Heriditary Stalinist Dictator and world's best golfer

Bowled a perfect 300 game first time he did ten-pin-bowling? Impressive.

I also hear he flashed the Ace above a rollmat after cycling in to stanage at 4am have never ridden a bike or been climbing before. He then drove to blackrocks and one of his many wifes held his ropes while he flashed harder faster. Si O' took photos.

Look Mr Logic there's a big difference between me making a Team America joke and someone not knowing who the fuck he is.

As a foot note, Si O' then spent 10 yrs in a NK jail on espionage charges before being swapped for a Snickers bar, two diplomats and a ticket for Lady GaGa at Earls Court.

Shame that this thread has been sullied with any mention of his name.  If there is a hell I hope he's currently experiencing the full horror of it from now until eternity alongside the other recent joiners (Sadam, Qadaffi, Bin Laden, Caeusescu, Milosevic.... )

Yes - the parody makes light of his true evil. Rot In Hell is far more appropriate than Rest In Peace.
c.3 million people starved to death. That (in sheer numbers) ranks him way above all of those FD listed. I dont know if anyone caught the rare footage on C4 news of the stick thin girl collecting grass to eat... unbelievable..

And of course China has been complicit by consent in much of this - returning 'escapees' supply of weapons etc.. I suppose the regimes trump card has always been nuclear weapons that they've had in some form or another since the 60's...

R.I.P Sarah Burke.

She virtually single handedly pushed forward standards and recognition of women's freestyle skiing, tragically dies training for the half pipe which she'd successfully lobbied to get into the next Olympics. 4 X-Games golds and a fantastic skier to watch.

Can't find the Happy Happy segment so Seven Sunny Days will have to do:



Depressingly, out of Seven Sunny Days, Shane McConkey, CR Johnson and now Sarah Burke are no longer with us.

RIP indeed. Something must have gone disasterously wrong, as she really knows her stuff.

Yep, pretty horrific (vertebral artery rupture causing lack of blood to the brain). I kind of regarded free-style as scary, but not dangerous. You might break a leg, which is rubbish, but you wouldn’t die like you might skiing big lines. Looks like I was well off the mark.

It’s the same super pipe that Kevin Pearce broke his back on, bad karma. If I was a pro, I’d not be using that pipe.

For anyone who doesn't realise what we lost today, have a run through this. Almost Persuaded is joplinesque in parts (though I suppose that really joplin was jamesesque)

Anyway, RIP.

I loved that programme as a kid...
And was subjected to "Sleepy Jean" every morning of three months basic training...
