Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Yes. I woke up feeling self-pity over my own decadent life but when I saw this story I felt better.

I don't know what's scarier, that he snorted his father's ashes or that picture of him.

Sounds like Richards is auditioning for the next Hannibal movie after his success in Pirates of the Caribbean 3:

"I snorted his ashes with some blow and a nice chianti"

he's playing Jonny Depp's father in the new Pirates. apparently Captain Sparrow's character is based on him, how he talks (with hands and all), walks, looks etc.

looking at this picture i think you can see that.

I had to double check that it wasn't a leftover April Fools article.

Two things will survive the apocalypse: cockroaches and Keith Richards.

I'm with you, dreamer. I mean, who doesn't have that normal urge to grind their parents up and mix them with a little blow?

Wow, Keith Richards. Wow.

I'm really loving his pedophile mustache, too. Great mo, Keith, great mo.

why does he have a bolt coming out of his head? He's my frankenstein! Oh wait, that's Alice.

Also, does he still do drugs?

I heard that he stopped doing drugs because "they don't make them as potent as they used to". Well, I'm guessing that once you've snorted your dad, nothing's going to compare.

    I think its fairly obvious that he's still in costume for Pirates 3. With the Pirate headband and the Jack Sparrow Eye liner.

    Considering his dad died only years ago, I find it doubtful that he ever stopped using drugs.

        I have many different visions of how I would like to be remembered, but, admittedly, being inhaled/snorted/otherwise-ingested is not one of them.

        This is the perfect way for two people to be together. I have for the longest time wanted Obleo inside of me, and if he died, this would be the perfect way. Everybody would win! Now, where's my lighter...

        The article says Keef's dad died in 2002 but it doesn't say how old he was. Based on this picture of Keef - I'm guessing 300?
