GYERO ARCHIVE

[_Chase_]

It may have been exceptionally bad compared to previous years, but it will continue to get much, much worse. The standard for "icon" is really low these days.

Just wait until "we lose" Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney, Sean Connery, Chevy Chase, Dolly Parton, Jessica Lange, Judi Dench, and Jimmy Smits in 2017.

There are hundreds of famous people set to die over the next couple decades. And at the time of their death, everyone is elevated at least one level of fame because OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE BJORK IS DEAD!

So just get ready in 2017 to start hearing WHY ARE ALL THE CELEBRITIES DYING IS IT LIKE THE BEES SITUATION WILL THE WORLD END CLICK HERE TO FIND OUT WHAT THESE SCIENTISTS ARE SAYING.

With all due respect, Chase, when *you* die, I hope it's in a fire.

I don't know why I ever started following JenNime on twitter, but the GYERO hatred has spread and is now the reason I don't unfollow.

Anyway she already has 2 additional tweets that mention Carrie Fisher and her interview with her.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

One day, the world will mourn when "icons" like Kim Kardashian and Some Random Ass Youtube "Star" pass away. I hope I'm dead by then.

I'm almost looking forward to Bruce Springsteen's death just to see the reaction from all the middle-aged white sportswriters calling him the most important historical figure since Jesus.

Bob Dylan won a Nobel Peace Prize. Can someone please explain why? I don't really follow these things.

 

[CoolCat45]

Bob Dylan won a Nobel Peace Prize.

False.

 

[_Chase_]

I don't really follow these things.

Clearly.

 

[B Rax]

Dont you guys read twitter? Celebrities aren't going to die in 2017. It's just crazy ass 2016! This year is the worst ugh!!! Come on 2017 THE YEAR OF CELEBRITY IMMORTALITY

 

[BernieSadori]

Carrie Fischer is now more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

Where were you when Pew Die Pie died??????

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

"Kim Kardashian broke onto the scene when her mother leaked a video tape of her getting plowed by the brother of a 90s R&B star. From there, it was a meteoric rise to the top for some reason."

Anth....

1) She has given us PLENTY of material and is ridiculously obnoxious, even by GYERO standards.

2) Don't get mad because she's now part of the Super Elite VIP UK Athletics Crew.

 

[anthonys735]

I get it, but this year was exceptionally bad. We lost some GD icons this year- Prince, Bowie, Glenn Frey, Arnold Palmer, Gordie Howe, George Michael, Carrie Fisher, John Glenn, Leonard Cohen, Nancy Reagan, Merle Haggard, Pat Summitt, Gene Wilder.

...and you care so much you left the biggest name off. IIRC you even visited his childhood home.

1. True.
2. I have actual experiences that justify disliking her and my feeling have been stated numerous times.

Just don't water it down, is more what I was saying.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

Is it bad that my, and others, reaction to hearing about Carrie Fischer's death was to see if they had wrapped filming Episode VIII?

Considering how much you Star Wars nerds routinely embarass yourselves, this is just a drop in the bucket.

 

[Mashburned]

Alf is dead??!

 

[anthonys735]

Alf is dead??!

Swear I thought the same thing. He was just in Mr. Robot.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

Alf is dead??!

A suicide, apparently. He left this note - "Ha! I kill me!"

 

[Mashburned]

Alf is in Mr Robot??!!

2016 wild af.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

Alf is a puppet, idiots

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

Alf is a puppet, idiots

No different than most of us, really.

 

[B Rax]

Alf didn't die - he was voiced by Prince - a lot of people didn't know that. Prince died. Alf was a muppet

Well, did they?

The Palumbo's are no longer "shitheads", Rich. Get with it.

Hitting up the craps table and buying some Prada together goes a long way to healing wounds!

Alf's acting is one thing that overshadowed Prince and some say that's ultimately what killed Prince. All he ever wanted was to be recognized for being Alf's voice. Sad.

I mean, if they'd invite the Schems over for some Cal time, I'm sure they'd be besties.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

COME ON DORN - GET IN FRONT OF THE DAMN BALL! DON'T GIVE ME THIS OLE' BULLSHIT!

Given it some thought and Major League is probably my favorite movie of all time. Still incredibly quotable and that final game against the Yankees just gets it when it comes to drama.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

Well, did they?

Yes.

Episode IX tho'...

 

[wildcat1973]

I know it's cheezy as all get out with the lights exploding (SPOILER!!!), but Roy Hobbs' final AB in The Natural is .

Might have to watch it again tonight. So good.

 

[anthonys735]

Natural and Major League are cornerstones in my childhood development. Real bonding stuff for father/son. Speaking of, bought Big A a sweet Rawlings glove with "PaPop" embroidered on the thumb. It's gorgeous.

If we want a 1 or 2 we need to win all those, maybe UT gets us?. The only two we could drop is OM or UT and I don't see us losing the OM after last week and we damn sure aren't losing at home again.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Dunno, but the Wildcatchads scheduled their engagement party during the South Carolina game -- which is so fitting it's hard to put into words.

Someone text me the score, I guess.

 

[GrandePdre]

In fairness, it was between him and Chyna for one more spot. I couldn't decide so left them both off.

@Chase's billboard in Owensboro. Dude is going Heavy Hitter on GYERO.

Chinfuzz or nah?

Hey Chase, you need any help with the digital portion of your advertising? I can help.

Haven't been posting much and likely won't for a while, but felt I should share. Last Wednesday afternoon as I was headed home and possibly securing a ticket for the UofL game, my Dad called and let me know that they're going to stop chemo on my mom and let her go peacefully and as comfortably as possible at home with Hosparus. Weeks to months, but her oncologist recommended that we be thinking in terms of weeks.

So the good news is that I get to spend time with my mom as she passes away, but yea, it's devastating.

UK grad. Married for 45 years. 5 college educated sons. 4 grandchildren. Hundreds of friends. An exceptional woman and always a lady. I'm really going to miss her, and I can't fathom how this goes from here, much less life without her. A true matriarch.

My family prefers to not share much of anything on Facebook, so please don't post anything about it on there. Appreciate any private prayers for her.
