May is Dennis Hopper Memorial Month!

May is Dennis Hopper Memorial Month, because the loss of Dennis Hopper on an airing day forced me to create the Rainbow Bridge security.

As I feared, the "Street Fighter is so bad, it killed Raul Julia" hate trend eventually did mock Dennis for his passing - indeed further justifying the security. The same hate trend supporter, sorry, assassin who mocked Dennis also posted a certain Nostalgia Critic video elsewhere to attack me, and (surprise, surprise {!}) he and one of his goons attacked me when I confronted him for it; and has even called me one or two hate crime names.

As if in a sign from Heaven, I had my kitty Jasmine on the Dennis Hopper anniversary! Yoshimoto (who was Raul's successor) required the Rainbow Bridge security himself, but only for his initial sickness (there were no airings, at the time when he lost his battle a couple of months after we surrendered him)... and in his place, we welcomed beautiful Jasmine into the family. Jasmine, in turn, has affected certain airing traditions, including and especially for Santa Claude... and even one or two rules for if, say, I need tooth surgery.

As well as the Dennis anniversary, and May 4, 5 and 6 being a celebration for Star Wars fans (as well as May 4 being the anniversary of, much to my delight, the first step toward just why airings mean so much to us as they do today)... the one major date this month is May 24, because I have an airing!

Happy month of Dennis

Get your game on

yes, happy Dennis Hopper Memorial Month!

And of course, because of the 'exceptional circumstances' of Dennis's passing... yes, I felt I ought to become a proud Koopa supporter, in addition to protecting dear Dennis. And this was I think a few months before Lemmy joined!

I am actually stuck for choice on either the names 'Raul' or 'Dennis', for the protagonist on the game Act Raiser - I can't decide what name to pick, if I ever get that game again LOL

Indeed so!

But I also use Dennis Hopper Memorial Month, indeed, as the awareness month about the wickedness of "Street Fighter is so bad, it killed Raul Julia". If peeps just simply disliked or hated the movie, I'd just "Meh" and move on - but how can anyone be so cruel, even to the point of mocking those lost to us on airing days?? How about we remind them of the 'backfire' against Street Fighter X Tekken, and see how they like it??

My family supports and carries out the Rainbow Bridge security as needed, especially after we had to carry it out for Grandpa Ken back in 2016 - I did, indeed, have a few airings during the last few months of his life, including the airing celebration during which we lost him. Again, we are relieved that no he didn't die on an airing day - we lost him on the day before an airing day, little over an hour before I had to start the respective final countdown. Could Raul Julia and Dennis Hopper have pleaded my case, and negotiated a Heavenly compromise for him...?
