Dead Pool [68]

It’s not often we have to commiserate with a Dead Pool winner, but commiserations go to Dioclese who has reluctantly won the Dead Pool by nominating Sussanne Cameron-Blackie better known to the blogging community as Anna Raccoon.

We have lost a lady of indomitable will and great wit. Who amongst us could forget her marching up the garden path path and confronting our favourite troll!

Our thoughts go out to her family. The blogosphere will not be the same without her.

So the slate is wiped clean and we move on to Dead Pool 68.

Here are the rules (pay special attention to the first one):

1. Nominate who you think is the next cunt on the way out. You can have up to five choices. List your nominations in the comments of this post. It’s the current Dead Pool. Comments not in this post (e.g. in the previous one or other posts) will be ignored!

2. You win if your Cunt dies first.
Then the slate is wiped clean and we start again. Of course, you can always be a really annoying cunt and steal someone else’s dead cunt candidate from the previous pool (like Black and White Cunt frequently does).

Any cunt who tries to cheat by nominating the World’s Oldest Man or Woman is a cunt and will be ignored. Any anonymous cunt who can’t be bothered to make up a name for themselves will also be ignored. Oh, and the usual “Our Blog Our Rules” thing applies.

Nominations are now open on this post only. Good luck.

  4. I cannot believe Brucie dodged the dead pool. Fuck me he was a regular on here since the beginning. Just goes to show.

  5. Had a surreal experience.The love ofmy life so far has just given birth to a healthy baby boy (we wheren’t together in the last year so he is definitely not mine) and I felt that I should and on balance wanted to congratulate her and her fiance soI dis and the thankful response I got touched me.Genuinely no idea why!Why the hell should I feel touched?It was an act of courtesy at most.I am normally an unemotional bastard at the best of times.

    Apologies for putting tnis onwhat is essentially Anna’s thread.Sure she would love a bit of gossip being shared under her name though.

    • Whatever the reasons might be for the two of you not being together, you made a decent gesture which was obviously appreciated. You probably feel touched because it re-enforced the fact you’re a decent cunt after all. I say good for you. Feel good about yourself, Shaun! Plus it’s the weekend, so put your feet up, enjoy a libation or several and reflect on good times gone by and even more awesome times to come. Cheers – I.Y.

    • Try listening to Schoenberg’s “Verklaerte Nacht”, op. 4; the original Hollywood string 4-tet recording, with extra viola and cello, and it’s got a banging Schubert String 5-tet with it, on the Testament label. The Schoenberg was early, when he was still admired by Richard Strauss of Also sprach Zarathustra / 2001 – A Space Odyssey fame. However, it slightly knocks Strauss’ symphonic poems into a cocked hat…
      You might well find Verklaerte Nacht cathartic – I didn’t hear it until that Scouse stick-waver (currently in Berlin) had it on a Ch 4 progg of C20th music; I fell for it, as did Spokey, our Orange Rex. He just sat in the middle of the room, with his ears up, looking amazed.

      As IY says, onwards and upwards. Break open a bottle, there IS life on the other side… All best wishes, you deserve something good…

  7. Sad that Brucie is gone. Always remember him doing The Generation Game when I was a kid. I loved how he’d take the piss out of the contestants – to their faces – then laugh it off like it was all in good fun. Funny bugger. I wonder what ever happened to “the lovely” Anthea Redfern. Thems were the days.

    • ‘Give us a twirl, Anthea… I’m in charge…’ Top stuff…

      Rosemarie Ford was also rather doable and all…

      • “Right, I’ll make a note of that”, then reaches into his inside jacket pocket to retrieve a notebook and pen. Loved it!

        Rosemarie Ford….oh yes. I also rather fancied Isla St. Clair too, but I think she was on with Larry Grayson.

        Good call, Norm. Good result again today from your lot. Back to back 4-0 wins and Jose still looks a miserable cunt.

      • Good win today, IY… Matic superb again… I’m loving all the cunts who slagged him choking on their humble pie…

        And these two cunts have been seen at United games… I have it on good authority that they are Johnny Come Lately Bogtrotting Paddy Mongs… All I can say is kill them… Kill them both…

      • I still can’t work out why my lot sold him, especially to a team we’re going to be competing against for the title.
        Matic is quality.
        Bad business by Chelsea….

    • Along with Brucie, Jerry Lewis has been nominated in dozens of Pools over the years. But not the latest one.

      • Shame we keep missing these cunts I know Jerry Lewis has been nominated thousands of times too. Not a huge fan but the guys a fighter tho hes had a long history of bad health and disease. How about Dick Gregory though he just recently died?

    • Problem is, we’ve all seen the cunt nominated so many times that its quicker to assume some cunts already picked him than to wait for the eventual message ‘sorry, some cunts already bagged betty white’… But if we miss Kirk Douglas, we need fucking shooting.

      • Was reading the BBC article about Jerry Lewis dying and the picture at the top of the article was captioned “Jerry Lewis was known in later years for controversial statements and Right Wing opinions” .They have removed it now bht very telling they thought that was an appropriate caption for a man with an over 70 year career and a man who raised fuck loads for charity over many years.I mean the man was by all accounts a rude arrogant cunt but he did some decent films and raised the profile of the MDA.

      • “Jerry Lewis was known in later years for controversial statements and Right Wing opinions”

        Rightwing is now officially wrongthink from the PC police especially after Brexit, Trump and Charlottesville I really liked Lewis in bellboy France is probably weeping hes considered a god there

  8. The Scum cunt of a islamist bastard who drove the van in Barcelona is now a dead cunt.
