Twitch, off the Ellen Degeneres Show,. His fish was a self-inflicted gunshot wound. He was 40.

Also, remember the side character Angel on The Rockford Files, played by Stuart Margolinm he carked it. I assume his fish was pancreatic cancer, he was diagnosed 10 yrs ago. He was 82.

And Cher's mom(!), Georgia Holt died. She was 96.

He ain't a person, but he was famous:

P-22, dead at 12-13 years old.

It's the end-of-year rush -is there a tax penalty if you start another year?

Ken Block, snowmobiling accident. He was 55.

Whoever that guy is, good job. Dying at 55 on a snowmobile sounds pretty epic.

Cause of Death = COD
Cod = a type of fish

I swear, the worst part about COVID is that I can no longer safely assume that a young-ish celebrity's "heart attack" was really a drug overdose. She might have honestly died of an unexpected heart attack! How am I supposed to feel smug and gossipy now???

It's been a real problem for the bodybuilding industry, too, as a lot of them have died in the last few years, probably from drug abuse, but.. maybe?

Doesn't have to be either-or.

I had no idea what her age would be, turns out to be damn close to my cohort.

footfootfoot · 1/14/2023 1:15 pm

My go to, when I hear about a 50 something person in otherwise good health suddenly dying, has always been coke. Unless they were wearing tennis clothes or shoveling snow. You're telling me I have to update my prejudices? Why do I feel so cancelled?

griff · 1/15/2023 6:50 am

So cancel culture is just us being Old and In The Way?

TheNeverWas · 1/15/2023 9:15 pm

There's a couple guys playing around the bars around here that go by Old and In The Way...

I'm old, and he's in the way...
