People ask me sometimes "what song do you want to hear?" And I say 'Are You Lonesome Tonight' Sam Kinison version specifically. "Sam Kinison? I'm not familiar with him." ... [in my Yoda voice] "Gooood. You will be. You will be."

The Deaths Of Marty McFly:
Theories miss everything of importance.
yo man I've been seeing “theories” that Marty McFly died twice in Back To The Future Part II. So I've put together a short review of all the deaths in the trilogy. The theory that Marty died by suicide off Biff's rooftop casino in 1985-A or being hit by Biff at the tunnel in 1955 doesn't make sense. Doc was showing up at the casino rooftop for a rendezvous anyway and at the tunnel he was waiting for Marty. I'd have to find my novel, but Marty's death by those means was not mentioned, so it's not a thing to where Doc would travel back in time to correct those incidents.
NOTE: Every character death is undone by the end of the series.
Back to the Future I
Doc is killed by Libyan terrorists; prevents his death by wearing a bullet proof vest
Back to the Future II
George McFly is killed by Biff Tannen in an alternate timeline; revived due to correcting events
Biff Tannen dies after returning to the future 2015, but it's a combination heart attack and fade from existence; is revived in the timeline correction (presumtively)
Doc Brown is killed by Buford Tannen in 1885 (not revealed until Part III and would be presumed dead anyway due to 70 year difference)
Back to the Future III
Clara Clayton originally killed when horse wagon rolls off cliff into Shonash ravine; Doc Brown's prevents this and she lives
Doc Brown killed by Buford Tannen; revived when Marty arrives
Marty McFly is killed by Buford Tannen due to his arrival and interactions with; revived by his own idea: bullet proof vest, just like Doc in Part I.
These are all the deaths depicted in the trilogy. Because it's a time travel story spanning 130 years we can assume people die over time for various reasons. However, the principal characters listed above were killed either by another person or by an extraordinary event (Clara and Biff). Doc experiences two deaths, everyone else one. The only character we see die a hard death is Doc at the beginning of Part I. Biff's death in the middle of Part II is unusual: heart attack and simultaneous fade out. It might not have even been a heart attack, but the results of fading from existence and his advanced age may have complicated things. Marty's partial fade out at the dance in Part I was depicted as somewhat painful, but being 17 he was much more durable.
Questionable deaths: Marty's brother and sister, fading from the photo, were those deaths at all since they were not born? Biff's death scene, he changed his own life which is speculated resulted in an early death. He shouldn't have died the 1985-A on the rooftop after being struck by the DeLoreon door. Even if that caused a concussion that may have lead to an earlier death than normal, his lifestyle led him to die before the age of 78 before 2015, thus his fade out in 2015.
Why don't grocery stores sell comic books anymore?
yo man I was wondering about this yesterday. Used to be comic books where sold next to the other books and magazines, sometimes on the rotary rack, all for $1 or less. Punisher, Spiderman, Batman, and then some of the other lesson known ones. Simpsons comics used be a thing. So, doing an internet search, there's no official reason, but some chat rooms and blogs suggest it's not cost effective. The comics take up too much space and they don't sell well. The only comics you might find in a few places are Disney type geared for the 3-5 year old market. I could go to Barnes & Noble to get one of those anthology comic books, those mega volumes, but that's not what I want. I want a cheap, dozen or so pages, comic book, to read while I'm sitting at the auto mechanic or doctor's office or waiting for the cop to write me another speeding ticket, y'know? Comics on my smart phone are too small and I have to zoom in too much and I have to keep tapping to keep the phone on. I've tried comics on the Kindle app, but the same issue, I have to zoom in to one panel at a time to be able to read it. I think my nearest city has one comic book store, but they change locations like every 3 months and they always pick the worst part of town to set up shop (the rent is too high and the gang activity too heavy, always the same excuses). But I'm not spending $30 on collector editions, I just want cheap, pulp comics. Even the half price book stores are short on comic books. One had pulp science fiction booklets, but some collector came in and bought the whole lot. Print isn't completely dead, but the good stuff is not there. Is it an inflation thing, or is it a lack of interest thing?

Yeah, so, WW3, that's a thing now. Better get my butt back to the rifle range tomorrow and finish zeroing my optics. Also, is it rabbit season or duck season?
If Star Wars had been a TV show.
