Five years ago you could barely go a day without seeing someone joke about "brown bread, WHOLE MEAL" or "cupla tomato" or "locally grown". We all knew the Irish sandwich guy. His name was Michael O Muircheartaigh. He died this week. It is unthinkable to me, patently unthinkable, that this person who was so dear to us and so central to our collective experience as ASMR listeners and creators could pass away, and that a post about it would get no more than a single comment. But of course it got buried under the relentless pile of self-promotion that makes up 99.9% of this sub now. It is equally unthinkable to me that a simple reminder to, I dunno, pay respects to this centerpiece of our subculture would then get downvoted to zero. I don't care about the useless karma points, but seriously, am I crazy??? to think that we could all take a few seconds to remember this person??? Is everyone gonna flake when John Butler dies too?

Oh, I've seen this guy with the sandwich video. I am sad to hear about his passing, but I don't think he was a "pillar" of the ASMR community, I did enjoy the one video where he makes a sandwich. I'm sorry to hear about him passing away. He did seem to make a mean sandwich!
