I figured I would start this before anyone creates a obituary thread with sob stories.

Oprah Winfrey Found Dead in Home

It's a joke. 4chan strikes again.

The grammatical errors (specifically "might of...committed suicide") would have given it away.

Yes, but she totally deserves the trolling for her epic failure earlier in the week. It was over 9000!

What was? Her weight? What was her epic fail?

I'd rather ask "What wasn't?"

Epic fail?

I don't recall anyone getting video of Oprah falling down a flight of stairs, burning off her face attempting to drink a flaming Dr. Pepper, or wiping out big time in a skateboard, snowboard or dirt bike accident.

Where the fuck is the fail? I really need to know! Did Dave Chappelle actually knock her up? Gotcha Bitch! Oh spray!

Her magazine is.

I heard a couple of years ago when she was reeeaaaly fat she got busted for having 40 pounds of crack in her dress... [uhoh]

Looks like Mike's claim on the "epic fail" is false, otherwise he would have noted what it was.

Her latest weight loss scheme?

Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 09-21-2008, 11:45 PM:

Maybe her failure has something to do with this:

The real question is "Do I really care?" and if so "Why?". I have no problem with her. I don't want her to be dead or anything. She's just not high on my priority list to keep up with. Sure she's done alot of nice things to help people out, along with a giftbasket under each chair at her shows. But so have alot of other people. Look at all of the kids Ronald McDonald's helped. [thumbsup]

::Ducks:: Ok, I was being silly with the Ronald McDonald part, but you get the drift.

Charles,

Perhaps you have not heard of the Ronald McDonald Houses. These are residences for the parents of children in the hospital. Located near the hospital, these houses provide a place for out of town parents to stay while their children are hospitalized. I think this is a very good cause as well as the Tim Horton's collections to send kids to camp.

All that crap is provided free by sponsors trying to get advertising. Same goes with all those Pontiacs she "gave away" a few years ago. It was an advertising scheme by Pontiac to promote their new car and all the people in the audience got stuck with a car they had to pay taxes for. I read somewhere that many of them sold the cars back to the dealership because they couldn't or didn't want to pay the several thousand in taxes. She didn't contribute a dime, she just loves to take credit.

I know. I was half joking. Figured I'd include something partially serious. The other part was that Ronald McDonaled isn't A) a single person, and B) a real person but a corporate character.

Randy, why was THAT video flagged for age? It was just Pedobear.

Posted by Randy Stankey (Member # 64) on 09-22-2008, 06:15 PM:

It wasn't flagged when I posted it.

Some wheezer must have complained. [Roll Eyes]
