Re: How would you like to die?

1) Some sort of heroic death. Dying to save the lives of others. (but still hoping that I die of old age in my sleep)

2) Entering a situation where I knew I'd die but I'd be saving lives. tongue

Re: How would you like to die?

I want to die fighting.

If suicide I would want to be hung from a tree and stabbed through with a spear.  Not sure if it's still suicide if you have assistance though.

Re: How would you like to die?

My choice of death is to be shot by the coed's jealous boyfriend after we've been caught in flagrant delicto in her bed, on my 97th birthday.

On the other end of the scale, the last thing I'd ever want to be written on my death certificate would be;

Cause of death: autopsy.


when surrounded and left on Afghanistan's plains,
and the women come out to cut up what remains,
just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains,
and go to your god like a soldier...

Re: How would you like to die?

If It were to be an accident that I had no control over (not willingly dying), it would have to be
- Screaming down a mountian somewhere in Europe at 95+kmh and slamming into a wall, or just going over the side because my brakes would have been somehow damaged or something like that, or it was in a storm.

- Dying in a helicopter crash.


Otherwise...

Re: How would you like to die?

1) After 8000 years, the cannister housing my cryonically preserved body in a vault deep beneath the Florida tundra is accidentally defrosted when a drunken teen-age caretaker presses the wrong button while trying to get to the "good part" in a porno hologram.

2) Poison pizza.

Re: How would you like to die?

1) Hurtling toward the ground in a plane riddled with holes from a air-to-air gunfight.
2) Hand to hand combat against insurmountable odds
3) Good ol' Swordfight

What can I say, the need to die in battle is in my blood.

What if the elephant doesn't hit anything vital and you end up alive but with your bottom half completely crushed? No more sexy-time with awesome blonde, no extravagant bucket-kicking… but that would make one helluva story to tell the other stumpies down at Wheelchair Central.

That would be the way to go. Slowly increase the dosage. You eventually just stop breathing.

That's how doctors get around euthanasia laws. It's called making the patient "comfortable".

1.  I second "in my sleep".

2.  I think overdose would be a fun way to go, but it's not the most secure way to kill yourself.  At which point, I think I might mix it with alcohol and a good slit-wrist style bath.


Alright, now, who wants to be transistorized?

You'd be better off taking as massive a dose as possible without any prior dosage. Increasing dosage allows for the possibility of accommodation; you might reduce the chance of killing yourself and increase the chance of going into convulsions (generally more of a problem with weaker opiates, like codeine, but still a problem with anything short of heroin) while still semi-conscious and semi-caring.

Sheer exhaustion and heart failure as several hundred of my enemies lay dead or dismembered around me.

As I fall, I land on the MacMonkey button. MacMonkey comes out of the back of the monitor with a crowbar, clobbers the last guy, and gets back in his spot.(A la' trunk monkey)

Re: How would you like to die?

How do I want to die? Preferably doctor assisted suicide when I'm already on the way out due to odl age / terminal disease.

As for a plain straight up suicide before my time? I don't like pain - so it would have to be quick / painless. Preferably exposure to vacuum - unconscious in 15 seconds, dead in 180.
