Deathray

Today? http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/live-newcastle-set-sack-steve-7521891 Excuse me for being cynical but I've been reading variations of that story with the manager replaced since 5.30pm on Saturday night

Or he didn't have internet at home and got fired from the job he was using to post on here? Even if he got a job he could drop by at night. He's in the clink or jumped off his mother's roof, they seem the most likely possibilities. If the latter it's a shame he didn't let us know before New Year as he'd qualify for certain deadpools.

Fucking hell. Did they lose 40-0 in a match or something? Nah, but an eight goal drubbing is about par for their course. I'm still minded that Deathlisters should stay the course with the Fort, mind. This isn't a normal Rothes season. Is there a relegation/promotion system in the Highland League. If so would Rothes/Fort be in contention to go down? No, officials have scoured the planet but can't find a league sufficiently dire to accomodate the bottom teams in that division. Seriously, I think myself and PB are the only posters hereabouts to have parted with cash to watch The Fort. Striker with a beer gut, pub football standards at best the one time I went. Ironically it was a home game with Rothes I watched, Fort lost 0-4. If they do find one they might want the Villa to play in there as well. You can throw Newcastle and Bolton in with that league too.

The thing is we know it will happen within the next decade, or 12 years at the most if she lives as long as her Mum. So it is something that will occur in the short to medium term future, so perhaps her inner circle are simply gearing up and thinking about it more, as are other organisations, such as that arts council with their action plan guidelines we were discussing above. Maybe there is something more to it all, though, like you suspect but I thought she looked better in Decwember's Christmas message than she had last year. Look here matey, Ma'am is not going anywhere and your not getting your a republic for a few ears son okay. The queen's looking good. She's not going anywhere, Phil might going the next 2-3 years, she's got a decade.

I must be honest I miss Zorders, he might have been a bit deranged but he was canny and the fights he started were epic level trolling. I'll assume he's busy on other site now rather than that anything else has happened.

Complains to the press watchdog about the sun airing her views on Brexit. Maybe a "Fuck it, I'm dying, might as well stick one up Murdoch." Can't see why she'd risk upsetting Murdoch if she wasn't on the way, given how easily he could tear down the monarchy.

So I would be leading with 170 if but for your absurdity -54 Andrew Smith scoring, and so beautifully posting the 'rules' on Jan 15 a day AFTER you gave me -54 upon his death. http://www.deathlist.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=2315&p=249020 and pinned it here under the DP Rules pinned thread on Jan 16, conveniently. SC Quit Moaning

The actual fifth beatle has died.

I think the issue may lie in that you didn't specify you were entering it via the forum, so tmib would have presumed you would email it a later date?

I would suggest that might be too high it would be a lot to keep uptodate I would guess 100-200. Bob Chaundry, former BBC obit chief writer, said "several hundred". There was a bbc documentary about this a number of years ago. I can't remember who presented it, but it wasn't a top name journalist, and the BBC had their obituary on file too, which leads me to believe we could be talking a four figure number. You wouldn't at least know the name of the documentary?

Congrats on getting it out so quickly. Also, I'm 23rd, has to be an all-time highest placing for Kervorkian Clinic. I'll enjoy it while it lasts. Also: It's good to see shameless start falling down the leaderboard, even if that's slighty tainted by the leader having a similarly low bar pick amongst their team.

that's creepy No it's not. It's a very very very old joke.

A boy and is mum are having the birds and the bees chat. "A boy has a penis and a girl has a vagina - when they're locked together for extended periods of time a child is formed inside mummy, which mummy then gives birth to about nine months later." "Ok, I think I understand." A few days later the boy sleeps in mum and dads room because he's frightened after daddy's separated from mum and not their to protect him. The next morning when he wakes up he asks his mum: "Didn't you say a few days ago girls didn't have penises?" "Yes that's right." The mum replies in bemusement, "So mummy, why did I find yours under your pillow last night?"

Or one of those so bad they're good Channel 5 countdowns.

Right, sweepstake on Steve McClaren's unceremonious goodbye at Newcastle, we do it on deaths we might as well do it on the death of a career. 21/03/2016 is my thoughts - day after the Derby, which we'll inevitably lose.

The fact Steve McClaren still has a job is a damning indictment of the Newcastle United board.

Not just entertainment... "And that's a huge swing to the Nancy Reagan believers in the 2016 DDP. What does it mean?" "She's dead, Jim..." I actually had a rather bizarre dream a few weeks ago of David Dimbleby presenting the Drop 40 on New Years Eve as though it were an election. Amusing and disturbing.

Points for Reagan, por favour?

Aye, but a lot are only known as time passes.Guaranteed you'll find out about a few extra cousins in the next decade or so. What's the stat for grandparents? Even money that one isn't the one you call 'gran'/'gramps' I think. I assume you mean of Clive Dunn and Gretchlen Franklin, unless I've got some seriously bizarre family secrets... Nah, was meaning you , no slur intended.There really was a study done re DNA tests on grandparents and it was around evens one out the four isn't who you think they are (that gives 2 generations to have played away, a chance). Think I was 15-16 when an uncle became a cousin , funerals are good for that. Plus the real uncle that was getting planted that day.....a copper fae Inverness turned up and took a cord , that one was down to the milkmaid apparently. One funeral, two extra cousins. So your parent's brother was actually a parent's siblings son? Weird. Sorry for the cynicism but you do have a source for this - the stat? I'm 99% certain it wouldn't apply in my case, but the stats interesting. Regarding the bit in italics - can you translate it to English? 'Took a cord' ? It's when they lower the coffin down, relatives usually get the gig of lowering it with ropes. Cunt nobody had heard of before turned up at funeral and was given one. Farming uncle had got the milkmaid up the duff 50 years ago, drop of cash and a 'fuck off'. Think it was prevalent type of thing back then for the God botherers. Stat was from a radio prog a couple of years back, I've never looked for it but I would imagine it to be fair enough. It came about from the surge in family tree research and the sheer volume of folk getting a shock A lot of that could've been down to shitty family research or confusion. I've got relatives a few generation back who are all clustered around a similar area to a different family with the same surname, if you don't have full access to the records (which you have to pay for) you can often make assumptions that XXX of unrelated family is XX of your family. Most people can't afford to order the birth certificates so jump to these conclusions.

What kind of sick fucks would do that?

There was also father and son Kim Il-Sung and Kim Jong-il. Also mother and son Rose Kennedy and Ted Kennedy. There's also been father-in-law and son-in-law Lord Longford and Harold Pinter and cousins Gretchen Franklin and Clive Dunn. To be fair they are of the generation where you could easily have 40 or 50 cousins. So it's less impressive.
