Dead Pool Round 76: Dog Dayz Edition

So they finally let the poor kid go. The commenter Formerly Known as Skeptic wins dick with Bobbi Kristina Brown. A short, sad story and not much good to come of it.

Except, you know, Skeptic won dick.

Okay, you ready?

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. Plus (Pupster’s Rule) no picking someone who’s only famous for being the oldest person alive.

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? Also, make sure you have a correct spelling of your choice somewhere in your comment. These threads get longish and I use search to figure out if we have a winner.

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’ve won before, send me your address again. I don’t keep good records.

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

The winner, if the winner chooses to entrust me with a mailing address, will receive an Official Certificate of Dick Winning and a small original drawing on paper suffused with elephant shit particles. Because I’m fresh out of fairy shit particles.

Maybe he’ll die so he doesn’t have to outlive his monstrous offspring: Jacques Delors, ex-President of the EU and begetter of the euro. (He declared in 2011 that the euro as implemented was doomed from the start; but he never said so at the time.)

Admin note: I’ve been reviewing the entries, and I find that Ripley could not have won Round 72 with B.B. King, because it was ipley who picked him. Ripley had previously picked Norman Lloyd.

If, as Ms. Weasel ruled, “ipley” was a typo of “Ripley”, then the “ipley” pick of B.B. King was void.

I may dig through the entries to find who did win. Or just forget about it. “What difference does it make now?”

First off: Congrats to Formerly Known as Skeptic FTW – (BTW: Just ‘tween us’ns, happy to see that the “family/med center bribery” thingy seems to have worked out well for you – was gettin’ a bit of a pain, waiting around for ’em to “man-up” and pop the cork without any added “incentive”, wasn’t it just?…Wait, whut?…you didn’t? – REALly?…Ah – well then, nice timing, chappy! Congrats again!!)

Secondly: Wait, now…my much-aged-though-faithful-and-rather-beloved (whenitworksrightwhichitstoppeddoingdeadbangThursdaylateP.M.) ol’ Faithful Dell coughed, gagged an’ locked-up rather brick-ishly (not even a farewell Blue Screen Of Death, mind you…), late on Thursday eve – necessitating my consultation of The Oracle (i.e., Costco and Best Buy, the only-sorta-tech-savvy-an’-sorta-cheap-o-chap’s boon companions) on Friday eve (after a loo-o-ong day of Technical Slavery to the lesser gods of employment), with a (mercifully) brief return-engagement on Saturday AyeEmm, concluding with a rebirth to The Land Of Tha InnerToobs…all that delay an’ obfuscation an’ such fuss-‘n-feathers…yet still, my near-perennial Dead Pool choice of Red-Pants Janey Insaney Fonda remains available?!?

O, be (relatively) still, my beating heart…

Very well, Jane (the) Fonda (of whom one could hardly be less fond – ah), it shall be for me…so shall it be said, so mote it shall be. C’maaahn, Janey, croak it quick – you can do it, you know you can!!

Third (and Final): Someone please run by, an’ check up on SomeVeg, yes? He put in a brief appearance Friday PeeEmm, but made no pick atall (apparently), an’s not been seed since…Whatup, dood?
