[cleverlymadeup]

EDIT: Cleverly_Made_Up it's because we haven't had quite this many high profile deaths in awhile.

yes we have, last year just as many high profile ppl died as have this year, same as the year before and the year before that

After what he pulled on south park. May Isaac Hayes rot in hell. Or at the hands of Xenu.

Fuck that guy in his double-standard ass.

Dude, that is way, way past uncalled for.

Statement is not retracted. Isaac Hayes is a douchebag.

Isn't Paul Newman fighting a losing battle with cancer?

Ah, excellent. Nobody cares about him and it's cancer so he's effectively already dead.

I call January.

dude, what? nobody cares about Paul Newman? He's considered one of the greatest actors EVER. i mean he's old as fuck, so it's not exactly surprising that he's gonna die, but i shall miss him none the less...

also, I'm callin Tom Cruise. I don't have any particular reason, I'm just an optimist....

Nobody cares about him? For your information, a lot of people love him. He has nice salad dressings, lemonades etc. and it all goes towards kids with cancer. So, YES, a lot of people care about Paul Newman.

 

[Spartan Bannana]

Didn't they give Patrick Swazye 5 weeks to live?
But isn't he still alive?

 

[electric discordian]

Patrick Swazye is not a man but a concept. He cannot be killed much like Chuck Norris.

As to whose going to die next, as soon as I can put money in my electricity meter and get the stuck door to my basement open Pete Docherty.......

Must buy more hefty bags

[Bulletinmybrain]

And the man comes around....

 

[Hey Joe]

I'm calling Oprah to die next Tuesday....in the conservatory....with the candlestick. Speculating on death is fun!

 

[The Iron Ninja]

Bernie Mac died? Somehow I missed that.

Richard Wright (Keyboardist for Pink Floyd) died last week (I was sad)

Edit: Ha! you have been Ninja'd good sir! Though Richard Wright deserves to be mentioned twice so it's alright.

 

[geddydisciple]

Richard Wright (keyboardist/pianist for pink floyd) died on the 15th of september if you want to count him as a celebrity

edit: the iron ninja must have posted while i was reading the thread.

 

[Dr Pussymagnet]

What about the movie announcer guy, didn't he die?
