Paul Alcock, Premier League referee.

He’s probably best remembered for this encounter with fascist arsehole Paolo Di Canio.

Man, he’s been one of my favorite villain types. He was great in Lights Out.

I loved him on House of Cards, too. Excellent actor.

Not sure I personally miss him, but he was a huge influence on the world.

There's nothing wrong with you if you have trouble swallowing elegies for people who spent their lives demonizing you. There's something wrong with a culture that expects you to elegize them.

He’s finally gone, huh?

Here’s hoping Pat Robertson is next.

Real talk.

He’ll be in a glass coffin inside the Trump Tower lobby.
He will be protected by a detachment of the elite Trump Youth.
So dancing is out of the question. But if you kiss him he will return to life.
