I’m probably not a good parent, but I had to play that for my kids… “Sometimes, kids, this is the only response to somebody that has no grasp on reality.”
I don’t think anyone expected to see Thicke take the dirtbath. No one expects Trump to keel over one day soon, either.
Here are my picks for 2017:

Bryan Murray
George H.W. Bush

He is one of my favorite actors. He’s done some amazing roles, in fantastic films. He was nominated for Best Actor, for his role in The Elephant Man.
And you know what? When he dies, one of the first things his obituary is going to mention is his role in Alien.:(:mad:
That’s 14… (putting into updated scorekeeper, not list-checking/pilfering)
Things ain’t going well…thanks!

Nowadays, it’s more likely they’ll lead with the fact he had a minor role in the Harry Potter series.
Maybe both, but I’ll make a bet that Alien will come first.
