Rip Thread

You’re a nutter. Love it.

 

I forgot Bob Hoskins had passed. Have me a shock?!

 

Frank Gehry, designer of some of the most iconic buildings of our time, among these the Guggenheim Bilbao, the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles and Berlin’s DZ Bank Building.

RIP.

 

I thought the Guggenheim was one of Frank Lloyd-wrights designs. Different Frank
Rip

 

New York Guggenheim = Frank Lloyd Wright
Bilbao Guggenheim = Frank Gehry

 

RIP to the guy, but his buildings had little appeal to me

 

You don’t consume enough magic mushrooms

 

Watching him as a kid was a part of my childhood. Clever comedy from a very clever man.

Here's a very topical clip. RIP.

 

He was convincing in drag. You could tell he was Scottish.

 

He was way ahead of his time

 

Peter Greene died yesterday, appeared in The Mask, and Pulp Fiction

 

Zeds dead baby, Zeds dead (rip)

 

Frankly I'm surprised this isn't already on here. Not only is Rob Reiner - as in This Is Spinal Tap; When Harry Met Sally - and others that escape me for the moment - dead, he and his wife - unless this is a windup - AI hallucination, say - were found stabbed to death and it's being treated as a double homicide.

Their son, Nick, has been charged.

Others I've actually seen:

The Sure Thing
Stand by Me
The Princess Bride
Misery
A Few Good Men
The American President

 

As big and horrific as this story is it has unfortunately been overshadowed by the silly responses of Trump
He’s been on social media claiming they deserved it as they were outspoken anti- trump activists!
The backlash has been interesting.

RIP the Reiners.

 

Really? It was bad enough when he impugned John McCain's war record.

I think it must be the chlorine wash, or the antibiotics. Or a bad GM strain. Because I'm sure there'll be tens of millions who'll lap it up.

 

He didn’t say anything too outrageous but as per the TDS pitchfork brigade have jumped all over it.

The same brigade that couldn’t hide their disappointment when that bullet skimmed his ear.

Or, on the other hand, there are all manner of neuro deficits. I'm sure we can all remember there used to be paedophiles who thought their obviously-damaged predilection was a legitimate lifestyle choice and political stance, openly argued. To be unable to see something so universal has to be nature rather than nurture; perhaps something like how ADHD appears to be an underperforming dopamine system, that amphetamine genuinely compensates for.

 

Tribal group think, exacerbated by vested interests owning media and further compounded by attention deficit. Turkeys voting for two Christmases per year will be the next big trend...
