soon as I saw the headline
Now Jimmy’s having his cheeseburgers in paradise.
Through 76 years of perpetual motion, he had a good life all the way.
I think the Lahaina fire destroying that place killed his will to live.
I thought the keys were his stomping grounds
There was a restaurant in Lahaina called Cheeseburger in Paradise. (Not owned by him, but still.)
Justin McElroy is going to be heartbroken.
My first thought as well. At least he got to meet the guy a couple times.
So back in 2009 when the Saints won the Superbowl, people were going nuts in New Orleans. There was some heavy tailgating going on. I think this was before the championship game. There’s this group of people who would pool their money together and go all out. They’d bring in a big flatbed trailer for an 18 wheeler, and use it as a stage under a large overpass near the Super Dome, and have a massive party with a live band. They hired my friend’s band to play. Jimmy Buffett walks up and offers to join them on stage for a song. It was really cool of him.
That’s an awesome story. Thank you for sharing.

Gonna just pipe in on this comment because I love this format so much I’ve become a supporter. I don’t have the skill for any complex computer use and this format was super easy to use.
Man, what a bummer. Of all the celebrity deaths I would have expected this year Jimmy was not on my list…
So tell us more about this list…
Damn wasnt expecting this, rest in peace
9 years after retirement age.
Remember folks: we’re here for a good time, not a long time.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Jimmy Buffett, the singer-songwriter who drew millions of fans with his folksy tales of living and loving on tropical sandy beaches, frozen concoction in hand, died Friday night.
The song went on to inspire a brand, which included restaurants and resorts, a radio station, clothing and apparel, as well as food and drink items like beer, tequila, salad dressings and salsa.
Buffett was also nominated for two Grammy Awards, for “Hey Good Lookin’” — a cover of the Hank Williams classic — and “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere,” a duet with country superstar Alan Jackson.
Fellow country singer Jerry Jeff Walker first let him stay at his Coconut Grove home, and then they drove in a 1947 Packard to Key West, he told graduating students at the University of Miami, where he received an honorary doctorate in music in May 2015.
And Buffett guest-starred in the Tom Selleck show “Blue Bloods,” playing both himself and a virtual double who posed as the singer and scammed people.
He also dedicated some of his time to charity, starting the “Save he Manatee Club,” a non-profit that seeks to protect the large, docile marine mammals from boating injuries and harm by the actions of people.
The original article contains 715 words, the summary contains 201 words. Saved 72%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Was just wasting away at a margaritaville a few weeks ago. RIP
Surprising how many shitty people there are in this thread. We lost an awesome person. R.I.P. Jimmy Buffett, may your music and legacy live on.
Jimmy Buffet was in Epstein’s black book and wrote songs about being horny for 15 year old kids
RIP Slurms Mackenzie

When your own life is so miserable, you need to spew your trademark bile in response to an obituary for someone who was very much not an evil person. Maybe you’ll find peace someday, but probably not before you jettison your shitty attitude.

Good. I hate his music.
His music will live on forever
You took time out of your day to be this big of a piece of shit.
Kind of amazing actually.
“Good”? I hope your radio plays Margaritaville like it’s groundhog day until you become a better person.
Wow. You seem like a real piece of shit.
Ah yes, once someone dies we are no longer allowed to listen to their music do you’ll be safe now.
