No idea why jimbean bumped this 20 year vacant thread, but here's my "fantasy deathlist" as the now probably deceased OP puts it: 1. Tila Tequila 2. Macy Gray 3. Sally Field 4. Bernie Sanders

I'm so glad that you're willing to fight on behalf of Jeanne Calment... I'm getting pissed after all these conspiracy theories about Jeanne Calment being Jimmy Carter.

Bob Newhart Frank Field Shannen Doherty Jonnie Irwin Mario Zagallo Zhang Lixiong William Russell Willie Mays 8/50

I don't know, I heard his DL buddies are encouraging him to drop out of the site... just saying...

Noam Chomsky. I mean we have Jimmy carter and Noam chomsky who are obviously dying together, but since Jimmy carter is stuck in a perpetual state of decomposition without death, I choose Noam chomsky.

The grim reaper took a 6 month long nap and now he had to cram everything into the 2nd half of the year. I think August—December will be packed with celebrity deaths, but overall the list will only be at 5/50 by the end of year. 2025 will be very similar to 2023, where most people don't expect that much out of the DL, and yet it manages to almost match the 2020 record. For me there's a possibility that 2026 will break the high score.

rocky creed guy, mc5 guy, mother springsteen, Johnnie Irwin, and that other actor... all dead within two days. It can't/how can it get any worse than this?

The most recent photo of Wigberto Tañada posted on his Facebook was from 2022. He mysteriously became inactive at the end of September 2022. In the photo he looks frail and possibly cancer ridden.

Star Trek actor Gary Graham has died at 73

Guy Scott There's a recent picture of him taken on November 5, 2023 and uploaded to his Facebook account. Wrinkly and crinkly and frail, but not as advanced as I expected, as he can still hold a drink (albeit very strugglingly). One of the things I want to point out is that with some cases in Parkinson's, some days you can stand, and others you can't. My gut told me he would be a 2025 hit.

Choe Thae-bok is dead at 93

I understand that there's a lot of conflict in this thread, so here's my hot take. What if the real Jimmy Carter was the friends we made along the way?
