    I'm posting this super early to end the massacre that was 2016 as quickly as possible. Let's hope we don't hit double digits in the page count this year, eh?

    Post your predictions for the Grim Reaper's list this year. Stalwarts like Abe Vigoda and Zsa Zsa Gabor are gone, but Lindsay Logan is still kicking around. Godspeed, celebrities.

    I feel stripped and vulnerable without Vigoda to root for. It's too big in here for me, kids. I'm an Institution man now.

    First pick is Amanda Bynes. She just seems like an utterly hopeless case and she's due for another one of her "Things" soon.

    Gene Hackman. He's been retired for some time now, that's just a roll of the dice.

    Jan Michael Vincent. He will not think things through in a haze and have his torso amputated.

    Charlie Sheen. He already has AIDS so his imminent death is quite likely.

    John Travolta. So.much.crazy in there.

    Bam Margera

    William Shatner. He's in his 80s and has to run out of battery at some point.

    Mary Tyler Moore. She's 80.

    Demi Lovato.

    Thabo Mbeki. I had to include one South African and he has been a heavy drinker for decades - that's the only way to explain his AIDS denialist policies when he was State President.

    Tim Curry. He looked terrible in a photo from a few years' back. I really like his work so I hope this one doesn't happen.

    Vanessa Redgrave. Another in advanced age.

    Kirk Douglas. He's 100.
    Also Michael Douglas. Cancer sucks. Maybe they will go Reynolds-Fisher style. That would be depressing.
    Beverly Cleary. She's 100. Judy Blume is only 78, though.
    Billy Graham. He's 99.
    Betty White, sadly. Probably late in the year.
    Stan Lee, also sadly.
    Glenn Campbell. Alzheimer's sucks.
    For the ex-president card the facts say Jimmy Carter, but my gut says no, so let's go with George Herbert Walker Bush.
    Jerry Lewis (Dude looked bad, on some sort of steroid treatment, on Conan like when he was still on NBC)
    Shannen Doherty (Cancer)
    Tom Brokaw (Cancer, Trump)

    And, in honor of Carrie Fisher and George Carlin, celebrities with a former cocaine addiction that might catch up with them this year:
    Gary Busey (72)
    Stephen King (69)
    Steven Tyler (68)

    Longer shots to join the Carlin Club:
    Tim Allen (63)
    Dennis Quaid (62)

    Bam Margera and Steve-O (Steve-O relapses, does some stupid stunt like trying to catch a bullet with your teeth and they both die.)

    Rhonda Rousey (OD on prescription pain killers; this sparks a debate about not prohibiting marijuana in sports and furthers the legalizing it debate)

    Bob Dylan (there will be at least one song written about his death by a major artist)

    Blake Shelton (alcohol poisoning)

    Hilary Clinton (no politics, I just am wary of her health and wary of the headlines)

    Phil Jackson

    Whelp, we made it through the first day of 2017 with no major deaths. This year is already looking up!

    Donald Trump pulls a William Henry Harrison and bloviates during his inauguration for hours in the chill Washington DC air, eventually catching syphilis and dying from it.

    - The shoenice. I'll probably forget about him until the 'professional youtube idiot drinks himself to death' headline pops up.
    - George H.W. Bush.
    - Clint Eastwood. Although I really hope not.
    - Kirk Douglas.
    - Donald Keefer.
    - Betty White.
    - Charlie Sheen. It might not be this year, but I doubt he's around to be a senior citizen.
    - Loretta Lynn.
    - Lindsay Lohan. Suicide or drug OD.
    - Tila Tequila. I don't know how she'll go, but she just has "I'll find a way" written all over her.
    - Justin Bieber. He's enough of a dip shit to off himself drunk driving, get himself shot by a cop, or pass on via some fucktarded stunt.
    - Britney Spears.
    - Richard Dawkins. He's not that old yet, but last I heard he was in terrible health.
    - Bill Cosby.

    The younger ones are a long shot, but given the combined insanity I like the chances of one of them pulling through.

    He just got off murder charges a few weeks back, apperantly due to health reason.
