Tired of all the 110 club fanboys i assume.

Japanese roboticist Masahiro Mori who identified the concept of Uncanny valley in 1970 is alive and 96 next month. Mentioned by Summer in Transylvania last year. Bonus: British art critic, curator and art gallery director Jasia Reichardt who translated the term to English is also alive and 90 this year. As far as I know not mentioned here before.

Kevin Costner, the stoic American actor, film director, musician and producer, a splendid film star for a brief time in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and whose first film as an actor was the independent film "Malibu Hot Summer", which was filmed in 1978 and released in 1981, is 68 today. Enrico Lo Verso, the noted Italian film, stage and television actor, who made his feature film debut in 1989, and whose breakthrough role was Gino, an Italian swindler, in Gianni Amelio's internationally acclaimed film "L'America" (1994), is 59 today. Enrico Lo Verso had a small role in Ridley Scott's thriller "Hannibal", which was shot mostly in Italy.

Huge breaking news tonight as Jay Briscoe has passed away, per this tweet from Tony Khan.

Some of the mysteries besides some of the above which I'm sometimes wondering about: 1. Who built the moʻai statues on Easter Island? 2. To what extent did stadtholder Willem III (the later King William III of England) know about the lynching of the brothers (Johan & Cornelis) De Witt in 1672? 3. The death of Rudolf Diesel in 1913. 4. The identity of Tank Man and what happened to him during/after the Tiananmen protests. Did the government get him, is he still alive somewhere? And some existential mysteries I don't expect ever being found out or confirmed: 5. How did the universe come to be and perhaps on a more philosophical note, why? 6. What is the meaning of life and does there exist some version of an afterlife? (I'm of the opinion it's unlikely there is a greater plan or afterlife, but the thought of some place where you could reunite with your loved ones after you pass away would be wonderful)

Thought you got me muted Sir Cunto?

Her and I

Fuckin tune! One of very few with non-English lyrics I can actually sing along with (preferably in the car, sans passengers)

I know/knew most of the apostles before becoming a Judas Iscariotesque pariah and getting the boot. I’ll tell you who they are for 30 pieces of silver. I’d like to know where we mislaid the 1988 list, how many candidates we chose, and whether it was as bad as the other early ones.

Rest in Peace Lucile Randon. Newcomer is Ushi Makishi. 1. Maria Branyas Morera 2. Fusa Tatsumi 3. Edie Ceccarelli 4. Tomiko Itooka 5. Inah Canabarro Lucas 6. Hazel Plummer 7. Kimiko Ono 8. Yasue Okai 9. Nina Willis 10. Ushi Makishi Not only is the oldest living person is 115, the top 10 now seems to be a particularly frail group: Tatsumi, Plummer, Okai and Willis are pretty much bedbound, Ceccarelli suffers from dementia, Makishi hasn't been seen in a while, MBS and Canabarro Lucas both as far as I know had some health scares in 2022 and while otherwise seemingly healthy Itooka survived a stroke and brain surgery at around 110. At #11, Shinobu Hayashi isn't validated atleast yet. Juan Vicente Perez Mora is at #13, we'll see if he makes it to the top ten.

Lucille Randon dead at 118, 3 weeks before turning 119.

1. Who killed 6 year old Jon Benet? 2. Was George H. W. Bush and/or LBJ or others involved in the JFK assassination? 3. What really happened to Jimmy Hoffa? (Witness Protection or murdered?) 4. The truth about Aliens and inner-Earth dwellers, if there actually is a cover-up going on. 5. As mentioned above, did Wagner murder Natalie Wood? 6. Is Elvis still alive? 7. Are there military human-bases (alien bases perhaps) on the moon and/or Mars? Was there a massacre of many humans on the Mars bases done by the indigenous inhabitants? 8. Did 4 out-of-control AI robotic-soldiers kill over 20 military scientists and Staff in Japan a while back?

There's certainly more chance of Kissinger seeing 2024 than there is of North Korea agreeing to give up its nuclear weapons.

1. Where is Georgeann Hawkins? Ted Bundy identified her remains, but the corpse was so skeletal and maimed it was impossible to confirm his claim. 2. The disappearance of V. V. Sadagopan. 3. Whatever happened to Amelia Earhart? 4. What happened to the woman in the polka dot dress at Bobby Kennedy's assassination, if she even existed? Jack the Ripper, Lars Mittank, the JFK assassination conspiracy theories, and Jimmy Hoffa also intrigue me.

Thread locked. Politicians thread is sufficient for discussing him.

Fantastic write up and let's just have a moment to thank everyone who works on the DDP - in January especially it effectively becomes a second job, and to go through that second job without telling people to fuck off on this forum is a Herculean effort. And yeah, I can't be disappointed with that as a year. The DDP is the industry standard when it comes to deadpooling, and that's down to two things: the aforementioned committee and the players themselves. Standards go up year on year around here - long gone are the days when that nutjob who used to camp outside parliament would be a unique hit. A mid-table DDPer sent back 10 years could easily be a podium placer such is the quality of research, celebrity knowledge and game theory that can be found on this forum. I'm a competitive fuck so La Sexta is always going to be the aim, but I go into tournaments now thinking "well, there's 50 potential winners out there, top 30 would be a respectable finish" rather than "there are 5 potential winners out there, I really hope I podium". Funny how the only time of the year we can really talk strategy on here is January, as the longer the season goes on the more people want to keep their cards close to their chests for the following campaign. Still think the value of a guaranteed 90-99 hit is underrated by the average player, and am more and more onboard with defensive play these days. Anyway, let's play us out with a second song:

I remember when I found out about this guy I spent hours finding out if he was somehow related to legendary rally driver Colin McRae, Never found anything to prove it though.

Better than original?

As said in every year: some of them are on a global perspective too insignificant and not spectacular enough, too much UK-heavy. Would be great thinking more globally. I like some new good choices like Boutros Boutros Ghali, Jacques Chirac, Jimmy Carter.

Isn't that yet another TTHR actor to snuff in the last year or so?

At first I thought that was a photo of John Hurt.

Didn't you have the balls to write 'W'ANKER'? I did but im getting pissed off with not being able to type it straight off. He is still a w*nker/w'anker, however its typed. Fair enough. And not only is he a w'anker, he's a one-eyed Scottish w'anker at that. All he needs now is to turn ginger and discover Welsh roots, and he'll be a total and utter c'unt Thats my Lardy! Not only is Brown a w'anker, you have also insulted the one eyed, the Scottish, Gingers, the Welsh and c'unts. How dare you associate those with that prat!!! You forgot to mention a facial tic and a sh*t dress sense too. Isn't he meant to be a transvestite too? Going off topcic, we had some nutter want to open a bank account for "his favourite boat" today. Nutter A transvestite?!? My God, first its the Una Stubbs rumour now its Gordon. Just what sites do you frequent Handy? Handy, you were not going off topic, thats what this thread is all about, by all means meander.... Many nutters on you Island? Oh about 80, 000. Re Gordon Brown's possible transvestism, I'm almost certain I first read it here. I think the Pooka or someone may have made reference to it. Ah, the Pooka, lovely fella he was. RIP. Is he really dead? I have no idea. Im sure it was you who told me that. How would we know anyway? I dont think anybody knew who he really was? No, I said I thought I'd heard that Olveres or whatever his name was, was dead. You only like Pooka cos his picture reminds you of what you used to look like in the 70s. When you were 30 Pissing taking bastard! I was not 30 in the 1970s, however, I will concede that I did have lots and lots of hair.
