Also, those 2 were really top notch people, so in the interest of balance, it would need to be a real shitbag…
If we go by the rule of 3’s we already hit 3, Hayden Panettiere was #1
also Yayoi Kusama. This was a bad week for culture and humanity in general.
Even if he died, they’d Mitch McConnell him.
“he’s dead, they just Mitched him.” is a fitting legacy for him.
Sorry but I think Hayden Panettiere was the first of this round of 3
What a fucked up way for me to find out…that Hayden Panettiere was actually 80 😛
Seriously, though, this one caught me by surprise for sure!
She was only 36 and, from what little I’d seen of her, she appeared exceptionally wholesome, healthy, and happy as far as I could tell. Reading her Wikipedia after the fact, it turns out I couldn’t be much more wrong ☹️
Again, I’m not sure what has you all convinced that the rule of three for celebrity deaths has anything to do with age - it’s just about celebrity.
At any rate, yes Hayden’s death was particularly surprising - but these things happen. Life is a fleeting thing.

I wasn’t agreeing to that (highly specious) hypothesis, just found it funny to pretend that anyone could have mistaken Panettiere for an octogenarian 😁

Correct.
Too far of a gap to include HP. Now I’m suddenly worried about Mel Brooks
He’s a symptom, not the disease.
I want to see him and his corrupt family rotting the rest of their lives in a prison.
I’d rather see him in prison than dead. But what I want more than anything is for him to be out of power as soon as possible, and a sudden death from natural causes would be the fastest, easiest way out for us at this point.
I have rapist, felon, pedophile, and traitor still left on my Bingo card.
And they’re all in the same square.
I’ve got a nice bottle of champagne I’m really looking forward to popping open…
She was 97 rather than 80, but we lost another gem in Yayoi Kusama this week.

And Peter Cullen (Voice of Optimus Prime) today

FUCK
Turns out it was the optimus prime guy
Aka eeyore
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Figured that one out all by yourself, did you?
do you assume that everyone wants to look up people’s birthyear dates or do you just assume that everyone has encyclopedic knowledge of them? Sometimes, it’s just convenient to see the answer to the question you’re thinking in the comments without having to go looking it up.
But go off trying to sound smug and smart. You’re very very cool and everyone thinks you’re super witty.
Just checking a list of notable people born in 1946 …
George W Bush and Bill Clinton were both born in '46.
Holy shit! Timothy Dalton is 80! When did that happen?!
Hmm … better not be Stallone. He promised us another season of Tulsa King.
Aw, who am I kidding? I want it to be everyone’s favourite orange cockbag as much as anyone! Thank you for your attention to this matter!
stevie nicks was born in 48. she was my fearful and tearful guess for next.
I know which famous 80 year old I’m rooting for…
… fuck. Elon Musk was only born in 1971.
My mom. 😕
Sad
Man, you all really want Cher to die, huh? Messed up…
