Messy break-up with Norma Desmond
Wow! This is by far the most successful Thread I ever started! I got 99 responses once last year and was so bummed that it didn’t break 100, but this one far makes up for it!
I hope everyone is reading all the responses instead of just checking in at the end with their own response. This has been such a funny Thread, I just got to say thanks!
Here are some of my favorites so far:
Chefguy had a very funny post . . .
. . . but he kinda ruined it when he came back to explain it. Sorry, Chefguy, could’ve been my favorite but you robbed it of its effectiveness by over-explaining it.
And of course I hate to see a trilogy go incomplete . . .
(Sean Factotum, he jumped from the roof- not the window)
. . . so I’ll add:
Killed while being robbed by Joseph Green, Stanley Berry, and Daniel Hill.
Doing backflips without assistance
Least liked member of the Donner party.
. . . or, most-liked.
I figure that was after the fact.
Donner party members sitting around the campfire patting their bellies and belching, someone says “You know, old Jumbo wasn’t so bad after all” everyone nods in agreement and goes back for another helping.
Starved to death after entering a staring competition with a teddy bear.
Interesting to think how history might have been different if the fates of Hannibal (the original) and the Donner party had been reversed …
Burned to death while talking on his cell phone and filling the gas tank on his Mini Cooper.
Flashed his headlights at the wrong car.
