Complains about stuff should go to the ideas and possibilities thread, but now is complaining that this should go into another thread??!!

It’s a tradition that this thread is listed and it’s not something that’s listed for the first time. Do you really think they would want to go through over 60 pages in the ideas and possibilities thread with a certain amount of it being just clutter? That’s why why this thread exists...

Of course, now that I think about it, Lou Rawls is more obscure than Dury, yet he's still significant enough and well known enough to make the list. i think my general point still stands though, Gilbert and Lima aren't significant enough to make the list...

Clearly I didn't phrase it that well, of course he's well known enough to make the list...

Oh, and the committee needs to bring Jacques Chirac back so we don’t have another Helmut Kohl dilemma next year...

Unfortunately for Devin Lima and Greg Gilbert, they just don’t seem signicant enough to warrant a spot on their list. I know people will go but Errol Christie and Gord Downie made the list this year, but Christie was a well respected boxer in his prime time (even if he had a terrible professional career), and Downie was a national treasure in Canada. They both have an argument for their significance, whereas Gilbert and Lima seems to be singers in indie bands, and nothing else. Even the most obscure musical act who made the list before, Ian Dury, had a certain amount of influence in his music. Those two just don’t stand a chance of making the list imo.

Like in the first post, I think the final survivor of the original list, Ozzy Osbourne, should make a return starting next. How the hell he was able to last that long I do not know...

Seeing the thread that YoungWilz just posted, Stanley Baxter doesn’t seem to be a bad shout for the committee tbh.

Well, his career certainly went before both of theirs...

Now that same Twitter account is saying it’s untrue:

That was Stefansson I believe. Gilbert got diagnosed the exact same day that Donald Trump elected according to a guardian article iirc.

The issue would be TJS in that scenario, they both have her. With Michael likely on the way out, Greg Gilbert has to die in order for him to win...

Reportedly in his last hours of his life.

I was getting at the fact that the age range for both of them are the same, ie 60 - 69, so there wouldn’t be complaints that he may have gotten more points. Though that is a good point you made when talking about him. Well, we’ll have to wait and see what themaninblack decides to do in the next update or two (along with Les Mutrie...)

Well, he’s worth the same amount of points either way. It’s not like if you decide to go with this Paul Watson that he’ll be receiving more points because of it...

Does that warrant Betty White to stay on the list?

I don't believe I got life figured out at all (I probably never will), however, I'm suddenly feeling much worse than how I was feeling before, and I don't know why this sudden downturn happened even though I was already feeling terrible before...

My life feels so insecure right now, and I honestly don't know how to figure it out right now...

Please come back Cat O’Falk. We all miss you.

To be fair, those states almost always go against the trend in electing governors since, 1987 I believe?

I know that Trump’s cabinet members aren’t the brightest people out there, but this is beyond the usual republican answer to climate change...

The American dream died one year ago today aged 240...

I know. I said it multiple posts above you.

QO for DDP.

They should, but they won’t, because he’s really in his sad last days now...
