2015 and 2016 have been shitty when it comes to celebrity deaths. And I'm not talking about irrelevant "celebrities" that need air-quotes. I'm talking about influential figures.

This thread is a remembrance to them all.

I raise a glass to: Lemmy Kilmister, Terry Pratchett, Christopher Lee and David Bowie.

Who will you raise your glass to?

I`ll raise it to Prince.
Oh, and to Spock, of course!
Oh, and I nearly forgot Alan Rickman.Cheers!

Angus Scrimm, The Tall Man. May he forever lurk in the dark corners of our rooms, minds and hearts. ♥

Hear hear!
And.
Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!

I tend to take a more realist approach to this.
People are born, they live, and then they die.
It's life and happens to all of us.

It wouldn't worry me if less competent people died and more competent people were born. Alas, it's the other way around. :P

Well, you never know. Halfway around the world, the inventor for the cure for cancer might have been born while right outside of there a potential mass-murderer just got run over by a truck. Seems like whatever is going to happen is just going to happen. Sit back and watch the world burn...
