Chris Pratt offers prayers for Kevin Smith after his heart attack. Internet attacks.

Posted by Strongbad (aka Rambler14) Mar 2 '18, 03:54

Kevin Smith checked in with his fans and thanked them for their well-wishes after he suffered a massive heart-attack on Sunday night.
...

'It's actually getting more blood flow and oxygen than it has in a long time. So I am ALERT, to say the least! Thank you for all the kind words, folks -- from Vegetarian Kev, Day 2!'

Smith also defended actor Chris Pratt in a Facebook Live video after the actor came under fire after tweeting that he was praying for Smith.

'Poor Chris Pratt, one of my favorite actors on the planet, f*****g put up a nice tweet, where he's just like "Hey man, I don't know you that much but I love 'Clerks' and I'm praying for you" and and apparently people were like, 'F**k your prayers' and attacked him and s**t,' he said.

'And number one, thanks to Chris Pratt, how sweet was that,' he continued. 'Number two, please don't fight over stuff like that. It's a waste of time. Whether you're religious or not, someone saying "I'll pray for you," it's good intentions.'

    - And where did you get the 7 number from? -- nm - Strongbad Mar 2, 09:40
    - Ummmmm..... - Strongbad Mar 2, 06:59

  - yup, right after the shooting; the backlash against the shooting thoughts and prayers just carried over -- nm - Beaker Mar 2, 05:06 1
    - That's exactly what it was. People are just tired of the thoughts and prayers that people send though in this case they attacked wrongly. -- nm - Krusty Mar 2, 05:49
The Internet is dumb. -- nm - znufrii Mar 2, 04:25
I wonder if this is one of those things where 7 people did it and it became "the Internet". -- nm - Reagen Mar 2, 04:06 5
- That's what I'm kinda thinking. The article I read a few days ago only actually quoted two tweets. -- nm - Ender Mar 2, 05:54
- Haven't looked to determine the final number, but evidently it was a large enough issue that Kevin Smith felt the need to address it. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 2, 04:07 3
  - Well at that point he's responding as much to Gunn's response and the media coverage... -- nm - Ender Mar 2, 05:55
  - But again, a few people can feel like a lot in a thread. -- nm - Reagen Mar 2, 04:10 1
    - 100% agree. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 2, 04:12
