Not a specific place per se, but the Swedish word for "end" is "slut". So, "end station" (where a bus/train makes its final stop) is called "slutstation" here. Hilarious for tourists, but completely normal for us Swedes.

With her playing one of the leading roles in a movie that won 4 Academy Awards, I would think that she could get a DDP obit.

Ewa Fröling, who played Emelie in Fanny och Alexander, has had cancer since at least the Summer. She was born in 1952, meaning that she is 64 years old at the moment and worth 8 points on the DDP. http://www.aftonbladet.se/nojesbladet/a/de0gJ/ewa-froling-om-cancern-kommer-jag-att-overleva Your point being? ?? She is a celebrity whose cancer was revealed today. How is that any different from what every effing other person does around here?

Thank you. Someone sees his potential. I knew Lazy Town was a popular kids show but had no idea just how big it has become.Then again I don`t have kids in my family so I probably wouldn`t. There are characters made for everyone. Boy crush, girl crush, gay crush musical and annoying...I used to watch it as a kid. I had a crush on Pinky (and for some strange reason Sportacus also, must be for Dali mustache and muscles and I'm not even gay). Some people need a lol moment or a laugh, that's why I posted this. It doesn't kill to make fun of yourself here and there, but some people here seem to be in holiday spirit, in the spirit of Ebenezer Scrooge. Confidence level zero. Did you ever fantasize about having a threesome with Sportacus and Stephanie?

Nicely done, Fergie. Maybe add spaces between the years for better reading?

Would anyone like to go through all 57 pages and create a comprehensive and detailed health protocol for Zsa Zsa before her 100th birthday as a testament to one of the slowest effing cases of senescence that the field of biology has ever witnessed?

Dear esteemed committee, I would hereby like to nominate Baby Peggy for the 2017 DeathList for the following reasons: 1. 2017 is an important year in the sense that it will mark the 90th birthday of talking movies. When The Jazz King came out in 1927, that was the end of an entertainment medium that lay the foundation of every movie that you all have loved throughout the years. As Baby Peggy is one of the last surviving performers of the silent films, her inclusion would be a good way to highlight the anniversary. 2. Her status as one of the last surviving ones coincides with the fact that she was a major star back in the days. Her notability is undisputed in terms of being a DL-worthy selection. At her peak, she received over a million fan letters in just one year. That's over 3000 fan letters per day (!) So we are talking Chaplin, Pickford and Laurel & Hardy level here. In contrast, how many fan letters has someone like Liz Smith gotten? Not many, I reckon. 3. She is 98 years old so she would be a realistic hit by pure statistical probability. 4. She has struggled with health issues like pneumonia and, by own admission, won't be around for all too many years to come. So it is not only an age-based nomination. 5. She goes by the name of Diana Serra Cary. And, as we all know, Cary is the first name of the man who inspired the 30 years of DeathList (see previous post on Dyan Cannon). Sincerely, Predictor.

nvm, wrong thread

Julie Andrews?

So the award seems to have gone to three Chinese UN peace-keepers who died in South Sudan and Mali respectively. My Chinese is a bit rusty, though, and I can't exactly copy-paste texts on images into Google Translate. So disappointed it wasn't Kim Jong Un.....

Rant of the year:

Magnus Scheving (show creator): I know a lot of kids who love Robbie Rotten. I have gotten complaints from some parents that he is a bad influence. What should we do about it? Stefán Karl Stefánsson: Oooh, I know! I'll pretend to have pancreatic cancer IRL so that parents can say to their children "see, that's what happens when you are a bad, bad person". I'm an actor, so I can make it look credible. Method acting taken to the next level. Magnus Scheving: Brilliant!!!

It is 9 December, 01:30 AM in New York, where Kirk Douglas was born. So, he has turned 100 years old now. Happy birthday.

The Brazilian flag bearer in the 1932 Olympics Antoinette Davidson has died aged 109.

My answers in bold.

FFS Deathray. Now who should we PM our nominations to? First Zorders gets banned, and now you. My friends' list keeps getting smaller and smaller...

Didn't Dr. Zorders make a similar thread once? Don't remember its exact name, but I do recall it escalating into an amusing fight or something. In any case, no changes came of it.

This is an interesting idea, Charon. It sort of reminds me of when I wanted to re-design my signature for my second DDP season. Instead of the commonly used [/ s] tags that strike dead celebs, I was looking for an option that crosses the names like "X" instead of "-". I couldn't find an in-built code for that, so I made two pictures instead that I have used ever since. I think it blends in well with the forum background so I think your idea could also be implemented neatly. Alas, I have not had any reasons to update my sig often this year, but that's another story.

Q: Why did Dr. Zorders refuse to buy Apple's new app that contains guides for good death pool picks? A: Because it was called iSlam Form Guide

I'm thinking this might be a gag... Let's hope so, for joeyruss' own sake.

That may not be possible. Ah, I see. Thanks for clarifying that for me! Joey, I have read the rules carefully several times and I still don't understand what this game is about. Does each contestant select one single celebrity they think will die before Christmas? And the game ends when the first one of them dies? And what exactly does a "Death Slam Form Guide" mean in the context of the game? Is it mandatory to choose between the various names in said guide? The rules don't mention the guides? I will probably not enter either way (I usually prefer to limit my deathpooling to just DDP, and maybe 1-2 additional) but I am still curious to know so I can feel less stupid. Hi. 1) Yes, you only select one celebrity. In the event that the celebrity you pick get taken or dies before the start, you can select another one 2) It ends when the first celebrity dies, OR in the unlikely event that no one dies before Christmas Day 3) A Death Slam Form Guide is a guide that people can look at in case they are too lazy to research 4) No, you don't have to choose a celebrity from the Death Slam Form Guide 5) It's not a rule to put one down, but it could be helpful to people who does plan on playing Anymore questions? Thank you, Joey.

I don't know how well-known he is outside of Sweden, but the legendary sports commentator Arne Hegerfors (b. 1942) is dying. He's had a heart attack, a stroke and a tumour recently!!! He also has memory loss and poor eyesight. http://www.expressen.se/noje/frun-planerar-for-arne-hegerfors-begravning/
