Round 43: somebunny’s getting dick for Christmas!

Shit! Sorry I’m late — I thought I hit post!

AltBBrown takes Round 42 and the dick with Oscar Niemeyer. Designed the UN Building in New York, Niemeyer did. Which is like a public housing project next to a slightly curved thing. So now you know why he was famous.

Deep breath. Here we go!

0. Rule Zero (AKA Steve’s Rule): your pick has to be living when picked. Also, nobody whose execution date is circled on the calendar. Also, please don’t kill anybody.

1. Pick a celebrity. Any celebrity — though I reserve the right to nix picks I never heard of (I don’t generally follow the Dead Pool threads carefully, so if you’re unsure of your pick, call it to my attention).

2. We start from scratch every time. No matter who you had last time, or who you may have called between rounds, you have to turn up on this very thread and stake your claim.

3. Poaching and other dirty tricks positively encouraged.

4. Your first choice sticks. Don’t just blurt something out, m’kay?

5. It’s up to you to search the thread and make sure your choice is unique. I’m waayyyy too lazy to catch the dupes. Popular picks go fast.

6. The pool stays open until somebody on the list dies. Feel free to jump in any time. Noobs, strangers, drive-bys and one-comment-wonders — all are welcome.

7. If you want your fabulous prize, you have to entrust me with a mailing address. If you don’t want the fabulous prize, you’re too smart to be a regular. It takes me forever to put them in the mail, packages go by slow boat, typically take minimum eight to ten weeks and lose the will to live along the way.

8. The new DeadPool will begin 6pm WBT (Weasel’s Blog Time) the Friday after the last round is concluded.

The prize? Still a fabulous two-pack of Aunty’s Spotted Dick…!

I’m taking Speaker of the House John Boehner, for purging all conservatives from the House Budget and Finance Committees and setting up to give Obama everything he wants [and then some] while allowing Obama to blame all the bad results on Republicans. Boehner’s goal is to make the Republican Party into part of the Democrats. He thinks Americans will support Leftist Democrat-lite over real Leftist Democrats. How I suspect he will kick off is uncouth enough not to be inflicted on our Gentle Hostess.

I denounce AltBBrown for picking some obscure schmuck from national felon league of shiny-buttocked hormone-injected violent nobodies.

My pick: Heinz Kissinger, statesman, nobel prize laureate, war criminal. If anyone ever doubted that the Great Manhattan Unpleasantness in the fall of 2001 included a lot of governmental assistance, the attempted appointment of Old Heinz to the chair of investigative commission is a dead giveaway.

Heinz Kissinger is not Amish. He is a Turko-Edomite, on his maternal side. For the benefit of his newly acquired American credentials he prefers to be addressed as “Henry”.

I hope that Baraka Hussein Obaba (D-Kogelo) lives to be 94, although given the sketchiness of his credentials, we may never know his actual odometer reading. If we have it bad with marching looter Kong, we ain’t seen nothing yet if BHO bites a big one.

My pick could be either of those. It’s John Dingell, D-ouchebag) of exhaustion, from “trying to control the people” and being as old as da erf.

If you missed his comment regarding ObamaCare:

“Let me remind you this has been going on for years. We are bringing it to a halt. The harsh fact of the matter is when you’re going to pass legislation that will cover 300 American people in different ways it takes a long time to do the necessary administrative steps that have to be taken to put the legislation together to control the people.” —

@ Mija Cat: Saruman did show up in the first Hobbit movie, even if it was just for a few sentences. I enjoyed the film when I saw it with my son, his wife, and my granddaughter.

CHARLES DURNING!!

Ah, damn. Another late hit 🙁

Rest in peace, Mr. Durning.

You know, if this keeps up, there won’t be anyone left except for the old standards in the next round. They’re dropping like flies, I tells ya!

Are the estate taxes going up in 2013? I swear this is some type of tax dodge.

i hope HW holds on until re-Anointing day…

the dueling headlines could potentially be humorous.

read my lips: No New Presidents – only Emperors from here on out. All hail Teh One!

anyway since it looks like Nanny 1 is next in line for Dick – i’ll go with Hank Heimlich

Too late. Thunderbirds Are GO!

Rest in peace, Mr. Anderson.

Dropping like flies, I tell you. Flies. Those big black ones that buzz against your window until you find a whole bunch of them legs up and dead one sunny morning.

Rest in peace, General Schwarzkopf. And thank you for your service to the country. Too bad no one was clairvoyant enough to pick you for the dick.

Dear Just Me,

Oh, man, I hope you win (with your first pick). Hope hope hope. *snicker*

@naleta – I was referring to the book ..

There are a number of subtle laugh lines in the “Lord Of The Rings” movies, for instance Frodo or Sam saying “We’re not even supposed to be here!” at Osgiliath with Faramir.. a city that – in the books – they were never taken to.

Christopher Lee is still forbidden to die.

@ Mija Cat I agree. Christopher Lee can NOT die. One of us who never wins should pick him for the next pool to protect him.

Don’t you think that, at some point, you’ve had enough dick? Wouldn’t it be more fair if you shared some dick with the rest of us? Are you going to consume all that dick or are you going to redistribute some of it?

What’s the old saying?…”you can never be too rich, too thin or have to much dick…”
Redistribution is for commoners.
I fancy myself a Royal dick, thus it’s all mine.
Hurry up and die Hugo.

Luise Rainer, 103 years old. I picked her back in December, but it appears my pick was memory holed.

Did anyone have Dear Abby?

It appears she’s shuffled off … perhaps she’ll get a new gig answering prayers or somesuch.

Great Googlymooglies… nobody had Conrad Bain (TV and stage actor,Maude,Diff’rent Strokes) either? We collectively suck at picking folks that are going to kick it.

Barbara Walters, who hasn’t been a spring chicken in my memory, has the pox.

At her age, this carries the risk of quite a few complications… just puttin’ it out there in case The Fritz does win and we get a new round soon.
