Death by airborne sausage....

[Blue Jam]

They're going to have to play some of his (great) compositions at the funeral, aren't they?

[thecuriousorange]

Colin "colon" Powell has died.

[paruses]

They're going to have to play some of his (great) compositions at the funeral, aren't they?

Lots of people make the (rubbish) joke about having the Countdown music played at their funeral or something wacky but Chicken Man would really lift my spirits or if I were the dead one I hope it would lift others'.

[oy vey]

Colin "colon" Powell has died.

He threw in the Towell due to Covid complications despite being vaxxed. So looking forward to the antivaxxers to use him as a poster boy. Yeah can't wait

[mothman]

He already was their poster child. A nonthreatening, compliant, complicit black man they could hold up and say, "Look, we're not racist, see? We love General Powell! We think he should have been President! Only not really, we wouldn't have voted for him, there are limits."

[dissolute ocelot]

Leslie Bricuuuughhhhh! The songwriter known for "Willy Wonka" And The Chocolate Factory, Bond themes including Goldfiiiiiiinger, and collaborations with Anthony Newley, has kicked the (Charlie) bucket aged 90.

You won't believe how this one weird tip for avoiding death thread punning titles based on your name was discovered by Mort Sahl. Verbwhores hate him.

Former Blue Peter presenter Christopher Wenner died last week.
Lasted only a couple of years on the show, and probably best remembered for feeding Simon Groom the infamous "what a beautiful pair of knockers" line.

Changed his name to Max Stahl and became an award-winning war reporter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Wenner

[Fr.Bigley]

Blair used to carry a silver dollar in his pocket, supposedly gift from Sammy Davis Jr, for luck. I think he did it because he loved his hand graced by silver (cocks).

[Phoenix Lazarus]

I'm calling Rolf Harris and the Queen for either next year or maybe even this.

[Alberon]

What? In a suicide pact?

[Fr.Bigley]

I'm calling Rolf Harris and the Queen for either next year or maybe even this.

I bet you don't even have their number, liar.

[kalowski]

What? In a suicide pact?

Maybe Rolf arrived at the palace with a suicide vest strapped to him. Boris refuses to meet his terms and he takes out the Queen, two corgis and a house maid.

[buttgammon]

I'm sure he knows the family well knowing what the royals are like for harbouring sex offenders.
