Amy Winehouse dead.

...and screaming "AAAAADRIIIAAAAAANNNNN!!!"

Complications his mother suffered during labor forced her obstetricians to use two pairs of forceps during his birth; misuse of these accidentally severed a nerve and caused paralysis in parts of Stallone's face. As a result, the lower left side of his face is paralyzed, including parts of his lip, tongue, and chin, an accident which has given Stallone his trademark snarling look and slightly slurred speech.

For some reason I read that and imagine a grown Stallone's head coming out of a woman's vag while a doctor tries to pull it out with forceps.

I pictured this too and it didn't bother me until just now when I read your post and realized I was picturing a grown man's head coming out of a vagina.

Hey, resurrecting this thread just in time for Throwback Thursday.  My Slacker Coffeehouse keeps playing a lot of Winehouse stuff and the more I find out about Winehouse, the more I feel bad about my general apathy to her death.  (I don't think it helps that I'm going through an emotional time right now either.)  Not like I'm filled with regret about it or anything, but kinda like that cringey-twingeyness you'd get after you kick a really ugly puppy.  I saw a picture of her performing before the fame and you could actually see a spark of happiness in her.  Like she was doing something she truly loved.  Once she became famous, it's all dead and she's this hollow, strung-out shell.

I was never a big fan of the song "Rehab."  My first exposure to it was through the music video.  I remember thinking, "Shit, this bitch needs rehab."  I like to sing it jokingly, but it has taken on that tone similar to "Stuck in the Middle with You" now being associated with creepy ear cutting.  I do like a couple of her songs now all these years later (I never did before), but then I made the mistake of looking for her performing them.  It's painful.  I don't know how people could watch her sing.  I would've walked out and demanded a refund.  She looks slammed in nearly everything I found.  It was inevitable that she was going to Darwinize herself and shame on everybody around her because they all enabled this shit.


Also... Zsa Zsa's still going.  But this could be her year.

Zsa Zsa Gabor was rushed to the ER Monday ... 2 days after her 99th birthday, TMZ has learned.

Gabor was having difficulty breathing ... husband Frederic von Anhalt tells us.

Zsa Zsa's doctor came to her home and removed mucus from her throat, but it didn't cure the problem. Zsa Zsa was admitted to an L.A. hospital Monday morning.

Docs determined she has a feeding tube-related lung infection.

We're told Zsa Zsa's scheduled to undergo surgery to have her breathing tube removed.

Gabor has made frequent trips to the hospital over the last decade. Her right leg was amputated in 2011.

She hasn't been seen in public for years.

Good lord...

Feeding tube-related lung infection = aspiration pneumonia. All things considered, she's probably a goner.

Wish I'd kept up my rotation in the dead pool I was part of on another forum. I had her in my top five....

I wonder how lucid she is.  What kind of life do you have at that state?  Like, is she really grateful to be alive?  I mean, if she is, great.  But I remember seeing my grandpa when he was 99.  He looked like an ill-timed gust of wind would crush him.
















Yeah, so anyway, I'm adding Dumps to my dead pool.

I had Obama on mine for years. Finally I realized nobody was going to man up and kill the bastard...he was only the second black president, but by that time I'd quit the pool altogether so the point was kind of moot anyway.

As for Dumps, I've never seen a president get assassinated. We may all witness history get made soon.

I need to time my visit to Arby's just right.  I want to say I was at an Arby's when Dumps was killed.  I don't think it'll be with a gun.  Because a liberal is likely to do it and liberals can't use guns.

[Rama]

Nah...A liberal would do it and then say that if we had proper gun control that they wouldn't have been able to buy the gun and shoot trump. Then Obama takes ALL OUR GUNS!!! What? Mind blown right?

It's not so far-fetched: that's what Operation Fast & Furious was about.  It's also proof that you don't need Vin Diesel to make something suck fastly and furiously.

Meanwhile I've hoped for an asteroid to obliterate the Capitol at every state of the union address for years. It's not like natural disasters haven't been used to craft shitty political policy before, right?...
