Dead Pool 193: and now we’re all sad
Scott Adams is dead and now we’re all sad. Uncle Al takes the sad dick. Now let’s pick up our skirts and carry on…it’s what he would have wanted.
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.

Will you go ahead and go to he?? so we can celebrate like the Venezuela people did when Trump took out Maduro.
Good Luck RushBabe. I was wavering on it I wanted to poach her. But I would rather see George going first.

Stuck in a Bureau of Motor Vehicles with all the denizens you might expect, and time moving in reverse; almost missed The Pool!
I’ll stick with Louis “Divinity has a penchant for probing my pooper” Walcott aka Farrakhan. May his wheelchair take him trundling into a tire fire, screaming all the way.

Retired opthalmologist and tennis player Renée Richards (age 91)
BTW, Richards has reviewed her playing record – as a physician. She now agrees with President Trump that biological men, even after feminization, retain unfair physical advantages and should not compete in women’s sports. Kudos for the honesty.

Switching it up yet again and picking George R. R. Martin, author – most notably of “Game Of Thrones”. Born September 20, 1948, that makes him 77 years old, and he’s not looking any better with time.
C’mon George, we all know “Winds Of Winter” will never be completed. Just give it up already.

I’ll stay with Nick Shirley, because he is still making official and unofficial enemies and politics is getting more primitive.

I don’t suppose it would be in the rules to pick the entire Senate Panel that’s trying to interrogate the Clintons having a naked mass suicide event in some state or national park would it?
Klaus Schwab then. The vampire treatments can only keep him running for so long.

Lou Holtz
One of the best coaches for Notre Dame. They won a national championship in 1988.
He is also a great motivational speaker. Joe Buck once asked him what made a great coach and his reply was simple “Winning”

ugh…Bud Cort’s passing is so sad. I saw ‘Harold & Maude’ while in high school and he inspired me to try out for several school plays. I wasn’t cut out to be a thespian but he helped me out of my comfort zone then and it has served me well ever since…RIP
