I think we also need a counterpart - a thread for those whose death makes the world a slightly better place. For the sort of people about whom, when you hear they've died, you say things like "Finally," or "It's about time," or "If I wasn't an atheist I'd say burn in hell, motherfucker, but since I am I'll just have to accept that you're no longer a burden on the world."
A place to celebrate not a person's life, but the simple fact that they're fucking dead.
I'll start it off with one whose death was long overdue.

Manuel Antonio Noriega, the brash former dictator of Panama and sometime ally of the United States whose ties to drug trafficking led to his ouster in 1989 in what was then the largest American military action since the Vietnam War, has died. He was 83.
