Title: MORT.
Post by: Tonker on March 12, 2015, 11:00:21 AM
Terry Pratchett, dead at 66 of Alzheimers. (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/terry-pratchett-dead-discworld-author-dead-after-struggle-with-alzheimers-10104157.html)  I'm not even going to make a joke about this one: I'm genuinely gutted that there won't be any more books.

Damn, I knew what this was as soon as I saw the title.

My only quibble with the thread title is that it should have been in all caps.

I actually thought it was Morts (aka Morph) and thought he had killed himself out of frustration from social media self-denial.

"DON'T THINK OF IT AS DYING," said Death. "JUST THINK OF IT AS LEAVING EARLY TO AVOID THE RUSH."

No, Morph will be "You thought he was addicted to social media! You'll never guess what happened next!" or something like that
