I thought the joke was super meta, and it was Tim Curry using an account saying NotTimCurry. Of course I've been so irony poisoned that I don't know if you all are doing a bit, and it's actually Tim Curry.

That account isn't actually Tim Curry, though I also thought it was at first. It says in the profile that it's a parody account. I've seen official accounts in the style of "notWhoever" before, so that wasn't an indication.

But, separately to this account posting, Google and Wikipedia indicate that the actual Tim Curry is alive.

He had a stroke a few years ago, but survived it, you might be thinking of that?

No idea. Probably. Or I got it from someone who made that mistake and said he was dead, maybe :shrug:

I’m guessing Curry was the victim of one of those dumb death hoaxes that always used to go around.

Tim Curry is the perfect level of fame for a death hoax to work, too. Everyone at least kinda knows who he is, but not enough to be keeping track, and he's not really doing anything current.

Giant Bomb had a staff member (intern? I forget his exact role) who, for years, many of their audience knew as "Dave in Alaska".

His name is Dave Nillasca.

You are not alone. I never once questioned Dave in Alaska or Jason A Striker. Maybe I should have, but maybe we should just embrace odd monikers. If you tell me you’re Dave in Alaska, who am I to challenge you?
