The rule of 3's.
And this sucks, Dolly and now Tim...
It has struck again, unfortunately. RIP Peter Cullen
DAMMIT! I don't like this rule...
It wont be the evil one. It will be someone else I really respected.
What about the guy thst once ambushed Bill Gates with pies?
Also 80
Not as famous but its a honorable mention.
I want my obit to refer to me as a notorious pie thrower.
Well, for starters, how many pies have you thrown?
As of now, zero. But I'd like to think I've got time to rack up some numbers.
Do you respect anyone really evil? Can you please start real quick?
Nothing good ever happens
Someone find and bubble wrap Keith Richards.
Willie, Keith Richards is immortal.
and Iggy Pop
Attenborough too.
I swear that guy is immortal! Like Iggy Pop
Some people OD and die, some can't seem to OD because it pickles them... I hope both these guys live on for another 20 years
My grandfather was pickled, he drank at least 1/2 to 3/4 of a bottle of gin a day. Nicest guy in the world thank God. He made it to 91, taught me how to fish and work on boat motors.
Hayden Panettiere died the other week :(
Sam Neill too.
Wait, now we've got four. Oh, shit.
Missed that one. She was pretty young too.
Totally forgot, then the rule of 3's is satiated... for now.
