dead Prince Philip Duke Of Edinburgh
Dr. Zorders replied to BirdieNumNums's topic in DeathList Forum
Are they nearly chucking spears at him? -
You could add John Noakes (Blue Peter) to that list. I didn't realize until just now that he turned 80 last May. You mean we could "Go With Noakes". Well, he did look...tired on Pointless last year. You can't judge a person's health or will to live based on their appearance/demeanour after they've spent an hour in a make-up room with Richard Osman.

For those of you who like me couldn't care less about American football you might not have heard about this yet: The sport is currently trying its best to make cricket controversies look non-silly with a "balls not inflated enough" scandal.

Will The Deathlist Have A Hit In January?
Dr. Zorders replied to Vaagheid's topic in DeathList Forum
I got 11 points for Demis Roussos so who cares. -
Yes I'm fully aware of the depths of dorkitude. The very first call I got when I started working for an internet provider many years ago was someone asking if there were many fan sites set up for the tv show "Saved By The Bell". And I think you'll find it was a statement that was in truth, I never watched wrestling once I hit puberty. Simple reason was, I had just lost interest in it. And since I hit puberty over 30 years ago, anyone that's appeared on the scene since the days of Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks, I neither knew nor cared who they were. I only know who Hulk Hogan was because his occasional antics would get reported on the news or he'd crop up in the occasional movie. Well you came across like you were trying to have a go at me because you wrongly thought I'm trying to make fun of Ian McLagan I wasn't. I was just giving an example of a dead person.... there's nothing worse than trying to tell a person they need to chillax and then they get more angry. And you seem kinda sensitive for an old rocker..... How about getting over it..... cause having to deal with these "misunderstandings" really deflate the sense of fun faster than a New England Patriots football!

Oh ok... apparently we "can't just"....... as though wrestling is somehow the only "silly" thing that gets discussed here or elsewhere on the web. If you really think I'm an idiot just for having pro-wrestling knowledge you have absolutely no idea the depths of dorkitude out there. I guess we'll just have to change it to "can't I just walk away cos if I be as needlessly spiteful to you as you are to me you won't be able to handle that and it'll just fill you with even more needless outrage". Which I can!

I've suggested her a few times, but since she's still alive I guess the committee have been wise to leave her off the list. Putting her on for next year might be a good option. come the fuck off it... We're really Foray-ing into obscuro territory with voice actresses aren't we? What is it with Disney fans around here. Just my opinion anyway Not entirely obscure, she was the voice of Rocky the Squirrel from Rocky & Bulwinkle, and also Jokey Smurf. I'm far from being a "Disney Fan" as you put it. They're just a notable name and sure to get an obit. While we're on the subject of voice actors, William Woodson might be worth going on the list. He narrated the mini-series The Winds of War. No way man we can't put him on, that hit would crash the server! So basically you're implying that if you've never heard of them, they don't count as a viable suggestion. Not everyone on the list has to be a house-hold name. They just need to be known in their field to qualify for an obit. For the main Deathlist I think there needs to be a fair degre of noteworthyness. People are free to play obit Russian roulette with their DDP picks but I would expect someone on the main list to be UK obit worthy without a doubt. Those that I have never heard off are not automatically bad picks but I then research them and then decide. When Sam Simon was first discussed on this forum I thought he was someone really obscure but I have been won round. Still not sure about Jake Roberts though. LOL, fucks sake man. Yes people do know who he is/was. If it's a bad pick it's because he's actually fairly okay. He's definitely in much better shape now than he was shortly after Stone Cold Steve Austin beat his ass down in the final of the 1996 King of the Ring! Helpful pic included to demonstrate: (WTF... Austin actually looks more like Goldberg there for some reason. He had a cut in his mouth so he looks a bit retarded or something) Wrestling: - This is an area that is completely off my radar. I do not watch it and have no interest in it. However unlike other topics which I have no interest, soaps, sport, ballet etc, it does not receive coverage in the mainstream UK press therefore I cannot see picks like Jake Roberts in the same way as someone like JvdW. If he dies during the year fine good call by the committee but I would prefer to see that place taken by someone else.... Peter Sutcliffe maybe? lololollooolol Man. Stop that, it tickles! I dont know how the hell you know who Van Der West Who-zen is. Do you watch "Invictus" on DVD all day? Jake the Snake Roberts was/is one of the most colourful and memorable characters in pro wrestling. I think more people know who he is. You obviously just think your blind spot is shared by more people than it actually is.... oh well whatever, doesnt matter. Oh and yeah here's a tip if you want an idea of who someone is maybe Google/Google Image search them instead of waiting for Snoozenight to run a report on them! Perhaps you do the same, instead of making shit statements when someone puts forth a suggestion. Can we just put this one down to "people of different generations having different opinions" again, and all shut up? You suggest someone who's only remembered for a voice-over (and not anything as famous as Scooby Doo!) then you're gonna get a few (mostly light hearted) jibes? Why is that so hard to take. Unless we want to ban anyone who jibes? That'll be fun! Chillax the fuck out before you end up like that fucking keyboard player who liked his guinness (and obviously no other fluids).

If only they were as "pro-false-and-asinine-pedantry" .......as they are "anti-anti-semitic"........

Well I do like old-style footy. i.e. pre-squillionaire days I just felt, y'know, since the world's going all 1930s at the moment I'd stroll into the cultural ghetto that is this thread and give some of its inhabitants a deserved slap-around just for a bit of fun. (p.s. I'm very anti-anti-semitism, just sayin that as a convenient metaphor...)

What a fucktard. Why doesn't he do us a favour and release a statement saying "UYYYYYYYUUUUURRRRHHAHGHGAASGHGGAKLALAGLN" (death gargle).
-
Aren't you even gonna post the cause of death? In his case it was cancer. Which in a 48-year-old man is probably a more notable thing than his extreme World Cup footnote status. Maybe I can try this one from another angle too - perhaps it makes you look slightly racist to report an African chappie has died aged 48 without listing the cause of death. As though, y'know, we're not supposed to be surprised or something?

I've got MPFCitis again. That's the acute feeling of admiration for the creativity and "cleverness", but serious nagging discomfort at the actual joke at the same time. You sound like all my therapists! And your history teacher sounds like he was about as "funny" as most of mine were.... To be fair to "Dave" as we came to call him later on, he was genuinely a character. After me and my equally lazy mate both scraped E grade passes in his A' level he came over to us in the local rugby club, insisted on buying us both a pint and called a a pair of "lucky bastards." I'd say he was an excellent judge of character. I'd buy most of my A-level teachers a pint. I mean it's just rude to splash something on someone's face that you haven't paid for. On the previous subject though.... in fairness it's always me bringing up Sutcliffe innit?

I think I'll probably have to take responsibility for every man and his dog now going around with a "shadow list". People always be copyin me. What am I gonna do. Although I got the idea from Windsor originally, he was the one who I first saw with one so... y'know, if you don't like it, maybe tell him to go fuck himself.

Political Discussions And Ranting Thread
Dr. Zorders replied to Deathray's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
That's so edgy..... in 1975! Did you ever think anniversaries like this might be the first time some people have heard of the fucker. Given the average outlook/intelligence of the Mirror/Sun reader these days, I'm sure this list of 10 things you didn't know about Churchill could just as easily be Who he was When he lived Why anyone even remembers him etc. Although it all pales in comparison to this piece of demented chav hilarity (which also proves how badly Mirror wants to be a left-wing equivalent of MailOnline.) Don't youngsters get taught arithmetic any more? Don't oldsters put their reading glasses on any more? -
You've only been here a couple weeks and you want them to break your hyphen already? It makes you easier to differentiate from Spade_Cooley. You are S-C, he is S_C. One stands for Sir-Creep, the other.......

Besides what COF said, some of them also have memorable appearances in movies that are almost as cheesy as pro-wrestling, like Andre the Giant in "Princess Bride", Roddy Piper in "They Live" and many many more. So mods please ignore him. When I first came here you didn't see me demanding people rename this and that. Fucks sake.
