It's really a sadder story that way, as he probably didn't live what's considered to be a full life.But don't you find it really silly that they're crying over someone they didn't know existed until a few minutes ago?

I don't see how it's traumatic if it's over someone you never knew existed. To me it's like those people who have someone from their school become famous, or go into Miss America and everyone talks about how they were friends with that person, but didn't know who the hell they were until they discovered that person went to school with them.
Regarding that my classmate that died in her sleep, I find it disrespectful to her family and her actual friends (as little as she had) that all these people who hated her and felt disgusted to be around her all lied about how they were the closest friends 5evar, but none of them would give her the time of day. I think it's disrespectful for her loved ones that actually did care about her, because they're pretty much just faking it so they wouldn't look bad. If someone I hated died, I'm not gonna jump on his Facebook memorial and say "bawww we were such close friends!!! RIP"
What would you think if someone from your school that you knew everyone hated died in a car accident and then everyone then acted like they were his best friend?
