That must have been quite the scene.

What is "chronic mono"? Is one of his speakers not working?

The whining little shit should be left out in the cold. Interesting predictions. Problem is Markle was a second rate actress who never made the big time. Yes she may fancy herself as being a senior royal (which she never was) but don’t forget she is pushing 40. Her acting career is as good as over. Pencil Fergie II for I’m a Celebrity 2025. Her whole family are trash, so I don’t know why anyone expected any different from her. As for him: he needs to get a grip and realise he’s not the only kid in the world whose mum died. As another commentator pointed out, after visiting land mine victims and victims of other horrendous practices in Africa you’d think they’d realise their lot in life was not a bad one. Couple of self-obsessed, selfish arseholes.

Good riddance, I hope the pair of them fuck off abroad never to be seen again.

Heard "(I Don't Know Why) But I Do" by Clarence "Frogman" Henry in a commercial tonight and looked it up since I could not remember who sung it or the exact name of the song. Recognized his name and thought "wasn't he one of those born in the 1910s, died 30-40 years ago types?" only to find out he was born in 1937 and still alive.

There’s a quote I like that goes something like this. A woman marries a man expecting him to change whereas a man marries a woman expecting her to stay the same and they both end up disappointed.

I find it extraordinary that anybody would take on Harry in full knowledge that certain things will be expected of her, and almost immediately start whimpering about the shit that comes with it. She knew that she would be at the mercy of the media (social and gutter press). She knew all the background of Harry's mother and how she exploited the media and then whined when it bit her in the arse. WHAT THE FUCK DID SHE EXPECT?

INVERSE DEAD POOL 2020 Another new year arrives, and with that comes another round of reckoning the lingering prowess of the DDP's most popular selections. Of the 16 expiries throughout 2019, drol only selected 3 and notched his second win in the process. Rules From the list of the 50 most popular DDP picks of 2020, pick a team of 25 names who you think will survive the year. Rank your list in order of least likely to die to most likely to die. Post your team in this thread. If someone dies and they are listed on your team, then you will receive points according to their position. If your #1 pick dies you'll receive 25 points, whilst if your #25 pick dies you'll receive 1 point. If someone dies and they are not on your list, then you receive no points. In case one of the names available for entry dies before the submission deadline, you are allowed to have one sub. The sub can be anyone from the top 50 or the 51st most popular name, who will be revealed alongside the top 50. The 51st name can not be part of the original 25 if no one dies. In the case of one of your original team dying pre-deadline, the sub goes into 25th place by default, but if the sub was previously the 51st, you are allowed to change the position of the new pick. If the above scenario happens, you are also allowed to name a new sub and I will reveal the 52nd most popular name. Whoever has the lowest score at the end of the year is the winner. If two or more teams are tied at the end of the year, the tie will first be decided by who has less hits. If they have an equal amount of hits, then whoever among the teams died latest in the year, and thus came closest to being a correct prediction, will decide the winner. If said name was on multiple teams in the tie, whoever had said name lowest will win. If multiple teams had said name in the same position, the second most recently-deceased name will be referred to, and so on, until a winner is found. If, by some alignment of the stars, the tie is of either no hits or of all of the exact same hits in the exact same positions, all teams in the tie share victory.

I doubt this will affect her health. I mean it’s only a 50/50 chance that the ginger cunt her actual grandson due to his whore of a mother. If Prince Andrew were to be a proven paedo though...apparently her favourite son...you can see that affecting her. I’d imagine at the moment she believes his excuses, just as most mothers would.

My first hit of the year.

Buck Henry, the screenwriter behind the Graduate and the co-creator of Get Smart, has died. He was 89. https://deadline.com/2020/01/buck-henry-dead-saturday-night-live-the-graduate-get-smart-1202825337/

Karen Simpson died January 4 - https://www.buryfreepress.co.uk/news/theatre-royal-bury-st-edmunds-boss-karen-simpson-dies-after-cancer-battle-9095639/

Actually, the cancer has a 95% success rate. The cure is at 5%.

 Pancreatic cancer has a 5% success rate. I doubt that old bat is cancer free, she’s just buying for time. Her death will be this elections October surprise.

Wishing Stephen Sondheim a quick recovery (despite the fact that I have him on my death-by-numbers list ). Jean Paul Belmondo was hurt after a fall recently & I certainly would miss him too. I remember Charles Aznavour & Eddie Fisher who survived just a few days after they fell out of bed. --------------- King Harald of Norway has been hospitalized yesterday He'd also been ill during the Christmas holidays, but the palace officials claimed he is not suffering from anything serious. https://www.newsinenglish.no/2020/01/08/king-harald-admitted-to-hospital/

Legend of musicals Stephen Sondheim has had a serious fall.

It seems it was a surprise announcement. The rest of the Royal Family learned of it when the statement was posted. I feel the Duke of Edinburgh might get behind the wheel just one more time...

What was that for? Let me be clear, I don't envy these women their position at all. I just have no respect for anyone who takes something on in full knowledge of what it entails, and then throws hissy fits about it. The people I do respect are those who are wise enough to realise that they wouldn't be comfortable or happy in the job, and so graciously decline. Like Chelsey Davy did.

Thank you Wormfarmer for hosting! It's a definitely a different game, and the balancing between high scores and waiting until the very end is something new and interesting. I only think it could use some tweaking, for example, it should be forbidden to wait posting your team until you can get a lucky surefire hit in the middle of the month because of someone in a crash, shooting, etc... A new month's team should be posted on the 1st day of the next month at latest. Otherwise, yeah, very slow final two months. I had two non-obits in the final month, and I should have chosen different people. Thankfully, the strongest opponents didn't do better. Also, both times, it was very close. As I said before, I have to cut my involvement a little and the possible 15-30 minutes updating the DDP scores around 3 times a week have to come from somewhere. So I will not be participating in a possible 2020 version of this pool.

I wouldn't be surprised if Vazquez dies next year. His presidential mandate finishes on February 29th. In fact, there are two other former Uruguay presidents who have a reasonable chance of dying in 2020: Julio Maria Sanguinetti (he turns 84 in January) and "rock star" Pepe Mujica, currently 84.

Fair to say a bit of a short Tuesday.

He needs to divorce this cunt asap. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-50119219

Apparently Meghan Markle is 'existing not living'. All those around the world trips on private jets and hundreds of thousands of pounds of taxpayers money on clothes and jewellery. Dream weddings to a prince, attending sporting finals,having a millions of pounds on taxpayers money put into renovating their cottage ,nannies and servants is existing? What a fucking horrible person I hope she and Harry fuck off and stay fucked off. Some women are lucky if they can even afford one a cheap wedding dress in their lifetime, or can buy themselves a set of news clothes in a year. Having no disposable income and spending it on bills and food and having nowhere to go is existing not living. Worrying constantly if you can afford gifts or birthday presents for loved ones. Some can't even afford an economy flight for their family to Spain let alone private jets. Harry wants to leave the UK, I really hope he does and fucks of with Meghan. I do wonder if William and kate are going to have 4 children (essentially replacing the two Harry would of had) and Harry will leave the Royal family. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/lifestyle/news/article.cfm?c_id=6&objectid=12278207

1. Fred Durst must die!!! I hate him ohhhh do I hate him. 2. The entire Bush family. 3. The New York Yankees.
