I hereby award Corporal Spiny the DL Old Crem Commemorative Medal for Gallantry for his brave yet suicidally foolhardy mission of starting this thread.

If all notable foreigners were posted just there I couldn't be arsed to sift through all that, anyway. That "other" German thread you mention probably is out there somewhere, I fail to find it though. So basically this here is the general German/A-CH thread now, it just randomly also happens to have a list of 50 mentioned in it that someone left lying around accidentally. Have to dispute that, of course: Our list has been compiled in strict accordance with the up-to-datest science of deathlistry, as should be expected on this forum!

Making overpriced headphones.

No more sodding threads

Well done GC Reptile - a truly great win. Good luck to all in 2021. I might dip my toe back in with a theme team in 2022.

Oxtail soup. Next!

Exactly what is his doctorate in? (Whoever he is )

Dead RIP.

Ivanka Trump's father looks kinda haggard on tv lately. He might be the male Jackie Stallone of this year

Ah good, we are joined by yet another hyper-aggressive twat. Your name doesn't contain any variation of 'kenny' does it? Are you US based? Are you over 20? Take your time.

W’all didn’t give enough of a shit

Ladies and Gents, Boys and Girls, we have a flouncer. Watch out the door doesn't hit you in the arse on the way out.

I think Mario Frick may actually be the most famous person from Liechtenstein.

Brilliant, great comic timing, absolutely nailed this joke.

A former colleague of mine who was Russian was dating someone who was very big in the local rotary club and he took her to one of these garden parties as his plus 1. Before the event she went round everyone in the lab asking what you wear to such an event. As if we were ever likely to know.

You'd have thought she would have predicted this.

In fairness though there is actually a killer virus doing the rounds this time round. :D

I note that both democrats are currently winning in Georgia with about 40% of votes counted. In the spirit of Trump's democracy, is it acceptable to stop counting the votes now?

I'm in excellent health so my celebrity status (or lack of) would be of no interest anyway.

New oldest first-class cricketer is an Indian (again), Raghunath Chandorkar (wiki), turned 100 in November.

Jean Harlow (died 1937) as well.

I have had an account for seven years and lurked 3 years before that and think your assessment is pretty much on the money.

A horse, but a very notable one: 1998 breeders cup winner (the horse) Awesome Again dead at 26. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Awesome_Again Died at an Old Friends Equine "retirement home" for horses. Other notable horses that live in Old Friends homes include 1996 breeders cup winner Alphabet Soup, animal actor Popcorn Deelites known from the Seabiscuit movie (played Seabiscuit) and Zippy Chippy, a horse known for holding the record of most losses in modern racing.

Why not make it permanent?

I guess they are not coming to dinner?
