I'm quite new here, but I am familiar with the concept of deathpools. This one has few rules. You need to choose 250 you think won't be alive on 1st of January 2022. The only rules are that they have to be atleast 18 years old at the time you have chosen them and they have to have an English wikipedia page. Only 20 can be centenarians and ten can be animals, if they happen to have an wikipedia page. The animals don't have to be 18 but animals over 100 count as centenarians. Under 50-year olds are worth 3 points, animals are worth two and over 50-year olds are worth 1 point. You can join whenever you want so I recommend joining right now. After 00:00 GMT 1st of January 2022 the points shall be counted and whoever has the most points wins this. My list: 1. Jonathan, oldest living terrestial animal in the world and turtle, 188. 2.

I think it'll be just you and Lewdy in this one.

I think it is just 249, since Muhammad al-Fayadh and Mohamed Al-Fayed seem to be the same person, or?

I'm pretty sure Ray Othen died 3rd April 2016. Cross-referencing the Top of the Pops Facts Twitter account using the same photo as this Facebook page and the mentions of him working for the Royal Mail. That guy was also Facebook friends with a Bob White from Southampton who looks like it was his old bandmate.

Sure! I can share one. SirC went to his physician and complained about pain in the area of his pancreas, and said physician (65 yrs old or so) left and returned with his Gray’s Anatomy from his med school days, all tanned and written in, and sat with SirC and discussed the pancreas at large for 10 minutes. SirC

Far, far too many for me. And I greatly prefer pools where the entries are kept under wraps until the start date. So thank you, but I won't be participating in this.

Well, I am not all of those things, so .....

Hi, I'm the ice cream man, I went to school with Nigel Fairservice... Bit annoyed the video's not on youtube to link, tbh...

Steve Grossman, American Saxophonist, has reportedly died aged 69.

Hi guys, this is Kenny’s cousin. Just gonna leave this here and hope one of you apologises

I think we should all just repurpose the techy thread to fight in. Or there's the Chirac thread for utter insane ramblings. Is there is mod power button to quarantine certain posters in? There might be.

Yeah, but it's a fair guess ten years younger than he is would still be way older than her dad!

But he's arrived at the right conclusion hasn't he? Both accounts have the same named person in their email address. On a separate note, regularly referring to another member's sexuality says more about you than it does about him in my opinion. Some - myself included - might consider the tone of your post to be verging on harassment. I would ask you to reflect on that for a while and perhaps moderate your posting style accordingly. Otherwise I'll do it for you.

I don't care that much about what he is, for me his only purpose is to die within the next year and three months. I need to know nothing more about him.

I got pretty tired after writing that list for over two hours. Could've instead have called him a far-right drug addict.

Algerian footballer Said Amara dead at 87

I live in a Muslim country and if you think young girls have a choice on whether they can wear a burqa or for that matter have their vagina mutilated in FGM, then unfortunately you are incorrect. They have no choice, the parents decide for them. If they try to object they are subjected to unbearable social pressure from family and school and told they are bad people. What 5 year old could fight against that. I've seen it too many times at first hand and it is really depressing. And no I don't see anything wrong with kids being forced to wear formal clothes for school which allow their faces to be seen and for them to interact with others.

Should kids be forced to wear this...?
