Robin Williams Is Back In Rehab


The summer brings out swimsuits and apparently if you are a celebrity, a trip to rehab. Robin Williams checked himself into rehab last week in Minnesota. His people say it is to make sure he stays sober and that he hasn't slipped. Robin has long struggled with sobriety and has made multiple rehab visits. I think it was back in January I heard he was having some issues, but have not heard a peep since. Apparently the grind of working on a television series might have pushed him over the edge and into a slip. He does seem like the kind of guy who would do something like check into a place to stay sober rather than getting sober again. Maybe he just kept slipping but nothing out of hand. I also think he is too nice to say no to someone who wants a photo even though it doesn't look like he is that thrilled about it.

      I must have low standards, I thought he looked good but thin.

      Ha at low standards! It's been a long time since I've seen a pic, so to see him so thin was a little jarring. On 2nd glance, he doesn't look so bad.

      Man, I loved Mork back in the day.

    "Fair balls" is going to be my phrase of the day. I'm going to see how many times I can work it into conversation.

    Good for him for having the wherewithal to stay on top of his addictions.

    It actually isn't traditional rehab - it is a program that is to keep you on track if you feel like you may slip. I have a friend sober 12 years who went to it 2 years ago (at the same place - we are in MN) and she said it is an amazing program but it is definitely not because of a slip. So I say good for him for knowing he needs the help to not slip! As for the Dairy Queen - I would bet he never returns. He is probably not looking happy because he knows the picture will likely be spread all over the place, but he doesn't want to be an ass.

    "...the grind of working on a television series might have pushed him over the edge and into a slip."

    You're really going to tell us that being waited on hand and foot, spending most of the time on set in his trailer/dressing room, cashing big ass network checks and reading something someone else has written for you is so hard it caused him to go back to booze and drugs? Really? Really?

    What the fuck would these mongoloids do if they had to get a real job, work in a factory for a year or so, change bed pans on old people and dress their bed sores like a nurse has to do?

    I think all these "breakdowns" and crap are caused by the celebs mental state and not the "extreme" workload they are under. They realize they are fake, that they have no talent in the scheme of things. They don't create, they read out loud. The writers, directors, editors, etc CREATE in Hollywood but the people that get the big money, the ones who get the notoriety, the people the public cares about for some reason, are professional pretenders. They haven't outgrown playing dress up with their little sister from when they were 5. Even with the best Scientology levels their ill gotten gains can buy their mind still won't let them forget what fakes they are in reality. I love watching this type of thing happen to celebs. The need to be brought down to Earth more and be told "You aren't special! You are a dime a dozen, anyone can do the job you do. You want to really matter in the world? Go teach grades 1-12, having one student graduate because of something you taught them is worth more than Jack, Bicentennial Man, Hook, Popeye (what the fuck was that about anyway? A musical based on Popeye? I know he was in the Navy but he wasn't in the Village People's Navy fill of Semen.) and all you other movies combined."

    Real talk, Robin. Remember, the last time you really created something that you could claim as your own was back on the stage at Ha Ha's or Catch a Rising Star when you were fueled by coke and a wit that went 100 miles an hour. You want to still be in the entertainment business and not just be a trained parrot reading other people's lines? Then make that coke yours, accept it and become great again. until then, you'll always just be a shadow of the man that people loved 40 years ago.

    c'mon now The Real Rowdy One, we talked about this. No more ranting online for hours at a time. That's how your 7th kid drowned in the tub remember? Go check on the kids and no more crushed Oxy for breakfast.

    Anyway as someone who's worked with Robin I can say he is a very professional and polite individual, zero attitude, truly loves acting and the same person to the director down to the PA's. There's not a lot of stars you can say that about, so I wish him well.

    I was in a film making workshop with two guys who worked with him on Good Will Hunting. They had nothing but good things to say about Robin as well.

    Hey Kels, you can do like your grandma did and choke on my dick (Sorry I missed the funeral, but I still have my rule about never seeing a whore twice). Just be sure to keep your teeth in unlike she did, I like just a bit of tooth scraping when I pound your throat.

    I'm rooting for the hairy one. I think Robin is one of those guys who realises just how serious his addiction is and tries really hard to deal with it, even if he does slip occasionally.

    He's such a nice man. I met him at his half-brother's memorial a couple years ago. I think it's great he saw he needed help and went to get it.

    My uncle shared a room with Robin during one of his stints for booze. My uncle also often had pneumonia, smoked like a chimney and had a death-rattle cough. One of the first things Robin said to him (after a horrific coughing fit) was: "how long ya got?" assuming my uncle was terminally ill with some variety of lung or throat cancer. No other juicy tidbits to share, just that Robin was a really nice guy and very funny. Hopefully he's able to get back on or stay on the infamous wagon.
