We here at Celebrity Death Text would like to apologize for our long absence. It seems that our other responsibilities got the better of us for a few months there. And yet, celebrities kept dying - and you kept sending us those great texts - so it now time to update the site.
We'll start with a few old ones:
Simply too many puns received to award any points.
Honorable mention: "That asshole is dead." - Josh Nelson
Same here.
A number of duplicative texts about atheism and what God might say to him.
We did receive a few good ones, mostly with puns about trains, but even we at Celebrity Death Text aren't quite comfortable with an intersection of schadenfreude and suicide.
