Dying Probably

Even I got an invite - bloody twats...

Alright, sod it, I've searched for what thread I want for long enough, and some kind soul will inevitably point me: What happens if, now, 11 months down the line, it's announced one of the list popped their clogs in December 2021? I get it's heavily unlikely, but would the DL have subs for this or would some hasty googling of "old people that won't die" occur?

December 17th

At least we don't end on the dreaded 12? And to everyone except maybe Perfect Passing.... we see you, cheaters!

Is that the first double-hit-in-a-day since our good pals Shultz and Spinks?

Dead.

It has to be "Ding-Dong Ditch" doesn't it?

MacGowan because of the 50th curse

MacGowan for the "Eh, it's the cursed 50" factor.

Does the lettuce qualify? Or will The Boss™ feel a bit of jealousy?

Has been on my shadow list this year. A good option for "random old person" when the Committee needs one

December 25th. My guess on the other thread is MacGowan, and I guess he did a Christmas song once? Always has to be a Christmas-song person who goes then.

I do apologize, but by my count I'm on 5? Persoff, Newton-John, Hunt, (Windsor? Mountbatten-Windsor? Lizzie?), Lansbury?

Believe this is a QO by my memory

Hu is this thread about?

With only 2 months left, I think I'm just going to spam MacGowan every time one of these shows up. He's in spot 50, a doomed spot since Brucie in 2016.

Might as well. October 31st, a spooky demise.

I was having a good day, too. R.I.P.

112 years & 233 days, and 8 May 2026

Pessimistic option of "4, gap of half a bleeding century, 4", so no more for me

Well known for portraying Nyota Uhura in Star Trek, as well as being asked by MLK himself to stay on the show when she considered quitting. She was also Dorinda in Truck Turner. Suffered a stroke in 2015 and has dementia. Possibly a good pick for 2022, considering she's 88. Nichelle Nichols - Wikipedia

Probably safe to make this by December 28th, as the list of names will likely be coming to a close. As to quote @Paul Bearer, "put your possibilities up so we can study, discuss and ignore your picks."

A hit?
