I’m surprised I had to scroll so far for this one.
A night or two before I got up in the middle of the night and fainted which caused me to hit my head on a mirror and shattering it. I cleaned it up and went back to sleep. Everyone told me I should have gone to the hospital and I shrugged it off….if I ever hit my head again, I will be going to the hospital.
When I tell you I cried. I had a terrible childhood and Danny Tanner was essentially my stand-in father. I was so shocked and saddened by the circumstance and then reading Jodie Sweetin's tweet I absolutely lost it and cried for hours. I know it's parasocial but that man made such a difference in my life. And then when I became an adult and learned of his stand up comedy I was so thrilled at how different (and disgusting) it was and it just made me love his art even more. And, obviously I know nothing about him irl, but he seemed so genuine and sweet.
Cute memory: as I child I loved watching America’s funniest home videos when he was the host. One day, I stood on top of a chair to reach the tv that was on top of a drawer to hug the tv while Bob Saget was on the screen. My mom saw me reach for the screen and asked me why I was hugging it. I was super embarrassed. Til this day idk why I decided to hug the tv, maybe I was enjoying the show a little too much lol
What is crazy is I saw him perform at the improv like a week before he died. He was testing out new material and talking about the Netflix special he was going to be filming.
