They're probably thinking of Phyllis Schlafly. Scalia bit it, too.

I would be okay with Thatcher dying every year.

I would say that I hope that Tom Waits doesn't eat it next, but lets be honest, he died decades ago. It's just taken some time for his mind to catch up.

Tom Waits came out with "Bad As Me" in 2011 (man, that has been a little while), and it was just as good as his other 2000s-era output. He's been coming out with great albums since the early '70s, and while his style has changed, he never went through any creatively rough or bad periods, like pretty much everyone else, ever. The man is still awesome -- singer, songwriter, storyteller, interview subject, raconteur, legend. I saw him perform live in 2006, and it was the third-best night of my life, after my wedding and engagement party. When AND IF Tom Waits ever passes away, I'm going to be a loving wreck. I dread reading that headline every single time I hear about a celebrity death. I will need to take a personal day off work, and I may have to start drinking again, which I am also dreading. He and his music have meant so much to me, I can't even put it into words.

Clearly hate keeps you alive longer. Also Thatcher and Scalia can die every year to balance it out.

I feel like we could safely lose Thomas. At least Scalia had a bit of charm by all accounts.

Just made a rare appearance at one of our local comic shops to pick up Love Is Love. They posted on Facebook that there is a limit of one per person, and they had a limited supply and wouldn't be able to reorder it, so I didn't hesitate. I was planning to get a copy today anyway, and I'm glad I did. Just flipping through it, it looks fantastic, and I'm sure it will be heartbreaking and beautiful. I was expecting a thick comic book with staples, but IDW went all out, binding it as a trade paperback. If you get a chance, it should be well worth your $10, and all the proceeds go to a great organization, Equality Florida, that will be donating everything to survivors of the Pulse nightclub shooting, and families of those who were killed. I live in the Orlando area, and my wife and I have plenty of LGBT friends and students who were regulars at Pulse, so saying it hit close to home is an understatement.

I saw a bumped Garry Shandling death thread elsewhere last night. For some reason I had no memory of that happening and took it as new. Sounded typical. I'd expect eight more famous people to kick it before the end of the week. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 23:39 on Dec 28, 2016 |

Yeah, but coming from the person clamoring for attention over a supposed telegraphed death on the other side of the planet I find little reason to trust their sincerity. Stan Lee is still alive and a year older though. Not sure if that makes 2016 good or bad 'round these parts.
