The Gambler himself, Kenny Rogers.

This one made me a little sad when I heard; I grew up with lots of 70s & 80s country music playing on the radio.

Terrence McNally

RIP

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

[epilogue]

Oof... What a legend.

You can make fun of me all you want. But McNally was a tremendous and important voice -- and especially so during the AIDS epidemic. He's one of my community's best and most valuable voices. His passing is sad. And made tragic by the fact that, though 81, it was still too soon. He didn't need to die from complications of COVID-19.

I hope it doesn't happen to someone who means anything to you.

I intend to make that post any time a new name goes upon this thread, regardless of who it is. I just found the original usage (was that by you? Honestly don’t remember) really funny because it could apply to basically anyone.

No harm intended. But also please calm down.

It was me yeah. And I can totally see how it's funny in the context as you explained it.

Too many goddamn drum legends 2020.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Oh man, I need to go back and listen to some old KMFDM

[dimejinky99]

There’ll be some of us in here soon


And ‘that guy died, Ruddo’ won’t be appropriate or funny anymore.

[LoathedVermin72]

Yes it will

[dimejinky99]

Yes it will

I’m chuckling thinking about you bitching about office proximity and not being able to work from home just the other day

[LoathedVermin72]

Yes it will

That problem has been resolved! Started working from home later that day and will be for at least the next three weeks.

[Donald]

Yes it will
