    And for those who can't read that due to being european and not on a vpn to avoid gdpr. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/01/obituaries/peter-frame-dead.html

    Donald J Trump

    Possibly just me, but I can't read that without imagining it voiced by the late John Spencer. :(. Though obviously in reference to somebody other than his own president.

    Summer Olympic Deaths/Dead Medallists

    Pistol shooting? Synchronized swimming?? Synchronized diving??? Rhythmic Gymnastics???? Dressage????? This one takes the biscuit, horse dancing? fuck me. 2,443 different swimming events? Canoeing and Kayaking, bring it on.
  4. With all this chatter about self love I don't think they are the only ones.

    Inverse Survivor Dead Pool I

    Interesting. Given the no immediate re-use rules I'm 'saving some for later'. Which obviously means a slightly riskier than 'the best ten picks' first month lineup. Presumably other (and undoubtedly more experienced) competitors have done something similar which has prevented an average of the 10 most likely to survive appearing here.

    Clive James

    Depends on my mood, but right now, Invite them to take a seat (or knoll) whilst I explain the ovine pro's and cons of brexit. They seem to get quite agitated at the mention of chlorinated chicken.

    Carry On Dying

    I've been avoiding that like the fuckin plague, but my lunatic posts have me close now. In my defence it's taken the better part of some 4 or 5 years. Even so, I'm a bit horrified.

    Carry On Dying

    Carry On Dying

    Spammer.
  10. Agree. Totally. Rest? some, but not entirely. If you have enough money you cheat, and they do. Paying accountants to put your Deliveroo or Yodel or such money in Antigua is self defeating, fees far exceed the cash of course. Thus PAYE on min wage or even average wage pays proportionately far more than those at the top, particularly those prepared to bend or even break the rules. Amazon, Starbucks and so on paying about 25p in the uk on earnings of millions means somebody else (who can't escape paying....) is picking up the tab. But hey, that's just my view.
  11. Aye, you inhaled didn't you?

    What Are You Listening To Right Now?

    And, just to show there's nowt so queer as peoples music taste...also, this. The "no future" refrain of which is perhaps even more apposite to millennials than to those around at the time.

    Mikhail Gorbachev

    It's Charon. That's actually quite tame. No, +1 at least. Yup. Or 1 above would be unnecessary.

    Spy corner

    Damn! I was going to like your previous post, then realized, I already had. Da fuq with this novichok stuff. There's an absolute heap of things I believe we are not being told.

    Death Anniversary Thread

    Seems like yesterday I was driving round that stupid North Circ Gyratory system with 'Self Control' blasting out the drivers window annoying everyone. Some things make one aware of how short your own time is, Laura Branigan although not a superstar just hits that spot for me. Still a better track than Gloria to me. Ah well.
