What with all the talk about the tenth anniversary of K. Cobain's death, I'm reminded that sometimes if you're famous and you die you get a preface to your name. "Late Nirvana frontman" Kurt Cobain. "Slain civil rights leader" Martin Luther King. "Former Ugandan dictator" Idi Amin. "Sir" Peter Ustinov. I thought it might help journalists if I gave them a few ideas in the unlikely event that I become famous before I die. Below please find some suggestions:
Fast-living slow guy
Snappy dresser
Legendary Masturbator
Pioneering non-sequitist
Flatulant bon-vivant
Formerly punctual, now late
Oft-naked somnambulist
Seminal Seminole
Cheerful nihilist
Former homosexual
Slim, slow slider
naughty fatalist
philandering philanthropist
Television's beloved late-nite talk show monologue guy
Penultimate Tattoo non-haver
Nipple enthusiast
"Crappy blogger who otherwise rose only to mediocre in every other category."
