msc

Warning, in such a scenario, my first task would be making charon a mod for "shits and giggles". Second less-Trumpish task would be making Cat a mod because he seems to know what he's actually doing when things go wrong and would make the rest of the admin/mod team look great. *nods*

Well, hopefully he's remembered to take those pills again. Well, hopefully he's not taking those pills if he was just bullshitting about them. Christ, it's like a Choose your own Adventure novel. Either route above leads to getting eaten by a dragon on Page 51 iirc.

Go on, share it. You know you want to.

He's in the most down to earth, serious and best Christmas Carol, of course.

Ta. 7 years ago. Christ that post is so old Al-Megrahi was still alive.

tbh at the risk of sounding like Sean, you look at the list of survivors up the top, and if half of them failed to see 2019 would you be surprised? Only by them all being on the actual Deathlist, rather than the specific names.

Nah, yer usual tetchy sod! Techy thread, not tetchy thread. I thought someone had created a tetchy thread when it got bumped back up to the top a few days ago!

Say say two thousand one eight party over, oops, out of time So tonight the Reaper's gonna party like it's twenty-sixteen. Doesn't scan as good.

Always thought that msc was a "wrongun", myself.

So if Bowen is CS Lewis to Hawking's Kennedy here, who's going to be Aldous Huxley?

One of my first posts on this forum was predicting Bowen wouldn't see 80. Sod had to prove me wrong by 6 months...

Same, but now you've mentioned that, I can do this: Typo, Cat. *Jose Jose.

Brackers

Somehow I've managed to avoid it, despite my reaction to shiny buttons you're not meant to press being like this:

He'll be King but I'm thinking a William IV type reign, where he's old and frail and everyone knows Victoria/William is taking the throne soon. It'll be weird.

One of my favourite actors (he was snubbed for an Oscar for Sleuth the year that hack Brando got it for mumbling through 30 minutes of The Godfather imo) fwiw. Will be a sad day when folk earn points off him. And like Duvall, Eastwood and Hackman, obviously Deathlisty names. Dunno about his current health though.

Aye, so I hear. Although not everyone can be Garibaldi, you need Mazzini's too. Mrs msc woke me up around 6am to tell me and then I couldn't remember if he was on this years list or not.

Think Queen will outlive one of her kids. It's a royal tradition.

Is that the same Prince Bandar who was famously the US Ambassador? Or another? tbf it is a very big family. Big names too!

You ban a guy from this forum and he releases his memoirs.

7 on the Gleason Scale. Just for those of you who cant bear to look over a Monbiot article for that.

*nods*

They would, but they keep her hanging on.

Unlike the Olympic, football's a devolved matter. USA, boycott, Russia? (Just killing your gag for you there... )

So if the English do decide to boycott the world cup (spoiler - they wont), we could just replace them with Scotland. We'd go out ASAP when we used to qualify for things (before Rad chap was born), so no one would really notice the difference these days...
