Spade_Cooley 9,538 Posted January 29, 2023 When deadpooling is so pre-occupied with the likes of Rolf Harris, Bill Cosby and Vladimir Putin, men who've all provided so much entertainment over the years, it's nice to have a candidate whose brand of pure evil was never accompanied by anything worth watching on TV. 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Immortal 636 Posted January 29, 2023 Somehow I had a gut feeling something big was up with her (I felt that she was getting frail very fast within the last 6 months) and put her on my Death By Numbers team this year. Turns out I'm the only one who picked her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,333 Posted January 31, 2023 She as I recall was incredibly paranoid over Covid and spent a long time away from her family (more than most for about 2 years +) just goes to show that you can't get time back. I don't mean that in a sarcastic way but a sad way.What a shame to deprive yourself so long when we don't know what is round the corner.I have known of elderly people who were like Esther petrified of contagion and I know around 7 people in my life that died afraid of Covid but not of Covid. Disclaimer:I am not an anti vaxxer and am vaccinated against Covid although I am due the last winter booster still.(I have had 4 doses) and regularly take a flu jab and have had all the other vaccines going you can get. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both of my remaining grandparents died - six months apart - just as we were pulling away from COVID (not from COVID). What you say makes 100% sense as I do sometimes wonder if it was worth pretty much abandoning them for most of the last year/18 months of their lives. The only positive is they both died peacefully and not gasping for their last breaths. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
