Guest jeffonthego Posted April 9, 2004 I'm surprised Osama bin Laden wasn't on this year's deathlist. While he's proven pretty resilient since getting more than he bargained for post-911, I'd say with a US election in November, there's a good chance the Americans will manage to blow up whatever mountain hole Osama is squirreled away in. And in the end, that's probably good news for him, what with all those virgins waiting for him in the afterlife . . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stayin Alive 26 Posted April 9, 2004 Hi there Jeff Not unless cyberdyme can get their latest killer cyborg-soliders back in time. "Have you seen this boy?" I have a contact at Skynet who reckons that they are a good few years away from anything like this and I guess the committee probably heard similar chatter on the wires. As for the Americans blowing up the right hole, I think that the odds are they will be blowing up the wrong hole, most probably in the wrong country. Could be handy if they hit another axis of evil; it could generate some positive PR too. So for me at least, it's not quite Hasta la vista and more like "I'll be back" on OBL. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Yeti 14 Posted April 9, 2004 Well, if the Americans blow up enough holes, they might - eventually - get the right one. They just gotta keep plugging away at as many holes as they can find - and they do. Seemingly. And without too much thought as to whether it might be the right hole or not. Or who else is in it. As the saying goes .. if you're in a hole, stop digging. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teddy 21 Posted April 10, 2004 And of course, the death has to be verifiable. Given the number of times we heard that Saddam was probably dead through 'surgical' strikes, I don't think we can simply accept it when a US general stands up and says 'He was in that hole, but we blew it up so much we'll never be able to retrieve the body'!! It didn't work when they tried to explain where the weapons of mass destruction were - I don't think it will work with Osama. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Holy Joe 0 Posted June 9, 2004 I was shocked to see that Bin Lard-ass did not appear on the Death list. Here at work where we run our own Death Pool, the cave dwelling irritant ranks only behind Pope John Paul and Marlon Brando. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teddy 21 Posted June 9, 2004 Hi Holy Joe, We have already had a little discussion re Bin Laden, albeit a while back.. Bin Laden thread However, I have it on good authority that he no longer lives in a cave. He now resides with Ma><ine Carr somewhere in Leeds, London or Whitby. His reasoning is that should any vigilantes come calling, they will aim for her, and allow him time to make his escape... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VileBody 11 Posted September 8, 2004 Bin Laden should not be on the list since the f****r is stone f****n dead. Has been since the Yanks totalled Tora Bora. A) the guy needed f*****g dialysis and I guess dragging one of those machines round the Afghan hills gets to be a bit of a drag; also - why no more happy-snap home video messages to the f******s and losers who think he's anything but a psycho? Maybe technical problems? "Hey Ahmed, what's the matter with the vid?" "Sorry, Oh Great Osama, the f*****g battery's flat" "Here's a tenner - nip down to Islamabad and get a new one...Oh and 20 B&H and a bottle of Bacardi while you're there" Incidentally, the day after 9/11, some bloke at the MOD Googled "Bin Laden" and got an article from the Belfast Telegraph about a "wheelie-bin laden with explosives....". Nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted September 8, 2004 I find it interesting that VileBody feels the need to spell f****r (presumably) as f****r, but the words f****n and fuckwits in full. I could be wrong though, perhaps the *s are automatically generated using Mr. Alive's built-in smut filter. I think I shall conduct a scientific test. The following expletives are spelt out in full: f*****g f****r f****n f*****t bollocks tits knob bugger Now lets see how we got on ... DWB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted September 8, 2004 Excellent test, I see that fugger and fugging are starred-out but others side-step the smut filters. I think you need an upgrade Mr. Alive! DWB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VSBfromH 74 Posted September 9, 2004 I think the German Olympic hockey team had a Kuntz playing for them. One piece of commentary went something like: "The Germans are in trouble here... Kuntz can't clear it!" which I thought was somewhat rude! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rude Kid 3 Posted September 13, 2004 Hey, they've changed the headline of that Sky Sports article. It did read "Fuchs Wants Kuntz Talks", but someone's toned it down. But still not as good as the Daily Mirror's effort when a certain doddery former Labour leader was elected chairman of a committee looking into nuclear disarmament: "Foot Heads Arms Body".

honez 79 Posted September 14, 2004 Ah yes.... the days of Euro 96 when Kuntz tried to go for the ball that had Seaman all over it... Chortle.

DJ_GARRETT 0 Posted September 20, 2004 I wouldn't be so quick to say hasta la vista to that jerk bin laden. he's about as dead as saddam is. For someone who claimed that he'd die for his cause, the old bastard is very good at hiding under his rocks.We haven't seen or heard the last from that peice of trash. As far as bombing all over there, we can't do that because that would place us at his level. He doesn't care about murdering innocent people....we do.
