However, kudos to subby. Typical reaction when I hear news like this... "hear it.. really? lemme load fark and see the newsflash. tee hee".

No more Noo Yee Wokkin Eeb :(

/Make jokes about people dying the second they die with a greenlit headline: Top voting
//Make jokes about a gunman near a school campus: vacation
//And I had the Kevorkian Newsflash green which was also a joke, so whatever, i condone it. Stay out of serious threads like college people being scared... but have a blast in dead celebrity threads!

Wrong Dick

=====================

Yes, wrong Dick, I was ready to start celebrating!

/I would have been happy enough to travel 50 miles to piss on my step father's grave again

Mike Wallace from CBS, Dick Clark from ABC...

...who's NBC gonna give up?

Bonanza Jellybean: Awww, I was so hoping would be Cheney.

That was my first guess.

Guidette Frankentits: Headline sucks.

It references a pop culture gag that has no relevance to the pop-culture surrounding the deceased.

Imagine it is 1996 and Jimmy The Greek dies. If the headline was done in the style this one was done in, it would read "Jimmy The Greek does his last Macarena"

And on top of that, everyone will be shiatting themselves and proclaiming HEADLINE OF THE YEAR when it's greenlit again for Dick Cheney.

Guidette Frankentits		2012-04-18 04:45:00 PM

Headline is as relevant to Dick Clark as "Where's the beef"

Looks like hologram Dick Clark will host the New Years Special in Times Square this year.

RedPhoenix122		2012-04-18 04:45:22 PM

I was hoping this was referring to Cheney, not Clark...dammit.

No one. NBC itself is going to die.

Cymbal		2012-04-18 04:46:09 PM

Better headline:

Dick's balls drop for final time.

WilliamLeeTwitch		2012-04-18 04:46:38 PM

FirstNationalBastard: And on top of that, everyone will be shiatting themselves and proclaiming HEADLINE OF THE YEAR when it's greenlit again for Dick Cheney.

It's a stretch but it would be more relevant to Cheney than Clark because Cheney is a dick (phallus) and putting a dick (phallus) in a box would make sense.

Gyrfalcon		2012-04-18 04:47:04 PM

Geologist: His ball finally dropped?

I cannot believe there wasn't a headline like: Dick's balls dropped.

Fark, I am dissappoint.

I am also very sad that a man who didn't age in 175 years finally died. RIP Dick Clark.

HAH, that would be HILARIOUS... and in the vain of Fark.

Yup. Still, great headline.

Dick Clark's death is the final part of the ritual. With his passing the acolyte known as Seacrest is now become immortal. His endless reign of terror will be humanity's eternal punishment for their hubris. Iä! Iä! The Sea Crested One Arises! All shall love him and despair!!!

mcmnky		2012-04-18 04:53:18 PM

Lets not lose sight of the real tragedy--we lost the hot judge from the zimmerman trial.

vegaswench		2012-04-18 04:53:40 PM

Lorelle: BOO. The $100,000 Pyramid headline is much, MUCH better.

/gives this one a -75

Yeah, that one was good, but what can ya do.

RIP Mr. Clark

MurphyMurphy: Down side, Dick is dead (RIP)

Up side, I get to watch the NY ball drop this year without feeling awkward.

I thought he was going to get one last shot at the ball drop post-stroke, but then he came back again, and again... Like a New Year's Zombie Apocalypse.

I was reading an interview with Keith Richards. In the interview, Keith Richards intimated that kids...should not use drugs.

Keith we can't do any drugs because you already f*ckin' did them all! We have to wait until you die and then smoke your ashes!

Hey, who didn't like starting out the new year with a grim reminder that our bodies will inevitably betray us on our slow march toward the grave while watching the ball drop?
