Deathrace 1,176 Posted December 11, 2023 Is there a thread on the most shocking death of the year? If not, I'd probably say Matthew Perry despite his well-documented addiction issues. While there's been a lot of famous people die in 2023 most of them have been at an age where it wasn't unexpected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jd24fan 78 Posted December 11, 2023 Here are my picks: January: David Crosby February: Burt Bacharach March: Robert Blake April: Harry Belafonte or Jerry Springer May: Tina Turner or Gordon Lightfoot June: Pat Robertson July: Tony Bennett or Sinead O"Connor, maybe Paul Reubens August: Bob Barker September: Jimmy Buffett October: Matthew Perry November: Kissinger or Rosalynn Carter December: TBD, too early, but probably either Sandra Day O" Connor or Norman Lear. If Jimmy Carter passes, it's going to be him. It could be someone completely shocking too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,628 Posted December 11, 2023 I've run the numbers and I'm happy to announce that for the fifth year running, the most significant death of every month in 2023 was the 2018 passing of "smokin' big doinks in amish" meme star Young King Dave. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
