Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 1, 2021 Every year it’s the same thing. The person must have DIED IN 2021 to be listed here. That means you must actually read the obit. This isn’t a thread called ‘obits published in 2021’, it’s dead of 2021. I don’t see how it’s confusing but then the good lord sends us CoffinLodger. And his cousin, drol. The world doesn’t revolve around your goddamn Brit arse; rather it revolves around the cold decaying arse of the person who died. And wherever said arse is located rules the day. I promise to reboot this post every year Dec 31 as long as I grace this earth. Yesssss, I shall change the year in the text, first. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 1, 2021 As a follow up (and derivative) to the post above, all obits for people dying in 2020 are not to be posted herein, but rather in the Dead of 2020 thread, even if published 100 days from now. It happens. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well to be fair, an American that’s as ignorant as Creep probably thinks there’s only three other countries: Mexico, Britain and The Moon. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
