Dead Pool 181: Farewell to Jimmy
The day has come at long last; Jimmy Carter has shuffled off and BullDawgGuy takes the dick. First president to live to 100.
What will you remember him for? Telling you to turn down the thermostat and put on a sweater? The lust in his heart? Smacking a swamp rabbit with an oar?
Me, I’ll remember him for the hilarious spectacle of all the living presidents, vice presidents, first ladies and second gentleman interacting awkwardly at his funeral. Thanks for the laughs, Jimmy!
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.
Note: I am woefully behind on dick deliveries. If I owe you one, you’ll know how long. I ain’t gived up, but I haven’t drawn much since lockdown. Some day, your heirs might hear from my heirs.

Hoaxes be damned, I’m sticking with Louis “I got diddled by Divinity on a flying saucer!” Walcott, AKA Farrakhan. Asshat, racist fükknuckle. Being trampled by his own followers would be entertaining.

You’re not confused, Fritz. I just happened to stop by early and thought perhaps I had stumbled into a temporal anomaly.
Stoaty, the swamp rabbit attack is one of the best moments! But I’ll remember him most for being a SCOAMF in his ‘handling’ of the Tehran hostage crisis. Good riddance.

Sorry @Rushbabe but I wanted Dick for the big Dick because he is a big Dick and got here late (early) so not sure who else to pick.
So adding my comment about one of the Worst POTUS there ever was. If you don’t pay attention to the Mass Media you will realize he was not a very good person as well as a bad president. If you look at his record, he was the true first socialist president. Even the use of John Lennon’s song confirms his true beliefs. He was like Bill in the sense he knew how to read the media and perform for them. I am tired of the Mass Media trying to tell us people were good people when in reality they were not. Just look at Helen Thomas. She was antisemitic but the media covers her like she was a saint in her death and that one event was a slipup.

Going for Dick Van Dyke, again. Time for the old song-and-dance man to shuffle off the stage.

@Lester
I too checked in early as was watching the snow float a nice 4 inch coating on my daughter’s lawn in East Nashville.
Picked a doozy of a time for a visit but after leaving snow country over 40 years ago, it is beautiful—albeit a pain in the arse. They don’t plow or salt in her neighborhood and the hills are not conducive to anyone being safe if I were to venture out.

Gavin Newsom because…just because.
It was a hard choice between Gavin and LA Mayor Karen Bass, and incompetent sexual deviants “running” the LAFD and supporting agencies.

Sean John Combs also known as Diddy, and formerly Puff Daddy and P. Diddy, the big question is diddy write Do Wah Diddy Diddy Dum Diddy Do. Or did he take his name from the song, Doesn’t matter won’t be alive to testify.

@Mark Matis
I don’t disagree with you on Frankie but Frankie did not live his personal life like a socialist. His presidential policies put America on the wrong path and we still pay for them today in every paycheck. Jimmy on the other hand lived his life like a true socialist. Appearing to help others and not leaving a trail of wealth creation. Claiming to be a Christian but embracing an agnostic attitude. While I am not the ultimate Judge on good or evil I do think @Durnedyankee got it right in his deadpool pick.

I’m going with Björn Ulvaeus, aged 79 (4/25/45), singer and songwriter, member of the musical group ABBA.
All four members of ABBA are still alive and getting old. Björn is the oldest. One of them has got to kick the bass drum sooner or later.

I am surprised he has not been picked yet.
But then again, he may live a long time. You know he has to have dirt on the Clintons.
