Dead Pool 185: it’s Summertime!

Lavendergirl takes DP184 with Bobby Sherman. I told Uncle B he’d died, and he said, “yeah, I read that. I wasn’t sure it would mean anything to you.”

As it happens, I was ex-actly the little girl demographic he was aimed at. I’d’ve been eight at the beginning of Here Come the Brides and I hit puberty before it was over (but no, I was not a fan).

At this very moment, I hope I am enjoying a glass of wine at a party, but you gruesome lot can start sharing your death notes:

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.

Televangelist who loved to minister to ladies of the evenings.
He went to more confessions than Cradle Catholics.

Now that his fruit son has married, he can leave this Earth and go mingle with his friends in HELL. I am sure Saten will roll out the red carpet for him.

@RushBabe What happened to your normal pick?

I’ve got nothing at all against Dick Van Dyke, but he is after all now 100 years old, so a more than eligible pick. I wish him well, but I’m gonna poach him this round.

He’s outlived his usefulness to the party. Nancy only had Harry Reid roughed enough to retire, but dizzy in the gym reeks of approaching clintoncide.

Larry Hoover – former head of the Gangster Disciples, whose federal sentence was commuted by Trump on 28 May. He still faces 150 years in Illinois – and not getting off that – but I suspect he’s dying of something.

Huh. I thought I put in my pick earlier in the day …but I don’t see it. So I’ll once again declare David Attenborough as my pick.

Mixing it up _again_ and picking Sean “P. Diddy” Combs.

I don’t like having to make this pick, but is does not look good. The Democrats in New York City just picked Zohran Mamdani as their candidate for Mayor. He is functionally an open Communist, has a platform Marx would endorse, and is a Shia-Twelver. The reason I am picking him for the dead pool is that he has so many different groups who are likely to try to take him out. Aside from political opponents and religious opponents who might do it, there is the matter of those who may try to take him out . . . and blame it on the other side either politically or religiously in order to deliberately trigger a violent reaction inside our country or against our country.

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
