WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD.
JK, it's been nine years. Get it together.
Unbelievably, it's been NINE whole years since Degrassi lost its shining angel, J.T. Yorke.
As we are all pained to remember, our sweet boy was stabbed by a hoodlum from goddamned Lakehurst.
AND THEN HE DIED. BEFORE HE COULD GET BACK TOGETHER WITH LIBERTY.
And it seemed like it only took the Degrassi Community School, like, three minutes to put a memorial together.
They even had a huge portrait painted of J.T., somehow.
But what about those of us who are still grieving? Who are still in pain?!
There are thousands, millions, BILLIONS of people still mourning to this day.
I'm still not over jt's death on degrassi
bro I'm still trippin over JT's death in degrassi
i cant stop thinking about JT from degrassi why did he have to die why did god forsaken us
JT geting shot was literally the most emotional episode of Degrassi 😭😭😭 I still haven't recovered from his death
(I mean, he was stabbed, not shot, but the emotions are still real.)
Some people are still coping with J.T.'s death using dark humour.
Others deal by lighting a candle in J.T.'s memory.
But maybe it's important that we still feel this pain. So that we'll always remember.
Rest in peace, J.T. We miss you each and every day.
NEVER FORGET.
