A simple question, which method of execution would you choose from the above listed?

Mine would be burning at the stake. Remember, a hot stake is always better then a cold cut!

Now discuss.

I chose "other:" attacked by a thousand voluptuous, sex-starved wimmin! :D

Talk about dying a happy man!! LOL!

You sir are a dirty old man. I'm proud of you.

Guillotine for me, please, if I'm allowed to specify the method of beheading.

You sir are a dirty old man. I'm proud of you.
And you, sir, are a very perceptive man. Hell, I'm proud of me too! :D

Beheading, then I could finally answer the question of whether someone remains concious for a short time after losing their head. Of course I wouldn't be able to tell anyone, but at least I'd die enlightened!

I want to die in my sleep like my grandfather... Not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his car.

You know that had to show up. I just wanted to be first.

I'd probably end up beaten to death because there's no way I'd sit still for any of them.

Or they'd just end up dragging me out back and sticking a gun to my head, even then I'd have the guy who pulls the trigger's balls in my hand if I could....


Never give up.

I wonder the same about drowning. I've always thought that once your lungs are full of water you might stop fighitng .. realize you have no choice and give in to it. Plus I've dreamt many times I was underwater , couldn't reach surface and was able to breathe or at least thought I could. Also I think water is spiritual.

I'd choose firing squad (if I'm able to feel the first few bullets before I'm dead)or drowning.

I'd want to be executed, with the blindfold on and the full firing squad. There's something old school romantic about being executed in such a manner, there's something almost mythic and fairy tale-ish about it.

Just shoot me & get it over with. It's cheap & now a days with sharpshooters it's acurate.

Yeah. You probably wouldn't even feel much pain with a sharpshooter and their scope.

Firing squad. No question. Nice and quick, with your brains spread over the walls before you know it.

Burning at the stake for me. Just to know what all those innocent people had to go through.

They didn't look at all romantic, mythic or fairytaleish.

I would like to be dropped out of a plane. Free-falling to your death...

No matter How I am killed or I die. The only real thing I hope for is that I am close to God at the time, in prayer. I don't mean prayer as in saying grace. I mean at one with him, with him... period.

Hell to me is being without God. To me with God comes all joy, peacefulness, happiness and love.

I am not perfect, I won't be in this flesh. I am aware of that.

LOL..Eutrusca...You, sir, are in dire need of a lover. One who is very kinky.

Since "death by pleasure" isn't too likely...I'd choose a firing squad, I suppose.

Firing squad...always wanted to try the Matrix dodging bullets action :D

I have a feeling that that may not work for very long :p

Me? Umm... I'm immortal, so this thread doesn't apply to me...

I've always wanted to try 'Death by Roast Beef'

I would like to be dropped out of a plane. Free-falling to your death...

Seconded.

Ideally by accurate firing squad, good clean headshot is instant death.
Probably too harsh, but crimes should determine means for death penalty.

To quote the awesome Breaker Morant,
"Shoot straight you bastards!"

Old age. :D

Seriously? I'm immortal too, so it doesn't apply to me.

Electrocution is fun. It hurts, sure, but it's like, burning and you get such a high from it...

I chose electrocution on the poll, but if freezing were an option, I'd choose that.

Of course, the optimal death would be to die making a politcal statement or defending your own beliefs/rights or someone else's beliefs/rights.

There is nothing romantic about the death penalty. It's bloody, it's hard, and it's wrong.

Standing directly below a Thermonuclear detonation.

A split second of flash and its all over. :)

I disagree. Some people deserve death. In fact, I don't think many people deserve life.

I'd take the lethal injection in the hopes that perhaps a miscalulated dosage will lead to me just having a good time on their dime.

I'd like to die as a suicide bomber for some desperate cause.

ttBullets are cheap and even a monkey can fire a gun :mp5:

Now discuss.

I resent your authoritarianism, and the assumption that I will acquiese to your demands!

I will not as a result, discuss this, I am merely posting the explanation of my choice of "other".

British Iron Age Bog Body style:- Firstly a bash on the back of the head, then a garrote, followed by my throat being cut, and finally, being left in a bog to be preserved in the mud for a very long time.

Should I be executed or ritually sacrificed.

Beheading. One clean sweep downwards, and it's all over. Firing squad? Nah... I don't like the thought of feeling the ten bullets break into me. And drowning fills me with dread.

BTW, for anyone who's thinking of posting about last stands, you don't want to die in one. They're confusing, brutal, and you will most likely die alone, slowly, painfully.

I would like to die while joining the mile high club with a beautiful woman. Well, not during, after. Make that two beautiful women.

I want to be shot and killed by a cop. That way it'll be in the news for a while. I want a headline like "Young, cute white girl murdered by cop". Kinda silly I know. After the death I want my body flung over the side of the grand canyon.

Dropped from an airplane at 30,000 feet directly onto the heads of Bin Laden and W. Bush.

Death by fags and booze if you please.

The Americans here are going to interpret that in a different way than you probably meant it.

This would be like dying over and over again, so you'd be immortal.

Now why would you "hate to admit" to being hyper-sexed? Wear your uber-maleness with pride! :D

I'LL VOTE FOR THAT! :D

By firing squad.

I don't think you can get all of Ireland with a single nuclear bomb. Unless it's an inflatable island.

you can too.... let's try and see....

I hadn't already noticed that :rolleyes:

Simpleton.

My point was:

Although I would have gotten the subject of my sentence right.

It's the last bit.

Technically, it means: unless the nuclear bomb is an inflatibe island.

Well, that's clealy what I meant. You throw the bomb over Ireland, and some distance above ground, it (the bomb, not Ireland) inflates to form an island the same size, thus blowing it (Ireland, not the bomb) entirely.

ah yes, but i need something i could be easily strapped to

Heheheh... Shades of Dr. Strangelove. :p

I'd say firing squad... quick and painless. Although I don't know what I could ever possibly do to get myself in such a situation. ~walks away non-challantly whistling~

A simple question, which method of execution would you choose from the above listed?

Mine would be burning at the stake. Remember, a hot stake is always better then a cold cut!

Now discuss.

First of all, the famous Three Stooges Joke is, "A hot stake is always better than a cold chop!" Got the last word wrong. :p

Anyway, wouldn't being Cryonically preserved prematurely be the best way?

ah yes, but i need something i could be easily strapped to


velcro and bubble gum FTW!

Yo, Cam! Where ya been? Don't remember seeing you lately. :(

velcro and bubble gum FTW!

but i'd be all sticky then....

Would love to go by a firing squad in a circle around me. Each of my executioners currently on death row or serving life in prison. That way i know my death benifits the world. :D

Firing squad. And without a blindfold.

Other: Beaten to death with Nerf Swords weilded by scandanavian midgets dressed in Lederhosen and Dirndls. It would be a public execution, with free laughing gas provide to all in the audience. I'd also like to be dressed as Barney and high as a kite on ether, fentanyl and several grams of Wheelchair Weed.

What can I say, I'm an absurdist. I'd want the the world to realize the absurdity of both life and death. That and I'm a mental patient...

My other option would be to die in a duel against a Fencer of far superior skill to myself. The weapons would be Epees with sharpened tips and blades. This way I'd have a snowballs chance in hell of living. Not much, but enough to face my final hours with *some* hope. I'd also find out what its like to Fence with the real thing, and a chance to find out what its like to draw blood from an opponent.

Maybe I shouldn't listen to Skinny Puppy while responding to threads like this.
