The Official 2021 Death Pool
-
It's 2021 in Eastern Asia and Australia so I'm gonna kick this off now.
So, who's gonna kick the bucket this year? Is this the sad year Betty White will perish? Will Kamala Harris get a promotion? Will Tim in the sales department who keeps promising new customers features we don't have nor will ever consider finally get what's coming to him as soon as it's safe to meet him face to face? Only time will tell!

I predict COVID-19 will die this year

Things looking good so far this year!

Unlikely. Even with a working vaccine, it took over 20 years to eliminate polio from America, and it's still around elsewhere in the world over 60 years later.

It begins.

@izzion I'll settle for eBay.

According to other, visiting teams supporters, the proper words for that song were “You'll never work again.”

I wonder if any doctor breaking bad news ever sang "you'll never walk again"

I wonder how many times they will rotate his coffin before laying it down.

Hopefully it survives the hard drop

@izzion
I mainly hope that he files all the lines at once or we're left with 1/4 of a coffin.

I hope he picked a coffin shaped like the long piece. Any of the other shapes will be awkward to bury.

I think he was the only guy who could actually say he knew Objective-C. Shame.

As Harold Washington famously said of the corrupt former mayor of Chicago, Richard Daley, "I'm not glad he's dead, but I'm glad he's gone."

How different people's take on it is:
-
-
@boomzilla Why is "dies aged 80" in scare quotes?
-
@boomzilla to keep with the times the bull should be replaced by a fry_take_my_money?
-
-
-
@boomzilla cause of death?
heart failure
-
Fry's Electronics is gone, not that there was much left.
-
@Parody Sad times. :(
I only know Fry's from a brief visit in 2008 when I was in California, but I was impressed with it in my limited experience.
