"Moi is deeply saddened by the passing of my friend and fellow legend, Joan Rivers," Miss Piggy said in a statement on Thursday. "From our first appearance together as battling make-up counter girls in The Muppets Take Manhattan to our recent appearances together on QVC (Joan called it 'The Thrilla in Manolos'), we were always two of a kind. I will miss her. Can we talk? You bet we can, Joan! Forever and ever!"

    Let's ignore the talk of muppet nostalgia (what's the point anyway, Jim Henson did better stuff and so did his company if you want practical effects awesomeness) and think about this. It's on topic really, Joan Rivers was about as close to a lich as you get. Possibly even a demilich because let's be honest only necromancy can hold the skin on after that many surgeries and as we all know the news of a demilich dying is pretty damn big. Someone must have gotten to her soul container and casted greater heal on it.

    and don't get on my ass for talking about her like that, the woman was so gloriously self aware that she'd say the same thing.

    If I only had mod points ...

    +1 Funny.

    I was never a huge fan of Joan but I always loved how she didn't take herself too seriously. I remember many times she made comments about how much plastic surgery she had had and put the audience in stiches.

    I would like to think that she would have laughed at your comment and then made some incredibly sarcastic and scathing remark that would have everyone laughing about it even harder.

    RIP Joan, you will be missed. Even by some who weren't really fans.
