Spade_Cooley 9,525 Posted March 14, 2019 For those on the QO hunt, The Times is clearly cleaning out a backlog. Of the four obituaries published today, three (transgender drone pioneer Bobbi Swan, archaeologist Roger Mercer and Wrecking Crew member Joe Osborn) died in 2018. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,970 Posted March 14, 2019 I guess if they're really bored they'll have the Michael Gielen obit soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Creep 7,070 Posted March 17, 2019 So this will be classic SC luck. Having lived through the ND Tiwari disappointment, I intentionally cut Parrikar probably one of my last 5 cuts. Decided I wasn't going to live through that QO horseshit again. So let's see this time. Tiwari was every bit as high level, AND had tabloid to boot. Parrikar should have LESS of a chance to obit, frankly. So he will. And I will just avoid DDP, can't figure out the QO thing. #NotMyLocalMediaOutlet SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,443 Posted March 18, 2019 Well fuck a duck! Capon got a QO! I think this put my No-Obits theme team in line for Player of the fucking Month. What a day!

Joey Russ 7,226 Posted March 21, 2019 Er, I just checked the list of the lost. Is Miriam Rivera actually dead, or did you accidentally put her in for someone else (cause I can’t find anything about her death)... EDIT: I see the rumors now but Wikipedia still has her as alive. Weird... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weird... Yeah, I’m 95% sure she really is dead. The only other explanation I can think of is someone stole her identity to further their porn career, and that person died. But yeah, I think Miriam’s dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
