A sympathy thread for someone who tried to capitalize on their drug addiction by a reality show?

Sympathy for someone who's only "claim to fame" was LEAVING A BAND EIGHTEEN YEARS AGO?

Gimme a break. I have more sympathy for the bugs on my windshield than any drug addict that pisses their life away or suck starts a shotgun.

Some of you act like you knew the guy personally. Please.

Another dead drug addict. Darwin's Theory of Natural Selection.

The former Alice in Chains bassist, who was found dead in his Salt Lake City home Tuesday, made a desperate plea for drugs shortly before he died.

"If you could score me an eighth, quarter ounce, half ounce or bud or whatever," Starr said to an unidentified friend in a voice mail message obtained by TMZ.com.

"I need it so bad," the musician pleaded before hanging up.

Yeah. We're supposed to feel SORRY for this guy?
