Deathray

Did someone forget to put a few extra pennies in the meter on account of the beeb drive by-ers last week. It always seems to be towards the end of the month we get bandwidth limit exceeded messages, is the site on a monthly plan?

Did you really need to post these separately. One would have done. I saw a load of responses to this thread in my notifications and thought some-one notable might have gone.

Biblio do you think you might have a list problem, should we book you into list rehab?

Not again.(if this is more rule changes) Your constant tinkering with the once great game is making it a pain. The DDP worked fine for nearly two decades before you massacred it in December, one thinks you're becoming too complacent in your powerful position atop the competition and have some divine right to ride roughshot over it's history. You're a curator, not the flaming kingmaker.

So, would you come roaring back if Big Sam's escape plans dropped you? Depends on whether Rafa stays and which players we keep. Rafa will go where the money takes him. He wants to stay here: http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/rafa-benitez-im-falling-love-11228456 Yeah right. He really wants to add Rotherham away to his CV. He manages one of his local youth when he's unemployed. He cares more about managing than where/who he's managing. Also managing one of the few, if not the only, team to gain automatic promotion from the Championship to Premier League a second time would read for a pretty decent CV.

And you chose know to complain about something the forums been doing for years? It's only an extension of predicting the year someone dies. Its not a complaint, if it was id be hurling a fuck into every sentence. Just an observation, and its been done before but isn't something that has been 'done for years' Twas just a thought. Fair dues, it's probably a bit tasteless but so is everything we do here. It's not like were putting money on it. 7 years since the Jane Goody one. So I'd say it has been done for years. It's definitely been a regular occurrence since I joined - in December 2013.

She can still ride a horse at 90 and he can he still drive at 94. Don't think he'll be troubling us for a while: Looks in his early 80s at the most.

Whilst I like the analogy I think it's slightly more akin to your younger brother, whose got a lot of money, telling you that you need to keep on a good term with the rest of the family if you want help from him in the near term.

No, I'm pretty sure she died of natural causes. THAT is THE post of the day !! Shit and I thought my cream pie one had it!

No, I will admit that I like it done so that a good vet might be able to get it back on its feet A 'knock the horns off and put it on the plate' type of gal eh? A cream pie perhaps? < consults Urban Dictionary and then wishes hadn't > Did the context not give away the nature? On a totally unrelated note, the whole premise of deathlisting is "pointlessly tasteless" according to the stazi mods at DigitalSpy. http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2147965

None of them in your 'feelings someone will die?' I think Jimmy Carter might go within a month or two. Michael Gorbachev around September. Prince Philip, January next year.

Yes, fairly certain at least 1 of those 4 will go, however: Do old, former politicians top the legends of the music world? Obama would top Bowie/Prince, but Bush? Carter? IDK. I would say yes, the impact Bush and Carter had on the world is far beyond the impact Bowie ever had. Yes, Bowie had cultural influence but Bush and Cater had social, political, economic, cultural and military influence on the world. Their footprints are far far greater.

Anyone reckon another UK PM'll ever die in office again?

I hold firm that statistically over a 8 month period a more significant death must follow than Prince or Bowie, who top the stakes so far. Similarly to how Thatcher was bested by Mandela back in 2013. We haven't really seen a global powerhouse type figure go and there's plenty lying in wait with George H.W Bush, Jimmy Carter, Michael Gorbachev, Robert Mugabe etc all old and in varying states of health.

At the bottom we now need 2 wins and a draw and some luck or 3 wins. Even 3 wins might not be enough. Fucking snide Mackems.

Or just can't remember?

This phrase is becoming a bit redundant in 2016. Aren't you one of those who spent the first half of the year telling me how no-one significant had died whenever I posted this, despite obvious contradictory evidence?

I've got a feeling a significant celebrity death will happen in the next week.

There was nothing strange about it, sadly Paul Hunter, who was a very young man and prolific snooker player died of cancer at the age of 27. It was a tragic end for such a young man and many of us on here respected that and many of us mourned him. In those days the DL was on the Google search engine. I found my way here in 2004 by googling Fay Wray. Unfortunately people were googling 'Paul Hunter death' and we were one of the top hits on Google. It escalated from there, there was a thread about him and his death and it got to the stage people were seeing the thread and tracing the DeathList to the Grim Reaper and finding out his real name, occupation, phone number and address, It got pretty bad for a while. After that the DL changed it's settings on Google to not be searched by the famous names we discuss, I believe some have slipped through the net. We are not a site that wishes death on anyone at all, that is not our raisons d'être we are a site that respects death and primarily is a social area. Guessing who might die next year? well plenty of people do, they talk about it in workplaces all over the word, we use this website to do so. Also the first post in the thread was along the lines of "that many tumours he's snookered", the spelling of his name had to be changed to let things calm down. The same was done for a Ms c a r before I joined. It's a cracking good read. It starts about here and gets much better over the following pages. We need to bring back the Deathlist Ranting Index
