    I've been following the latest news on YouTube, and the stars are dropping left and right. Still waiting to see if Dakota Fanning is just dead on the inside, and not the outside.

    This is getting old already. Is every D-list celebrity on Earth going to have to put in a public appearance just to quell the nasty rumors of their demise? If it were me, I'd just stay "dead" until everybody in the world believed it, then I'd appear on the Today Show to sing my one hit from days gone by. That ought to rub their noses in it, and if not, I can always sic the lawyers on 'em.


    For a 70s style fad (reporting on the death of still-living D-listers), this one is pretty lame.

    I'm still wondering about Abe Vigoda and Steve Guttenburg. I didn't see them behind the board games the other day.

    Has anyone checked on Robert Palmer or Cyndi Lauper yet? I've been hearing awful things.

    @ChillbearLatrigue:

    uhhhhhm, robert palmer actually died in 2003 of a heart attack at age 54. he is no longer addicted to love. cyndi, however, still just wants to have fun, so there's that.

    I figure after the Time 100 text-roll by Astley of Moot, he's basically dead to most of 4chan already.

    I hope that her politics are more up-to-date than her jokes, though I appreciate her actually doing it.

    @The Curse of Millhaven: I know - so typical of the government to have found this "new thing called Rickrolling."


    I don't want to see the 2 girls 1 health care plan video they'll eventually put out.

    That cat made sure he got the marking of the gavel on tape, so the world will know: Gavel belongs to cat.

    The cats seem kind of nervous, as if they know they could join the raccoons at any moment.

    Before those cats were allowed into Pelosi's office, I hope they were thoroughly vetted.
