  1. I tried to find some Black Music that Mattered,
    but I got bored bored.
    I'm gonna play some white music that mattered.


    Sure I'm a nerd, and likely a dangerous male
    I really should quit Twitter.

    And yet I am becoming educated.
    Slightly woke.

  2. Ah yes.


  3. [censored] nerd,


    CNUT.

  4. [censored] it I'm going old school Aussie.
    It'd be a shame if he dies.

  6. Olivia de Havilland is a DP collect for roshea. Well done!
    This must be one of the TANs best years for dead pool success I reckon.

  7. Hopefully we don't slump for the rest of the year.

    I reckon we'll be fine.
    If we look after ourselves.

  9. And others too ffs.
    We're not Trumpians, I hope.

  11. Good onya lads.

  12. TAN Dead Pool 2020
    Matagi - Kirk Douglas, Phil the Greek
    classic1 - Sean Connery, Valerie Giscard d'Estaing, Rupert [censored] Murdoch
    paul - Henry Kissinger, Willie Nelson, Sterling Moss.
    Wilchemy -
    Jimmy Carter, Vera Lynn, Clint Eastwood
    62vette - Rolf Harris, Pierre Cardin, Betty White
    roshea - Olivia de Havilland, Allan Peiper, Leon Spinks

    It's a now a four-way battle. Never had a four-way before.

    Good to see the ‘pick a 100yo’ tactic working well.

    I humbly propose that in the event of a tie, the award be given to the contestant whose dead pool pick is youngest. In the event of a tie with multiple dead pool selections, the winner is the contestant whose Dead pool picks have the lowest combined age.This unfortunately means Wilchemy and Ma are [censored] if there is a tie, so tough [censored].

    These tie breakers are important just in case we get a big multinational sponsor and need to award prizes. I’ve got a few irons in the fire but suspect the multinationals haven’t responded to the emails I sent back in February due to the fires and Covid. Otherwise, you will receive a beautifully crafted certificate from classic1 creative studios, done on Microsoft paint like Paulie got once when I remembered.

    I reckon if Kissinger or Murdoch cark it there could be a popular choice award.

  13. What. The. [censored].

  14. As an aside I won the the first TAN deadpool, with Steve Jobs, and I felt kinda ashamed. I never played the game again.
    Not because Steve Jobs or Apple deserve any respect at all, but just because I'm a [censored].

    I'd love a Deal Pool Certificate. I do have have a knack for cnuts on their arses, or deathbeds, as needs must.


  15. Oh and I'm not joking.
    I went to a funeral for an exbandmate recently.
    He died from heroin. It's a real shame.
    We thought he'd kicked that years ago, but we were wrong.

    A lot of family and friends are mourning their loss. It's a shame.
    We should have been better friends.

  16. But at least we weren't stupid enough to overdose.
    Or even partake.
    Goodbye Christian, you [censored].
