2016 is still not done. Before we lost George Michael, Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds this week, we lost someone who's probably had just as big an impact on our lives, though you've never heard of him:
Robert Leo Hulseman.
He's the man who invented the red Solo cup, staple at every party ever. He died last week at age 84.
The Solo Cup Company was the family business -- Hulseman's dad started it in 1936 -- and Hulseman started working in the company factory when he was 18, according to his obit on Legacy.com.
Aside from a few tragedies most of the people who died were close to or past the age of death. People love to idolize and pretend like they know these people.
