This is a 2011 Celebrity Death Thread
« on: 04 Jan 2011, 18:20 »
Man, 2011 is turning into a real cunt, already.

First there was Pete Postlethwaite, and now I'm finding out that Gerry Rafferty has passed away as well. Dude had a lot of problems of alcohol, was 63. Responsible for Baker Street (best saxophone line, guitar solo that sounded like lasers) and Stuck in the Middle With You (best song for removing ears)

We're 2 in 4 days people. Fuck this shit.

No one gives a shit about Anne Francis? Come on guys, you must have seen Forbidden Planet.


Or, at the very least, the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Hey Leslie Nielson was in Forbidden Planet, so, umm, I care about him?

Also I just looked through Anne Francis' IMDB and it didn't list Rocky Horror Picture Show.

We were so excited by the transformation of modern medicine by antibiotics, the NHS and stuff, that some of us resolved to make a life of not dying.   It's working well for me so far...

Man, Kurzweil is a dick.

Also is this a prediction/betting pool thread or a mourning/memorial thread, 'cause I can think of a few who are definitely gonna die.

There's this really handy "other thing" I'm going to write as a footnote to my abstract that I can probably explore these issues in. I think I'll call it my "dissertation."

It is everything you want it to be.

Mostly I figure it's better than making a new thread for every dead dude or lady plus being able to mention folks who died who might not warrant a full thread on their own (like, say, Gerry Rafferty) plus it'll be a solid reminder that 2011 sucks just like last year did and next year will.
