My Gary Coleman Tribute

Over the years, I have made a lot of jokes at Gary Coleman’s expense. I’ve called the man ashy, laughed at his legendary temper and even put a f*cked-up part in my hair like he wore in his “Diff’rent Strokes” days. With every arrest or assault on Scottie Pippen, I had ammo for my comedic arsenal. Still, my jokes came from a place of love.

I grew up watching Gary Coleman and his hilarious antics on Diff’rent Strokes. I actually wanted to jump in the TV to help him and Dudley kick The Gooch’s ass! Yes, I too wondered what the f*ck Willis was talking ’bout! I even watched that show once it jumped the shark and added the annoying little red-haired child, mainly because Gary was great at what he did.

I hope that Gary can finally be at peace now. He went through a lot in his personal life, which is why I can kind of understand him having a those issues that led to the negative headlines. I am not excusing the violent outbursts. I’m just saying that I felt bad for the man, considering the hand he was dealt living with medical problems and parents who pissed away his money.

Rest In Peace Gary. I’m going to post one of my favorite Gary Coleman memories below. Enjoy!

    Yeah, who cares? Recently, I found an age-gap site called __Agegaplove“.co“m__ and I met my lover here. He is 9 yeard older than me. It’s a nice place- for Younger Women and Older Men, or Older Women and Younger Men, to interact with each other. Age gap is- not problem there. You may check out or tell your friends.
