It's a message board game! yay!

Based on Today's [goats.com] strip, here's the game.

A dead celebrity is mentioned by name. The next person then provides their current occupation, and a new celebrity.

Lather, rinse, repeat! Fun Fun Fun!

I'll start.

Jessica Tandy.

Jessica Tandy is currently a circus geek, squatting in a cage, biting the heads off chickens, and shouting, "ARRghghraraARAHAAAGH" at passersby.

Clark Gable is now a pomade-infused hairdresser with an eyepatch. He tells people it was the result of a tragic scissor incident, but actually he just has pinkeye.

Pick one:

1. You were trying to make a joke.
2. You were thinking of Lloyd Bridges.
3. You missed the point of the thread.
4. You inhabit the same bizarro world as my erstwhile room-mate, who actually spent three hours trying to convince me Kirk Douglas had been dead since June, despite his appearance at a golf tournament in October.

Well Jeff Bridges isn't DEAD but...

Jeff Bridges delivers fuel oil in my neighborhood. Yesterday he filled my tank to the tune of $385. I wanted to kick his ass for gouging me but instead gave him a thermos full of hot chocolate because of the extreme cold.
