  1. Well there's a word I've been misspelling my entire life, platonic not plutonic apparently?
  2. Even under that link it only seems to show the British indexes.
  3. Are they fucking kidding. My mum hadn't heard of Reddit, Digg, Instagram or Tumble when I was growing up. Let the fucking delicate little flowers find their on way on the internet, they're probably a few estates away from a rapist/pedophile/violent individual, fraudster or robber when they walk down the street, should we lock kids indoors? Oh really you logged on to Sickipedia and found offensive content. That's the whole point. Ever since I was at school I've had jokes read off sickipedia to me in various places, none of us have ever felt the need to be protected from the jokes. Kids are seeking that stuff out. This is hardly a new issue at all. I'm 20 and I don't remember at time when Omegle and Chatroullete were anything but dicks and tits. Anybody who actually wants to communicate with friends for plutonic reasons uses Skype or Video Calls them and due to those sites reputations no-ones going to actually try and meet people through them (maybe in the text chat, but that's full of bored trolls). Omegle have tried clamping down on the issue in the past, but there's only so much they can do. As one of the kids interviewed in that article said, "At 13, being connected online with a stranger, for no better reason than they decided to log on at the same time, was a cheap thrill. Now, at 17, my friends and I know only too well what to expect from social media sites like Omegle or Chatroulette." - Eventually you just avoid those sites, you grow out of it or are a consenting party (if you're both 18 there's no issue, knowing for certain that's the case is the muddy part) - seeking more mature porn. Adults who use them to exploit kids are the issue, not the children themselves seeking a cheap thrill.
  4. Could they onion not have been up that ladies backside to stop her farting? Maybe she thought if it works for dead chickens and turkeys it'll work for me?

    Tax Evasion 2016 Guide

    Cash in hand on hundreds of millions is a bit more difficult to arrange than a few quid for going trawling I'd imagine.

    Derby Dead Pool 2016

    I don't quite understand why there response to their music obituary writer dying is to close the entire obit section? I think this is a case of correlation not cause in that the obit section was getting nerfed anyway and he died around the same time. You've not lost the obit because he died, beware of seeking cause where there is only correlation. It's worth noting the obit writers obit is from the 1st March, whereas the last obit on their section is the 26th March No, they closed the obituary section down because the fucking newspaper doesn't actually exist any more. The print newspaper doesn't exist anymore. The online version does. Online news still runs obits, you divvy. You're hardly missing out on the obit because someone no-one ever picked died, your missing out on the obit due to an online newspaper's editorial decision. Stop crying wolf, Michel Delpech wasn't obit worthy and that's why you missed out. Can't give enough 'likes'. That last sentence is the best thing EVER published on this site. SC What, a completely misapplied phrase? Oh well whatever, Deathray's a football fan so I suppose it's not a huge surprise. or as true fucktards say, IT IS WHAT IT IS! I must admit even I as the author of that supposedly best ever sentence published on this site was utterly baffled by SC's assertion of such.

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2017

    Bernie Eccleston looked rough when interviewed by BBC News this morning. He also seemed a bit abrasive and thick with the news reporter.
  10. Of the two young males of the street in the initial series - loveable rogue Dennis Tanner and intellectual boring man Ken Barlow, which of the actors Philip Lowrie (now 79) and William Roache (now 83) do we think will go first.

    Football

    Dare I say it? Newcastle appear to have pretty much booked a seat next to Villa next season. Just 7 years on from our last relegation.
  12. I have a feeling a major death will be announced tomorrow or Monday.

    Will this be another Anne Kirkbride "time off"? I doubt it, reportedly a medication issue.

    Room 101

    They seem to think this sentiment is some sort of joke. That does seem to have a bunch of replies from people saying they'd be it. That all your twitter accounts? Any missing episodes? The only 60s show I know has nothing missing is Blue Peter, as future Deathlist starlet Biddy Baxter was apparently very on the ball about the archives from the off. And scarier than Peter Cook! No they aren't. There's even more support for it on ITV's Facebook page. Hopefully this is just testing the water for an online archive (something the Coronation Street email manner cites as in the works every time I pester him about this subject). There may be a few missing episodes, but my understanding is that there isn't. Whilst there was wiping of episodes during the 1960s, they were retained for international distribution as film recordings and these have been shown in other countries. They nerferd the YouTube archive on Copyright ground that's stretched 1976-96 so you'd think they wanted to profit from it at some stage. What better way than to release it? What concerns me most about that Aprils Fools ad is that they resized some of the older footage. They better not do that if they do release it.

    Deathlist On The Net

    Good because most of them are cunts. Oh, I don't know, most of them seem to be taking an interest. There's only a couple being po-faced about it. The Corrie Fan vehemently defending us is me, the rest seem a bit luke-warm about it. (the site that is) There's a fair few naturals in though, that woman who got Denise Robertson deserves a gold medal.

    Yes you are. He's Irish - he'll have no idea what a 92 year old sounds like.

    Conspiracy Theories

    According to Spycatcher Mountbatten would have been PM if the 1967 secret-service coup against the Wilson government had gone ahead. Part of the reason it didn't go ahead was Mountbatten's own respect for democracy. A 2006 documentary by the BBC alleged a plot extremely similar took place in 1974-76. There definitely was a military coup plot, confirmed in 1996 against Wilson during one of his terms by the right, but the timing and those involved was never confirmed. I am paraphrasing a well-referenced section of Wikipedia's article on Lord Mountbatten

    Ronnie Corbett

    Announced Ronnie Corbett's death to me my mum, who's previously shown no interest in Deathlisting and to the best of my knowledge isn't aware of this site, to be greeted by "they're dropping like flies then, who's next Jimmy Tarbuck, Bruce Forsyth?"

    Philip Lowrie V William Roache

    Alan Rothwell left an awful lot sooner than Lowrie and then you open the can of worms as to whether Anne Cunningham would merit a place. I suppose a poll of surviving members of the cast in that first episode could be made: William Roache Alan Rothwell Philip Lowrie Patrick Shakesby (Susan, Ken's girlfriend) Anne Cunningham Or all the original cast: Doreen Keogh (5 February 1926) (Concepta Riley) Ernst Walder (17th November 1927) (Ivan Cheveski) Anthony Booth (9th October 1931) (Malcolm Wilkinson) William Roache (25th April 1932) (Ken Barlow) Philip Lowrie (20 June 1936) (Dennis Tanner) Alan Rothwell (9 February 1937) (David Barlow) Anne Cunningham (1st March, 1937) (Linda Cheveski) Patricia Shakesby (6 November 1942) (Susan Cunningham) The first three wheren`t in the pilot episode. I don't think you read my post, they were part of the original cast that Tony Warren devised and appear in the initial set of episodes. The first list is living actors in the first episode.
