Was alerted to this site on the back of the Korean Leaders death, thought it would be a bit of fun to predict who might pop their clogs in 2012. I'm gonna go for Bruce Forsyth  Who else do you think might pop their clogs in 2012? http://www.deathlist.net/ |

Sigh, I got into trouble for running one of these at work about 12 years ago. £1 per week from about 20 people, took ages for it to be won. Think Barbara Cartland it was that scooped about £600 for the lucky winner.

Used to do a "Dead Pool" comp on another forum where you'd pick 10 and get points for every year under 100 they are when they pop their cloggs.

Ooh! I just couldn't bring myself to participate in this in any way shape or form.
I just couldn't imagine predicting, guessing or funking someone to die, nor can I see there being even the slightest pleasure or satisfaction in winning because someone has died.
I read the obits all the time, bit I cant read the page in that link. The way it's contributors congratulate themselves when someone passes on makes my skin crawl.
OK. As you were....

Have to say I agree with Tom and Flash on this. It's very sick and bad taste.
I'm really not sure I could live with myself if I were to profit from....
Ah f**k it. I'll have Zsa Zsa!!
