Hunter S. Thompson Commits Suicide

Associated Press:

Hunter S. Thompson, the acerbic counterculture writer who popularized a new form of fictional journalism in books like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, fatally shot himself Sunday night at his home, his son said. He was 67.

Fuck. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas made me realize I wanted to write.
