Cornishman Rest In Peace - Aggressively

Real world stresses > Bluelight and there's nothing more we can do about that Si. We already provide a safe haven, taken for granted, unnoticed, a friendlier reflection of a harsh world, that accommodates drug users in a way that nowhere else does. That's a pretty special thing. It would have been nice if we could have provided more help for Cornish, if it had been asked for, but we shouldn't beat ourselves up over his or anyone's death here. We are but a virtual response to real world realities and are limited as such.

RIP Cornish. The Internet is inventing whole new ways to think and feel. For me it started with Evad, through Charlie Clean (lung cancer Si, nowt to do with BL) and now Cornish. It feels strange to feel so emotional over someone who has never really been more than the sum of their text on a website.

They say we go back to where we came, just molecules in the dust etc. We never lose anything. But where does consciousness go? Where does Cornishmans humour go? The world has to be less funny without him.

Something I've been thinking about a fair bit, all of us in EADD who've been around long enough still remember Evad, Charlie, Mugz, Flipping Top and others, so their humour, wisdom and whatever other things they had to offer aren't lost but they really do live on in us and hopefully change us in some way that perhaps we get to pass on to others. Probably a very small way, but nevertheless... immortal in a sense.


Maybe the things we say are more truly our own unique thing, our contribution to the world, than our skin and bone.

I appreciate that reply... I'm worried that we're losing EADDers at an unprecudented rate this year :(

Aye, it's certainly our consciousness that provides our uniqueness, if it is such, and status in the world. As for Cornish's humour...

Cornishman's humour will live on in some small way. Check the thread title for an example.

I completely agree with that.. the Internet does seem to redefine the concept of friendship. I keep feeling that it's selfish of me to be upset because I'll never see someone's posts again.

They are still living on in their old posts, too. It's lovely to stumble across those people when I'm reading through old threads. Their humour and wisdom still remains there. <3
 
Fucking hell, man. :( Cornish's posts were always good to read, hardly a bad word to say about anyone, and a truly clever guy. What sad news. RIP, mate. It's a cruel world we live in. Fuck.
 
So sad to say goodbye to another EADDer. I didn't know cornishman other than from his posts, but his name was a fixture here. It's so crap clicking threads and knowing that the OP is now gone. Cornishman.... RIP, you'll be missed and remembered.

We all need to try to keep BL and EADD a safe place for the people who turn to us when the real world is fucking them over. It's so apparent this year that real world stress > BL, but maybe if we can be a sanctuary for just a few in moments of need them it'll all be worth it :(
 
Fuck off! I'm gutted. :(

When I came back the other week for first time in 10 months or whatever it was from what I was reading he seemed to be a full time smack head and when I left even though he was having problems with it I don't think he was that deep.

This board is tragic.
 
I just heard and I'm gutted. Never spoke personally or by pm, but in posts here on BL. Felt we had a lot in common. Liked the guys posts and who he seemed to be.

Really sad to hear this news, another life lost.
 
When i was doing oxy every weekend i used to feel lethargic and empty and shite after. reminded me of a meph comedown or something

theyre weird cos i dont really like them. haven't done them for nearly a month. but i crave them now and again for no reason. but i tell myself no after the amount of times theyve made me ill etc. load of bollocks
 
There are reasons why people use opiates though. It's not like everything's fine and dandy and you just decide to overuse drugs that are well known to be highly addictive and reliably deadly if you take a bit more than a recreational dose; maybe sometimes but not generally. What saddens me is that someone who knows full well what they're doing would choose to play fast and loose with their life. He should have had other options. No doubt he did have other options, but they should have been better, easier to follow. We all deserve that.

I don't mean other drug options, I mean other life options.
 
Yeah exactly

he had so much potential, such a waste

Im not sure if it was an accident od or suicide. bollocks to opiates
