I know this thread is supposed to comedic but it's also really macabre. Do we really need to have it around? I hate the idea of this sort of death clock thread. Unless it is for Ian Watkins who is deserving of such a horrid end.

we need something to discuss whilst they are being lazy and not putting a new album out, i suppose.

Note to FD Legal Team: This thread in no way calls for the killing of a member of any three piece Welsh rock band.
First thing in the thread! Besides, you never had a "Will Ringo outlive McCartney" discussion with friends? I have! And they've still kept me as a friend.

I think you'd have to be trying pretty hard to find this thread offensive.

Welcome to the internet. Sense of humour optional.

Given some of the things the band have said over the years, this is quite tame

yes, it could have been "which secretly gay pop star will Nicky next out and hopes die of AIDS?"

if people are offended by this one, well, no one should abuse you, but it should be stressed there are many other threads on this forum. also, remember the wise words of John Cleese - "nobody has the right never to be offended".

this all for some reason kind of reminds me of a time at work where one of the guys asked us if we thought that "[Mike] Tyson fucked anyone in prison". we said we were not sure, and he should ask our boss, the General Manager. sadly he didn't quite pick up on the sarcasm and did indeed ask him. at a strategy session thing, attended by 100+ people, when he unwisely asked "are there any questions", expecting any such questions to be related to the topic on hand.

in fairness our GM said he would not like to be on the wrong side of anyone in prison who fucked Tyson, which is an astute observation.

PS, Aaron, love, DO NOT start a thread about the Nicky thing, chap.

I read this as "do not start a thread about Nicky's chap". I was wondering what Nicky's penis had to do with it, and that would probably be a very popular thread....

I'm most disturbed by James getting the highest number of votes to go first!

That and nicotine. And alcohol.

In fact, it's more astonishing for people NOT to vote James.

i always assumed they just stored him and brought him to stage in a way not unlike they do Screaming Lord Byron in Bowie's Jazzin For Blue Jean video
