Why he might be annoying:

    He dropped out of high school at age 15 to become a gay prostitute in New York City.
    He became addicted to several different drugs.
    After moving to Los Angeles and making a name for himself he started spreading rumors about his relationships with gay men in the entertainment industry.
    One of his interviews involved David Geffen's plea to him to stop using drugs (who was 'outed' shortly afterwards).
    Predictably, between his drug use and lots of unprotected sex, he became HIV positive.
    When film roles dried up, he stripped at gay nightclubs and offered services as a paid escort.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was ruggedly handsome with a chiseled physique.
    When his father died, he lost his guiding light and hero, then drifted into the world of street hustling.
    As an in demand adult film star, he earned as much as $1,500 for a single sex scene.
    In 1991, he won an AVN (Adult Video News) Award for 'Best Actor-Gay Video.'
    He was featured in Madonna's 1992 book 'Sex' and its accompanying video.
    Dying alone in a squalid Hollywood Boulevard motel room, he was flown back to Pennsylvania and laid to rest next to his beloved father.
