It  is with grieved hearts that we announce the loss of a wonderful writer, great friend, loving father, unique comedian and irreplaceable soul, Marcos Figueroa. 

Marcos ‘Marky Figs’ Figueroa passed away early this morning after a traffic accident on I-55 in Plainfield, Illinois.   According to CBS Chigaco, the accident took place after the car he was driving became disabled and was struck at highway speeds by a semitruck.  He was lifeflighted to an area hospital, where he passed away.  Marcos was 26.

Marcos Figueroa gained critical acclaim and renown through various forms of social media, one of his best analyzed works being the deconstructive piece on the pots-and-pan clanker Skrillex and how he somehow managed to win a Grammy Award.

While we were all shocked and disgusted with how Skrillex could actually win at anything with but a communist Apple computer that could miraculously run Audacity without 50 code tweaks, it took the skilled pen and words of Marcos Figueroa to inspire Reverend Mark E. Figs’ globally famous sermon Skrillex Uses Homosexual and Satanic Influences To Win Grammy.

To this very day, shocked Skrillex fans cry and shake with horror at the revelations revealed in that expert piece of journalism.  Such was the talent of Marcos:  he always left his audience wide-mouthed, somewhat smiling and with something to talk about for the rest of the day.

Our friend, we will miss you and wish peace for your family during this time.  You will be missed and can never be replaced.  May angels lead you in, our friend.  And keep them laughing up in heaven.

    While I don’t agree with all of his opinions, it is tragic that this happened. He was so young, and I can sympathize with his family’s loss as a good friend of my family’s passes away four years ago two weeks before Christmas. He was only 22. hopefully all of his friends and family will remember the good times they had with him. R.I.P.

    Okay…You CAN’T make dubstep with audacity. Trust me, I’ve tried. Skrillex doesn’t USE audacity.

    it took the skilled (Oh, STFU) pen and words of Marcos Figueroa to inspire Reverend Mark E. Figs’ globally famous (Globally known as outrageously dumb) sermon Skrillex Uses Homosexual and Satanic Influences To Win Grammy.

    To this very day, shocked Skrillex fans cry and shake with horror (fuc.k yeah, we are shocked by insanity, just like any other normal guy) at the revelations revealed in that expert (Comedy gold) piece of journalism. Such was the talent of Marcos: he always left his audience wide-mouthed, (Fuc.k yeah he did. I’m not being nice when I say that.) somewhat smiling (Laughing out loud) and with something to talk about for the rest of the day. (I could go on for hours about how that article was a piece of shi.t.)

      • And here I was hoping you died long ago. Hadn’t heard from you for so long, I actually forgot who you were for a moment. Sadly, you apparently are alive and kicking.
