I'm not sure he seemed like a responsible driver, at times there were a few pedestrians around. And his donuts could've been a little tighter, like figure skater's.

No shtein...watched the Elvis movie last night and was reading up on her and her mom to see what they've been up to.
Was the movie good?

It was decent. It takes a moment to adjust to the directors storytelling and film style. Austin Butler did a great job as Elvis. It's really more of a story about the Colonel being a gigantic piece of shtein.
Good looking broad. RIP.

Jerry Blavat, the Geater with the Heater, ex-DJ, Margate Bar Owner (Memories) dead at 82.
Truly a good guy. I lived 5 doors from his bar and even though we were at least 20 years younger than his usual customers, he always welcomed us.
RIP Geater, you magnificent Jew!

Richard Belzer aka Detective Munch
And his last words reportedly, by his friend, were farg you motherfarger.
Jimmy Carter is in hospice and Tom Sizemore suffered a brain aneurysm so they'll sadly be on the list soon
belzer kept a low profile lately but he was a qanon freak who loved alex jones...he was famously a big conspiracy guy in the 80s and 90s when it was jfk and man on the moon shtein so kind of a natural progression there. reading about that kinda ruined his death for me because i always dug him
Oh man yeah that changes the thoughts on him

Jerry Springer
Good riddance, ringmaster of civilization's end.
Aw, come on man. He hated no one.
I think he called himself ringmaster of civilization's end. But if he hadn't, I'd wished I did. Still not as vile as those celebrity judges.
The woman who got Emett Till killed is also dead. Good week for losing bad people.
Gordon Lightfoot
Macnow was telling the story about how Jim Brown retired. He was the best player in the league and won the rushing title 8 of the last 9 years. He was filming The Dirty Dozen and filming was gonna run a few weeks into camp, he calls Art Modell and asks permission to miss a few weeks so they could wrap up filming. Modell says no get your ass here or I'm fining you. Brown thought about it overnight then said farg you I'm retiring. Legend.
then he beat his woman (rinse, wash, repeat for an additional 40 years)
he also did many, many good things. but the repeated violence specifically toward women is pretty inexcusable.,.for most of us
Tina Turner
Dayum
Tina Turner
For SD: she was Ike's female (punching bag.)
Really unique career, her stardom peaked in her late 40s and early 50s. Went from a sharecropping family to living in a chateau on the shore of Lake Zurich. I recently watched Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome and was blown away to see her playing the female lead. A true original.

The Iron Sheik

I've always hoped that it was actually him typing away. I guess we'll find out soon.
Legitimately shocking that he survived into his 80s.

Pat Robertson, 93.

Maybe the Iron Shiek is giving him a camel clutch right now...
Robertson was a legitimately evil piece of garbage. Divisive, racist, bigoted, homophobic and an outright offense to humanity. I hope Satan is getting him settled in for an eternity filled with Jimmy Swaggart and Jerry Falwell taking turns ass raping him.
In my opinion, this man was the best regional reporter in NPR's stables...I'm genuinely saddened by his passing. He was fantastic.

This would be my guess too. I believe she's attempted on multiple occasions and her son's death was a suicide.
I liked her.
Me too.
Her tune Black Boys on Mopeds slayed me as a kid, still amazes me.
She was right about the Catholic Church before it was cool.

Accomplished the rare feat of being fired by the Phils while in first place... albeit at 43-42.
Trio of ex-Phils here. Dave Stewart throwing at Julio Franco and then being charged by Pat Corrales who decided to karate kick Stewart - he chose poorly.
Also in another case of the Phillies always having the wrong brother - they traded BJ Surhoff's brother Rich to Texas for Stewart.

Truly astounding the empire that guy built on a single song. Rich white motherfargers everywhere about to go through some shtein in Daytona Beach today.
Former lead singer of Smashmouth Steve Harwell, 56.
I couldn't hum one bar of any song they made. No f'n clue.
Anyone who lived through 1999 has heard "All Star". Unfortunately.
If I look it up I'm sure I'll know it. But just off their name, I can't bring it to mind.
Not that I've accomplished anything better in my life, mind you.
I know that song because my nephew played it over... and over... and over again.
if you left your house in the 90s you know every single word to that song.
Maybe Dio was a hermit in his younger days
No no, I'm sure I would recognize it...it just doens't pop into my head and I'm not looking it up.
I hate the song tbh
It's not catchy like Mr Brightside or some of the others you'll hear when stadiums and whatnot play them.
It was in Shrek you goobers. I know we're all in our 40s and older, but Shrek was a cultural touchstone when it came out.
What's Shrek, and I'm not looking it up.
lol
Best Shrek soundtrack cut was "People Ain't No Good" by Nick Cave. great song.

Dianne Feinstein, 90. Tragic snowboarding accident.
She was doing rails of coke?
I don't think she could lift a can of coke herself in the last couple years...she was an animated shell casting votes for the Democratic party...an embarrassment. I think her aids had to guide her hand to the button and help her depress it.
Wonder who Newsome puts up for her spot
The party honchos want Adam Schiff in that spot, but Newsom has said repeatedly that he would appoint a black woman if a spot opened up. Barbara Lee is a black woman who was already running for the seat in 2024, but is unacceptable to the party honchos, and they don't want to give her a head start on '24 by making her the incumbent.
So the smart money is on Newsom putting in some placeholder black lady who will vote along with whatever Schumer wants, and promises to not run for reelection so that the way is cleared next year for the party's boy.
I wonder if Newsome ever runs for prez?
newsome is def running in 28, along with shapiro and whittmer and harris and im sure a bunch of others. gonna be a shtein show if we are even allowed to have elections then
There will always be elections. It's just a matter of whether they are free and fair, and if you get a visit in the night after voting a certain way...In Russia, Putin wins every election, but they do have them.

RIP Matthew Perry - dead at 54.
Apparent drowning let TMZ - in a hot tub. He'd been suffering from drug issues over the years.
I don't know if his demons finally took him out but it's a damn shame none the less.
Nothing particularly shocking about a drug addict dying.
A lifetime of drug abuse fargs up your body. No denying that. He's just as dead regardless if he had a heart attack or a stroke. Still a sad ending to a life cut way too short.
Body does just fine with clean heroin. Alcohol much worse for you.
Dude, you need to get some cleaner alcohol.
I was watching Dateline NBC a few nights ago and Keith Morrison was doing his narrating thing - it was bothering me because I learned an interesting fact about him earlier in the week and couldn't remember what it was. Literally 20 min later my wife was like Matthew Perry died. Then it clicked that's what I couldn't remember - Keith Morrison is (was) Matthew Perry's stepfather.
Anyway, just a creepy coincidence I guess.
I never knew that. Morrison is the best at narrating those type of mystery shows.
Also TMZ continues to prove what scumbags they are by stalking Perry's parents and photoing them as they arrived at Perry's house.
Yeah SVU and Dateline are pretty much the only shows I've watched in the last decade. Pretty farged up lol.
I haven't even watched the L&O's like I used to. Other than 2020, Dateline and occasional Shark Tank or Hell's Kitchen I don't think I have seen any network shows either.
I found this old show on HBO Max. The Wire. Have you guys heard of it?
No but I've heard I should watch it.
Any good?

This question will continue to grow over the remaining decades of your life. Could I OD at this party turns into did I accidentally take my heart pill twice today? Should I blow this red light turns into did I just almost run over a bicyclist at night? And forgetting to put on a belt before going out to dinner becomes forgetting to put on your pants before walking the dog. Yes, these can happen to you.

I guessed wrong. Autopsy rules out suicide and drug overdose, classifies her demise as resulting from natural causes.
