Once again (oh surprise), the media got it all wrong. "Ooooh, he was the funny man, how shocking". Do you, ignorant media fucks who couldn't come up with an original thought if your sorry-ass lives depended on it, even realize what Williams' supernatural gift was? Speed. Not the drug - unfuckingbelievable mental speed. You can't always appreciate it, what with some lame scripts in some of his movies and whatnot. One-on-one, however, in an interview or something similar, guy was mind-blowing, and NOBODY has ever come close, including Carrey and others.
Al Pacino said years ago that whenever he felt in a tough sport regarding a character, he would ask himself: "What would Robin Williams do?" Such an ability, as it usually happens (who's free of this curse? Paul McCartney?), comes coupled with a fucked up mental wiring. I don't and never will have the guy's powers, but what can I tell ya, I do relate to this.
