Guys, I just heard and have barely processed, but I just want to say that I loved Harold Ramis so so so much and now I’m filled with sorrow.
He was a fucking genius, and sometimes when I’m hanging out and brushing my teeth, or whatever, I just watch the first 20 minutes of Stripes again.
He made some of the best and funniest movies of all time, and this is my favourite article about him, and I am actually crying.
Love you, Harold.

He was the dreamiest Ghostbuster…. sigh. RIP Harold.
I had such a crush on him. ;__;
By far the most crushable Ghostbuster. I feel like we may need to rent this tonight.
YES! That little smile after the “Do Re Egon” quip just melts me.
Let’s say this Twinkie represents the normal amount of awesomeness in an actor/director. Based on Harold Ramis, it would be a Twinkie… thirty-five feet long, weighing approximately six hundred pounds.
You’re a big fucking Twinkie, Harold Ramis. A big fucking Twinkie.
🙁
No no no no no
Don’t mind me, I’ll just be over here posting Harold Ramis gifs and sobbing quietly.
Such a total crush object, seriously. 🙁
fuck everything
Like, EVERYTHING. I am not going to look at the submissions folder until tonight when I feel better, and I think I’m going to read some physical books and moan quietly for the rest of the day.
thank you emby
My immediate reaction to this was “No. I reject this.”
It’s a blow to lose him so young, and a gift to have had him at all. What a giant, and a quiet giant: cheerfully constructing a whole new landscape of comedy, creating films and mentoring future creators, throwing out perfectly crafted little performances, and leaving center stage to louder, brasher performers – and making it his business to make them look good.
Mr Pi texted me this and my response was just NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
🙁 🙁 🙁 So much sadfacing for this.
All my evening plans are postponed until I watch Ghostbusters and possibly also Stripes forthwith.
This is the saddest news and my boyfriend is totally devastated because Ghostbusters is his favourite movie of all time and he loves Harold 🙁
NO. NO. NO. Today is my birthday, and 12 years ago my grandmother died on this day. And now Harold Ramis. So I think since this is such a loser, bad luck day, the solution is to skip this date forthwith (and, by association, all my future birthdays).
My friend sent me a link to the news and in my inbox it the subject was slightly cut-off so it only said “Harold Ramis, a brilliant actor, director, & writer bes…”
When I saw it my stomach clenched up and I was afraid to open the link until I had talked myself into believing that it was just an awesome profile of him. 🙁
I was already crying over the new Barney’s ad campaign guys! I don’t need more tears at work on Monday.
That’s really all I can say 🙁

That's really all I can say 🙁
This makes me profoundly sad.
I’M UPSET
Harold Ramis looked like my father. Egon has been such a force in my life. This is something I was not ready for.
Young Harold Ramis looks so much like young My Dad, this is not okay.
I have got to figure out a way to assess which artists and creators have had a profound effect on my life before they die so I can thank them. It wasn’t until I heard this news that I thought about my weird relationship with Groundhog Day, which was a companion to me in days and hours and minutes when I really, really needed one.
And that means I can’t thank Harold Ramis, though he surely deserved my thanks for the last, oh, 17 years.
I won’t say Groundhog Day saved my life. Not exactly.

That was beautiful. And yes, Groundhog Day. It's one of the most underrated films of all time (even if it's acclaimed, it's still underrated, because it's just that good).
I don't usually cry when celebrities die. I didn't know them, after all. But the mind that created such an important piece of my life… How can he be gone?
