    I keep forgetting that he was an actual guy, and not just a brand like Mr Clean or Uncle Ben.

     

    Ditto. same with Calvin Klein (who is 80) and Giorgio Armani who turns 89 this year.

    if a hit does come this year, a game I sometimes do is I check the list first, so I don’t know who has died, only that there has been a hit. Then I write up the 50 candidates in order from least likely to most likely, put on some suspenseful music and do a Google Search of all candidates from least to most likely until I find the one who died. Usually, I make it to the 10 most likely before the dead candidate is revealed.

     

    Jesus Christ. I hope you never answer honestly in a job interview when they ask what you do in your spare time.

  3. IMO it's stupid to be speculating who and who isn't going to be on the 2024 Deathlist at the end of fucking January.

     

    11 months left and anything can happen regarding nonagenarians. At this point in time there's people that will appear on the 2024 list that aren't even diagnosed or made their diagnosis public yet.

  4. American sports journalist Steve DiMeglio, who writes for USA Today mainly about golf, has stage 4 cancer. 

     

     

     

    Most likely not QO worthy but still worth a consideration for pools with lower obit requirements.

    PLEASE stop regurgitating every non-entity that appears on the Deaths in 2023 wiki page on here.

  8. Sorry to add to the list of booboos, but the John Scott on my Life Got Cold team is the wrong one. It was meant to be Scottish politician John Scott (wiki) and not the British composer.

     

    I did add a wiki link to his page in my submission so it was clear which John Scott it was. Maybe I should have put (politician) John Scott in my entry? If it's my fault that I didn't include that information, it's totally fine.

     

    Massive props to the sexy people that have dedicated the last month or so of their lives to make this pool happen. You all deserve the sloppiest of fellatio tonight! Or a 'lil strum.

  9. How is everyone feeling about this Wikipedia update? It's unbelievably ugly, I hate all this wasted white space.

     

    Is there any way of changing it back to the original skin?

     

    Edit: Logging in gives you an option of switching it back to the old one, phew.

    Nick Anderton's bone cancer is more aggressive than previously thought according to a club statement on 14th December.

    https://www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/2022/december/nick-anderton-update/

     

    It has also spread according to his GoFundMe.


  11. I have fragments of memory of John Paul II dying, I would've been 8 years old. Steve Irwin is probably the one that sticks out most.

     

    Although not a celebrity death, I was 6 when the murders of schoolgirls Holly and Jessica happened in Soham in 2002. It gave me delightful nightmares of being kidnapped/snatched away in public at the time. That would be my first memory of any public death story.

    In the 78 cup he wore shirt number 21 and is the 10th to die, in the 82 cup he wore shirt number 1 and is the 4th to die

     

    This information is truly not interesting or necessary for every footballer death posted on this site. Just saying.

    Thank you!  I fixed the errors and added Mark Souder which results in a big jump to T2nd for Banana.  However, I have not scored for Mike Davis (yet).  There are literally 50 people named Mike Davis on wiki and none of them are listed as columnists, which is my only clue based on a couple of entries.  There was a UCLA based author named Mike Davis that died, but are you guys digging that deep?  I hesitate to give credit with that much ambiguity.  It was pretty likely that somebody named Mike Davis was going to die this year!  Comments?

     

    I believe it was this Mike Davis.
