Heat Miser's dead.
It's going to be a cold winter in Southtown this year :(
In case anyone has forgotten... NBC presents a (much too long) list of all the famous people who died this year.
I feel like there are a few that aren't even on the list and the list is long :(

This is why I am not scared to fly, I see people harp about plane crashes and terrorists and all that shit but I see it this way... life is limited so eh if it is going to end it is going to end. And honestly id rather it end at 700mph into something solid than slowly and hooked up to tubes like I am locutus of borg.Quote:

What's the joke I heard a few years back? Why doesn't GRRM use Twitter?
He can't, he killed all 140 characters.
One last kick in the pants from 2016.

Would it make sense to start/sticky a yearly death thread rather than having one giant one?
Technically it started as a death pool thread, where people would guess who was going to pass away next. For that you need continuity. But it has sort of evolved to an obit thread.
