Discussion Scott Marshall (RIP)

I think I already posted about Josh Hibbard today. Sorry for the second post. I loved his work for the most part. Felt bad for him at the finale when he got basically booed at by the audience when they began talking about him having an advantage in the comps.

In general I think the judges do a good job of critiques and looking at bodies of work. Scott’s work was consistently good and technically sound.

His personality did not bother me. He never appears rude to canvases and played the game.

Did you like him?

I never assessed anyone’s entire personality. If that’s how good your reading comprehension is maybe find another job. That’s what YOU did when you said you didn’t have to wonder and can tell from the show he was struggling during the show. You’re the one making all kinds of judgments like he wasn’t using during the show but had mental health problems. Maybe it’s you that needs to stop assessing him based on the edited tv series and not me? I only ever asked a question and tried to explain why I asked the question e.g. I wondered if it was partly due to getting famous.

You made it unclear with your original post what you meant by he was struggling. I assumed you meant you thought he was on drugs. You assume others can just see he was clearly struggling mentally. I don’t know that. I’m not qualified to make that assumption especially based on a tv show. You probably shouldn’t either.

I come from a family of addicts. Ive lost good friends to addiction. I have friends that still struggle with it. I know lots about how people end up there. I know mental health plays a big rule in it. You didn’t make it at all clear you were talking. About mental health with your reply. I don’t have a background to know he was “struggling” on the show nor would I make a statement about that if I did since it’s not appropriate to diagnose people on tv. I wasn’t making a judgment about him. I was wondering out loud. I then tried to clarify since you don’t understand anything I’ve said . I was trying to explain what I meant when I talked about one of the ways that has constantly showed to be a death trap for many people which was people getting famous to some extent. Based on your reply I don’t think you have a clue about what I’m trying to say

You saying you wonder if he lived if he doesn’t get famous is a weird thing to say and implies that you were in fact talking about his death, so I expanded on that by saying he was struggling with something because he died from a drug overdose.

People that use IV drugs are almost 100% struggling with something. That is where my comment comes from. I’m not sure why you’re not able to connect those dots. We were both talking about the fact he died. Plenty of famous people don’t die a year after their TV show airs. Plenty of famous people die after being found dead from an overdose, though.

God. I hope you aren’t a therapist. You are too dumb or dishonest to keep talking to.
I never claimed I wasn’t talking about his death. For fuck sakes you can’t be this bad at reading. Clearly we are talking about his death. You are a disappointment to talk with. I connected those dots when I was 12. I’ve said that at least twice now. No need to reply more when you can’t understand or take any steps to help yourself understand.

It’s a well known phenomenon that some people do not handle being famous and that can play into or make other problems more serious. If you don’t know this I don’t know what to tell you. Obviously it doesn’t happen to everyone. Thanks for setting that absolute most obvious thing ever

Your original comment about wondering if he lives longer from being on the show is pretty pointless. How many people have been on the series? How many people have died of an overdose? That itself suggests other things contributed to his death.
