[Breathe]

How is Olivia Newton-John not on that deathlist? She only has weeks at most apparently.

Oh NO.

 

[lolly]

Is she treating her cancer with yoga and chanting again?

 

[Rita]

Her manager has released a statement saying that recent reports are laughable.

[Ellie]

Wasn't there once a rule that we couldn't pick anyone who was known to have a terminal disease?

 

[Indie]

There was. It was scrapped a few years back.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Wasn't there once a rule that we couldn't pick anyone who was known to have a terminal disease?

People were only getting 2 or 3 to win, which I thought was a touch BORING.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Impressively this is now the 11th Moopy Deathpool.

Treating it “naturally” though

Oh I don’t know. Quinoa shakes and a nutritious gruel slabbed on the vagina put paid to my dropsy

 

[Indie]

Impressively this is now the 11th Moopy Deathpool.

12th.

 

[octophone]

Tempted to put together a wish list, just so that I'm never sad when I get one. Although, the terminal frustration if none of them go is unlikely to be good for the blood pressure...

[octophone]

Right, here you go. Totally went for a wish list.

Prince Philip Duke of Edinburgh (Deathlist.net)
HRH The Queen (old couples have a tendancy to die close together, don't they?)
Donald Trump
Mike Pence (suicide - has a wank, enjoys it, can't live with the guilt)
Mickey Rourke

Gary Glitter
Rolf Harris
Bryan Ferry
Britney Spears (it's not her dad, it's her, it's syphilis and it's in her brain)
Terry Gilliam (how sad that such a gifted man has become such a horror)

Robert Mugabe (Deathlist.net - come on, we need this cunt dead just to have the slightest sliver of hope)
Nigel Farage (aneurysm - late Feb/early March)
Robert Kilroy-Silk
R. Kelly (shot dead by the police)
Jeremy Clarkson

Graham Linehan (the other ball has cancer too because karma)
Julie Bindel
Tim Randall Martin (yeah, I'm picking on a lot of Brexiters but all that rage and high blood pressure has to pay off somehow)
Grace Chatto (I know, I know, I just can't fucking stand her - I'd like her to be found impaled on that cricket bat cello of hers)
Ricky Gervais (total wishful thinking but well sick of him getting a bye because he's working out that shooting giraffes is for cunts)

Final 5 - this bunch are alright but I'd like some points

Vera Lynn (Deathlist.net - I like the idea of her dying on what was supposed to be Brexit day, when Brexit doesn't happen)
Murray Walker (just to piss off Rory Bremner)
Terry Jones (Monty Python - you wait ages for a Python to die then two come along at once.)
Bob Dylan (actually, he's alright but this year needs a biggie along the Prince, Bowie, George Michael lines and McCartney seems healthy...)
Sharon Osbourne

 

[Rita]

Burt Reynolds has already left this world @octophone.

 

[Shirley]

otally went for a wish list.

Mmm tempting. Never mind the competition, just compile a list of people you'd like to DROP DEAD.

1. Droopy Drawers

[dmlaw]

Looks like Carol Channing gives @Ag an early lead.

@Mugatu had her on last year's list, so he's paying a price for not entering early...

 

[Mugatu]

I've won five in a row, I decided to take a sabbatical for this year to focus on my spirituality.

 

[Indie]

joint win in 2017

 

[dmlaw]

I've won five in a row, I decided to take a sabbatical for this year to focus on my spirituality.

Yeah, that's the sort of thing that people who know they can't do it again usually say.

 

[Shirley]

I could have sworn Nicholas Parsons DIED

 

[octophone]

Oh Norman Tebbitt, wish I'd thought of him, I'd love to see that horrible old cunt crumble to dust once and for all.

 

[dmlaw]

I could have sworn Nicholas Parsons DIED

You may be suffering from the Parsons Effect, a common phenomenon whereby people falsely believe that Nicholas Parsons died in a South African prison in the mid-1980s.

 

[lolly]

I don't understand how Norman Tebbit isn't about 130 by now

[Indie]

Second half of the year off to a flyer. Hopefully will continue.

 

[Indie]

Can't really tell who is winning this. I have two, think @Ag does also

 

[octophone]

It's been a duff year so far - several genius musicians and a general lack of cunts.
