    Do You Actually Research?

    Not gonna lie, really enjoying not having to put the research time in this year. Haven't created a single bookmark folder.

    Advent Avalanche 2017

    Form guide #8 - Mitzi Shore The "godmother of American comedy" and the actual mother of Pauly Shore, who sadly never took up a career in the field. The owner of the Comedy Store and what eventually became Comedy Central, she went from pissing herself laughing at the cream of Los Angeles' stand-up talent to pissing herself because she is suffering from late stage dementia. Will she get to catch up once more with Richard Pryor, Robin Williams and Sam Kinison in December, and will she short them on their paychecks this time as well?

    The 100 Club

    Please welcome to the list of living centenarians Mrs Marsha Hunt, Hollywood starlet who was stabbed in the back by John Huston and blacklisted. Still well enough to give relatively in-depth interviews, and still living at the same two-storey apartment she moved into back in 1946.

    UNKLE released a new album this year, don't think he's going anywhere.

    DDP 2018 Town Hall

    He's not on the DDP this year, I was more "looking forward".

    DDP 2018 Town Hall

    Can anyone find any evidence of Isis, Isil or Abu Sayyaff confirming that Isnilon Hapilon is dead? Because if not, would he still not count as dead for current DDP purposes, even though opposing forces have taken DNA samples from his corpse?

    Who the fuck does Tarby play golf with these days now Wogan, Corbett and Brucie are burning in hell?

    Camelot (2012) is the only living horse to have won both the 2,000 Guineas and the Epsom Derby.

    By-Election Bingo 2017-22

    He helped give the world the vital New Yorkshire scene of the mid-00s and that's the thanks he gets?

    (C)Rappers

    Probably won't make a QO for the DDP but one for your second-tier requirement pools, legendary rap podcaster/journo/radio DJ Combat Jack has colon cancer and is already talking "alternative treatments":

    Biggest Misses By The Committee 2017

    Yeah, he was actually in the band when they were technically still "Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids", he left before the release of Antichrist Superstar which was the first time anyone actually heard them outside of their home state.

    Death Anniversary Thread

    Rodney "Yokozuna" Anoai died today in 2000, aged just 34. Allegedly he was finished off by a heart attack brought on from seeing a spider in the corner of his Liverpool hotel room.

    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    Liz Gilbert is making very, very few social media posts at the moment (only the "here's where to donate for the victims of Hurricanes/degenerate vegas gamblers" type). My assumption is that's because Rayya will be out of here before the advent calendars go up.

    Third baby for BJ at 68. It's a matter of trust....

    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    Ah I meant in terms of who's about to drop dead from their long-running health issues first. RLS is not in any troubles as far as I'm aware, and is still ornery as ever on his Twitter acct.

    Authors Last A Long Time, But....

    Jacqueline Wilson vs Philip Pullman has always been the cognoscenti's poll of choice.

    FIFA World Cup Players

    Marino Perani: only four caps for Italy, but one of them came in the infamous 1-0 defeat to North Korea in 1966. Dead at 77. He was part of the vaguely legendary Bologna team of the early 60s that won the Scudetto in 64.
