Death Pool 2024!

Postby Kurt » Tue Nov 28, 2023 7:29 pm

Rules are no one 90 years old and older. Pick as many or as few as you like.

1. Bryan Johnson (46 year old dude spending 2 Million per year to look and be "young" again) Will die of some form of vegetable related Hubris.

2. Brian Wilson (he's old but really I just felt like adding another Brian to this.)

3. Hulk Hogan. (steroids will eventually catch up)

4. Bernadette Peters. (haven't thought of her for a while) A hidden illness

5. George Santos. Gets shot because his fantasist life collides with reality and reality hates his guts.

6. John Paul Mac Isaac (That weird Scottish Cosplayer guy) Tops himself because his fantasist life collides with reality and reality hates weird little shits like him. A "Deep State Visit" will be blamed.

7. Shane McGowan. This will make me sad...Hope I am wrong but his life past the age of 30 has been pretty much gravy anyway.

8. A Flagger. This board itself is 19 years old, the board itself is 27. We are getting to the age where were are prone to croaking cuz of age related problems rather than travel related problems.

Funny, I just went to change my password to this site and noticed that there is an option in the control panel to leave your ICQ number!

2023 was his year.

Any addition until 23:59:59 GMT (lets go Colony with this) can be made, which will come in handy if Shane McGowan croaks before then.

Wayne Newton (old age)

Putin (Murdered in a coup d'état)

Madonna (overdose)

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce (private jet crash)

Speaking of plane crashes, not that this is in the pool, well it is now, we are overdue for a large major airline crash in the United States. So, I will throw that out there.

Damn that aged quickly. I still win though, since I also picked him in 2023. Gotta celebrate the small victories.

Frikken sucks.

My 2024 replacement for Shane is John Lydon.

Which I also hope is wrong.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas

Shannon Doherty

Toby Keith

Putin, of course

Ralph Nader

Joyce Carol Oates

Vince McMahon

Dick Cheney

I don’t want to hazard a guess as to which flagger dies because there are so few of us, and I’m getting to the age where I’m seeing my peers die (too young). Ever since I read A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving I’ve believed that your moment of death is predetermined, though I know mine won’t be from throwing myself on a grenade to save a roomful of nuns.
