El Chup appears to have passed away

2013 - it's still near the top of the Wordforge Memorial subforum in the Green Room.

2013, actually.

Are you often in the position of having to deny things that 13-year olds have said about you?

I'll bet Dayton is!

You might want to see a doctor.

You’ve posted in the first page of Sokar’s memorial thread.

Clearly, @oldfella1962 was very close to @Sokar.

quite literally - I think he lived down the road from me.

If you see him, ask him why he doesn't post anymore.

Jeez... I just looked at that thread for the first time since it was originally posted.

@Tamar Garish comes off as quite a prig.

I'm sure she's down there with @Sokar and @El Chup, arguing over some stupid thing.

Anyone else think it's weird that you can tag deceased posters?

If anything, they're easier to tag now they've stopped moving.

I just might be able to see him (sort of) because his ghostly presence might be in my house! Let me preach on it:
I think a mischievous ghost is fucking with me. About a week ago I lost a thumb drive full of music. The drive is only two places - my Jetta or in my house by my computer when I am loading new music on it. Where did it go? Then right after I get my frayed & worn Gold's Gym membership bar code key ring deal replaced (free since I didn't lose it, it was just getting worn out) I fucking lose it! Now I have to pay for a new one. Again, it's always on my key ring - where did it go? All the keys were still on the ring! And then there's a door to a big cabinet (kind of like a wardrobe) in my spare bedroom that is sometimes open but the door to the bedroom is closed all the time so my cats aren't going in the cabinet to explore or sleep. So how is the cabinet being opened?

Better call Black Glove.

Michael Jackson? Wait...... he was Silver Glove if I remember right.

Funeral was today. I've been unable to find an online obituary, though.

I've scoured every paper I could all throughout the UK, trying different search parameters, and coming up with nothing.

Nothing further reported on his Facebook timeline?

Just condolences from some of his friends.

Anyone feel comfortable reaching out to one of them to inquire?

Inquire about what?

How he died, what happened.

They seem to be rather tight lipped on that whole issue, so it may be something they'd rather not share. There's talk of the date of his passing, and the funeral, as well as well wishes and such for friends, but no word at all on cause. No obituary, either. It's none of our business, really, and I understand wanting to know, but I get the feeling we're not meant to know on this one. Just my two bits, though.

Yeah. From what has been said and the charity donations page set up in his memory I think we can read between the lines.

Did I miss that? Which charity page?

cut to the chase here.......bizarre gardening accident? Long walk on a short pier? Tugged on Superman's cape?

Thank you for your generous donation paladin.

Damn.

Autoerotic asphyxiation?

that's what happened to David Carradine & that guy from INXS. Anywho I saw the charity page was about mental health - was that a factor? I can relate, my wife has serious problems that come and go. Luckily I have a mind like the Rock of Gibraltar!
