Dead Pool 2019

xp I find it easier to divide lists up into 5s (it’s also an ice thing)

*ocd ffs

might need a bit of friendly help from ISIS as well as death to push you above the playoffs.

summary execution of every royal family in Western Europe, long overdue eruption of the Yellowstone supervolcano — I'm not too picky about the method as long as I get to claim my fake internet points

Don’t put these curses on enya and lindsay lohan xps

Olivia Newton-John
John McCririck
Artie Lange
Rishi Kapoor
Jordan Peterson

(5/15)

I'll do the rest later.

Jordan Peterson

Come on, scurvy!

Andrew Anglin (fascist)
James Alex Fields Jr. (murderer)
Ronald Gray (serial killer)
Tony Cox
Bushwick Bill
John McAfee
Penn Jillette
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
"Lulu" and "Nana" (2)

Started writing one of these but stopped. I feel like its bad karma.

One of the spookier times in these threads was during the 2009 pool when this happened.

I'm so bad at this game, I don't think I've ever scored a single point.

You realize you were the only person that picked Michael Jackson, right? The timing is almost eerie.

Kirk Douglas is 101 so if he finally snuffs it this year unperson will score -1 point

BTW the Tony Cox on my list is the Bad Santa actor, b. 1958.

Do we allow everyone time to put Billy Connolly in, or just give everyone 34 points?

And apparently Jeremy Hardy too, according to his twitter

imo we trust everyone to be sporting about foregonely conclusive goners & leave them off

while there are still Royals to brown-nose + curtsy to, there might still be some life left in the Big Yin yet, and he might have an epic poem to write (about his extraordinary odyssey up Prince Charles' butthole).

upvoted u for racism

I found that viz cartoon about him being a bungling royal broon-noser totally hilarious at the time tbh.

Quite rightly.

Since we've been talking about the miraculous survival of Clive James this morning, let us not forget his repulsive drooling and slavering over Princess Diana.

before or after

lol! he should have given the paramedics a chance.

imo we trust everyone to be sporting about foregonely conclusive goners & leave them off

It's true, this is a gentle-person's game.
Replace Penn Jillette with Billy Connolly on my list.

Prince Philip
Genesis P-Orridge

Pele

almost if not all of my picks were originals, because it's more important for me to be the only one who was right about one of these people than it is to win the competition.

Billy Connolly now says he's not dying, but I'll stick with him.

if someone convinces him the afterlife is populated with royals waiting to be brown-nosed + curtseyed to, and receptive tv audiences that laugh at every witless utterance from a complete bellend, that cunt will be booking dignitas check-up already.

Walton seems happy and healthy these days. That pick was more to prepare myself for the terrifying fact that some day he will be gone from this world.

Harvey Weinstein
Phil Lesh
Julie Andrews
Wolf Blitzer

Betty White
Frank Oz
Chevy Chase
John Madden
Macaulay Culkin

John Mellencamp

I don't think Billy Connolly ever meant to insinuate he was a prime dead pool candidate, which is why I didn't pick him.

Houellebecq looks quite deathly these days, but that prick tries so hard to die both in his novels and garbage unwatchable doc movies, you get the feeling it is all part of his tryhard shtick he will be one of them classic evil racist paedos that lives well into their 90's.

Walt Goggins won't die for decades, handsome skinny fuckers never feel like dying!

This, and a post on the oldest person thread, makes me think I don't know the dead pool rules.

(oh, they are in the first post)

ET got Peter Tork and Jan-Michael Vincent.

^ You're not doing too badly yourself, what with John McCririck and Bushwick Bill on your list.

I had Valerie Harper.

So yeah I'm calling abanana for this, but I'll await the official count. I got Clive James and David Bellamy.

Goose egg. L’chaim!

John McCririck - age 79
Bushwick Bill - age 52

I got 69 points.

i got 5 (for mugabe)
