6 pointsNow let's stop this silliness. New or recent members always have issues as to where to pitch their posts on here. I recall a gypsy woman, silver spangles...no wait. I recall being that guy. There is little point in allowing people to post things and then after a while jump on them for doing so, without a little time or patience in trying to achieve a balance in that person's posting. Who knows? That 1940s/50s film might throw up a name people who many will have thought long dead (and may be so, but nobody took the time to check). Horses - well, that's only a reflection of people who do post about horse deaths (and bloody dogs and meme characters). This can be an insane place at times. But the inmates should try and get along. I've taken the time to have a chat to see if diego can be a little more targeted in posting here - they are not out to cause disruption, and it is a question of understanding people's interests. I'm not interested in Doge the dog or Jill Biden's dress. But I understand some people are. My obsessions with Eurovision and Grange Hill may get to grating at times - 3rd backing dancer for Norway in 1992, you say? Well done Willz, have a pill and a lie down. Laugh, love and live and do your best. We are all dust in due course, let's not make the road there more dusty than it needs to be. IMO.

2 pointsAnd that's fine. If you're interested, cool. Nobody is saying you shouldn't be. However, you must understand that posting relentlessly about them is going to be grating to people. You clearly have a much lower bar for "interesting" than most people. You can privately make as many lists as you like, but try and curate what you post here to only be things that might actually be interesting for others to read. Above all, please take care of yourself. Stop with this deprecation of yourself - sympathy won't be forthcoming, and it's not healthy. Love yourself and your quirks without feeling like criticism from people you don't know destroys your worth.

2 pointsNobody is insignificant @diego and you should probably work on how you feel about yourself etc with a therapist or something. Just know you will probably not get any sympathy from the internet, when you are moaning about how bad you feel or how bullied you feel etc (believe me i've been there). Especially when you have already annoyed most of the forum with your "likes" when you first joined. Having spent an unhealthy amount of time on the internet myself over the last 20+ years since I was a teenager. I know for a fact that the more you try and beg for sympathy or whatever, the less you will get. You have to earn people's trust, make mutual friendship with people etc. Once you have developed some kind of friendship with online folks, THEN they would be more open to trying to help you out more (either for personal issues or help around the forum etc). Things to think about when posting about someone is: - How big is their wikipedia - Will they get an obituary that one of the deadpools would consider a hit. From one possibly autistic person to another possible autistic person. I have been where you have been where you need things explained for you and then 2 youtube tutorials. Sometimes you just need to accept that it won't get explained in the way you need it and move on and take that as a life lesson.

2 pointson the opposite side of the coin, ive personally seen how quickly parkinson's can go south so unlike most, ive been picking him

2 pointsSadly I don't think he'll make another decade but I don't think he'll go in the next couple of years. Unless he gets diagnosed with something that would make his death imminent personally I'd never pick him.

2 pointsI don't really like the Ghost song. Saying this in small font as I've been scared into submission. Mott is probably the least predictable winner of the three, which sells it to me more tbh. Bowie, as we all know, is class. Baker Street is normally heard being introduced by Jeremy Vine.

1 pointBack to Glastonbury, and Chris Martin just serenaded Michael Eavis, who appeared on the big screen, seemingly live and watching but made absolutely no reaction, no smile, no wave, nothing, just sat stony faced. Maybe he just doesn't like Coldplay? Now he's got Michael J. Fox out on stage, brought out in a wheelchair. Is he doing some spotting for us?

1 pointWhat's happening now is highly unlikely. The list is not bad, has a ridicolous amount of decrepit nonagenarians that one of them should randomly die each month. Carter, Chomsky or Woodward have demonstrated their immortality. But among the others Murray, Greenspan, Kennedy, Laine, Gall, Brooks, Skinner (Immortal material), Baxter, Routledge, Hackman, Blix, Newhart (how still alive?), Farrakhan, Tebbit, Nelson, Flack, Marcos, Rollins could die at any moment. The result until now is just fucking nonsensical and does not depend on list quality.

1 pointUpdated for the deaths of Tin Oo and others. Not many left. Is Ion Coman still alive? Last interview seems to have been in 2010 when he was "frail with arthritis".

1 pointI think Jimmy Carter will beat the record of Herbert Hoover on September 9, 2012 to have had the longest post-presidency ever. He will be three weeks shy of his 88th birthday by that point. Herbert Hoover had a post-presidency of 31 years and 7 months, Carter already has 26 years and 4 months as an ex-president, it would be more difficult to beat Gerald Ford's longevity record but the post-presidency record is more in his grasp, just over five years to go and he is in quite good health for his age.
