Dead Celebrity Thread

She probably knew and expected it, hence, the new book after so very very long. Smart way to try and take care of someone after you're gone.

And 2016 kills yet another internationally famous author:

Medievalist and novelist Umberto Eco passes away: http://www.medievalists.net/2016/02/20/umberto-eco-medievalist-and-novelist-passes-away/

I always enjoyed Paul Ryan's art style. Enjoy your Valhalla.

Does it make me a bad person if I was hoping it was the other Paul Ryan?

No. No this does not.

Two from me today.
First, the former First Lady Nancy Reagan died at the age of ninety-four.

Secondly, not necessarily a celebrity but someone that we in the online age owe a great deal. Ray Tomlinson, inventor of email (and saviour of the @ symbol) died at the age of seventy-four.

I'll never forget Nancy Reagan's big drug raid where they arrested 14 people for one gram of crack.

And then she followed it up by saying that poor black people were beyond rehabilitating and suggesting that social programs to the poor were a waste of time.

Rot in hell, you old skag.

Prince was just announced dead.

Vorpal

And now Prince is dead.

My dear David Bowie:

Please stop inviting people to your very exclusive concert. Please.
Sincerely, Vorpal.

PS: Don't you dare invite Aretha Fraklin. I mean it.

Arkandel

@Vorpal 2016 is being a total asshole.

Vorpal

@Arkandel Now I'm fearing either Aretha Franklin, Betty White or Nana Mouskouri are next. They're all up there in age...

Arkandel

@Vorpal Well, at least we know Keith Richards will be there to witness the thermodynamic death of the universe. Too bad he won't remember it afterwards.
