I wanna die doing what I love: complaining about stupid people and eating Skittles Fruits, that's the American Way (TM). :D

Two words:Violent Revolt

My only requirements are that it has to be on the first page of the newspaper, and the words “Freak Accident” must accompany my name in the headline.

I'd settle for that, but I'd rather die tossing molos at something, or while having an orgasm.

In a speeding fireball of death, having acheived the world land speed record, only to have catastrophic systems failure nanoseconds after breaking the record by an amount so vast it will be 80 years before anyone even thinks of trying to break it again.


That or surrounded by my progeny, feebly sketching in my sketchbook or composing music, creating beauty until my last breath (a la Claude Monet)

Self-determined.
I haven't figured outthe exact way yet, but I want to die quietly and alone, preferably by my own hands. Listening to some beautiful music maybe...
The two methods I have in mind are either pills or freezing to death, I haven't decided yet.

I want to be assassinated, my coat kept on display in a museum.

Two words:Violent Revolt

Three better words: Extreme Old Age!

In a blaze of glory, preferably at the head of an army, preferably durring some major battle where the odds of victory seem hopeless, and where my giving my life inspires the millions of soildures under my command to avenge my death, thus ending decades of global war, and securing an age of peace and prosperity for generations to come.

But if I cant have that I'll settle for atleast going with some dignity. None of this sit around going senile or in a coma for years while endless court battles try to determine my right to end my own life. After all, it is MY life, isnt it?

Just remembered, I once decided how I'd kill myself if I get the urge:

Save up all my shit for a month, in a big plastic bag, build a bomb, and go detonate me & the bag in the (local equivalent of the) senate.

I've always wanted to see all the warmongering arseholes covered in shit & bodyparts, and at least that way someone else would get the chance.

Does it matter? It dosnt matter to me how I die.

I want to be shot in the back of the head, so I don't see it coming, and it doesn't hurt to bad, or for too long.

Before I get old. :p

I want to die like my grandfather: peacefully, in his sleep.

Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.




In all seriousness, 'Violent Revolt' sounds good, as long as I am one of the instigators for a cause I believe in, rather than one of the unfortunate neutrals that gets killed in the middle of it all.

I want to be shot in the back of the head, so I don't see it coming, and it doesn't hurt to bad, or for too long.

Question: Why dosnt matter if it hurts or if you see it coming if you are going to be dead?

if someone told me that i was gonna die and they could either shoot me or i could choose how he killed me i'd want to get shoved out a plane. That would be fun and i wouldent even feel it.

Quick and painless. Like, not the way this guy (http://foucault.info/documents/disciplineAndPunish/foucault.disciplineAndPunish.torture.en.html) did.

Question: Why dosnt matter if it hurts or if you see it coming if you are going to be dead?

By that reasoning, why even worry when you die? It doesn't matter since we all die, right? How about we kill you the way the guy in my link was killed? Would you mind?

I think you would.

Stangely, most people aren't real keen on dying. There's almost alway one or two things they'd like to settle before they go.

Equally mindboggling, most people don't appreciate being subjected to long periods of pain.

Really really good questions those...

You're not human, are you?

On my 65th birthday while having sex with my hot 26 year old wife. I won't be around to care how much it traumatizes her, and I figure once I die I can stop feeling remorseful for stuff like that hehe.

Omg! I've been waiting for this moment. I'm giving a speech at a UN peace conference. A mad Iraqi terrorist (note: this idea came about in '99) stands up from the crowd and slice my stomach open with vullet fire from an AK-47. My inerds spill out and with my dying breath, I cling to the UN flag, taking it down with me. My blood pours out accross the flag. All of this live accross the world. That's the shit.

So you want recognition?

i want to die after i've taken all the hostages up to a high rooftop building and a :sniper: has just shot me i want to fall off the edge letting go of the "Dead mans switch" which anhiliates the building my body and a couple of nukes hidden in important land marks

I guess i'm just a "people person" ;)

I think you would.

You shouldnt worry about what I think. I wouldnt mind it actually. I am going to die someday why worry about something I have no control over?

Since death is the end, I intend to live forever or die trying... :D

You shouldnt worry about what I think. I wouldnt mind it actually. I am going to die someday why worry about something I have no control over?

I intend to take control over it... I know that one day, when I really can't stand it all any more, when it gets unbearable, I'll take matters into my own hands and just disappear from this life. And I sincerely hope I will not be punished with reincarnation or eternal life or the likes, but that I will simply disappear and be gone forever.

So you want recognition?
Damn straight!

So you want recognition?
Damn straight!

I want to sarcrifice myself while doing something to save the whole world, and recognition would be really great. Like from the films 'Armageddon' or 'Deep Impact'.

Pitty everyone who'd care would be dead. It'd just be arseholes like me left... ;)

Lying in my deathbed, after giving blessing to all my children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Then i'm going to point to heaven... And say "THATS JESUS!" let off a big wet fart and go with the wind.

Two words:Violent Revolt

*Gasp* She's a communist!! :D

i want to go out in a blaze of glory, accomplishing something, like the land speed record, or climbing Mons Olympus on Mars or turning the tide in a huge pitched battle, better to die and acieve something than to live in insignificance... no i don't want to die for the recognition, but so that i could have accomplished something with my life, and if it takes my life to do so, so be it

Death. The final frontier.

Yeah, I think about it all the time. Not because I’m old or anything. And I’m not sick either.

That I know of, anyway.

I simply believe that I happen to spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about death.

And I do.

I mean, it’s going to happen eventually.

How will I die?

When will I pass away?

What will happen when I cease to exist?

I guess these very questions have vexed us since the very beginning of time.

Well, I’ve decided how I want to die.

I want to drop dead between a woman’s long well-toned legs, wrapping them around my ass as I shoot my final deposit of jism into her womb. And then I’d croak.

What a way to go.

To die with a smile on your face.

I’m fairly certain I’m not the first man to have this ambition.

At least I hope not.

Granted, it might be pretty traumatic for the woman in question...

...but she’d probably get over it in 10-15 years.

I don’t see why it would be so traumatic.

After all, she could say she “fucked him to death”.

With pride.

Or “sold him the farm”.

Or “redeemed his chips”.

Or “provided the bucket for him to kick”.

That’s not such a bad thing, is it?

And it would be the perfect irony:

The release of 180 million or so life-bearing sperm cells into her Fallopian tubes as one schleps into eternity.

One hundred and eighty million to one?

I like those odds.

two possibilities:
-A bullet trough the head (very quick if done efficiently)
-Fighting for absolute freedom (=anarchy), this doesnt exclude number 1

As late as possible

As late as possible

What, like after the late night movie?

Not for a long time. :D

I want be a hundrud years old and die in a high speed motorcycle crash.

If I weren't already immortal, I'd like to die from over-stimulation in the bedroom, if you know what I mean. Best way to go if you ask me...

Has that happened before?

I want to die during the end of the world or quickly and painlessly in my sleep.

Chased off a cliff by naked women :D

*wins*

What, death by sex? No idea, but it's used on TV programs so it must be true!

Erm... wouldn't that require you to actually run away from them?

Seriously, in a pitched battle, the ol' viking way.

Erm... wouldn't that require you to actually run away from them?
That's true. Being legless and all. :(

*ponders*

Abruptly.

Just remembered, I once decided how I'd kill myself if I get the urge:

Save up all my shit for a month, in a big plastic bag, build a bomb, and go detonate me & the bag in the (local equivalent of the) senate.

I've always wanted to see all the warmongering arseholes covered in shit & bodyparts, and at least that way someone else would get the chance.
thats.... nice :eek:

myself, i had the plan of going down my nearest supermarket in the car and buying a load of hosepipe, a funnel and some duct tape, connecting it all to the exhaust of the car and feeding the pipe in through the window - suffocate slowly while listening to a very specially prepared compilation cd. there's a really sheltered bit of the car park of the local Asda here i'd always planned to do it.


however, nowadays i'm looking forward to dying in my ripe old age, hopefully in the loving company of loved ones and family :)

"suicide is painless"

Because seriously, theres no better way to show those warmongers that violence is not the way to solve disagreements than by suicide bombing the senate...

Is anyone else noticing this?

I'd quite like to go out with everyone else, only because I wanna see what the end of the World will be like. Getting smacked in the head by a comet would amuse me as I fell to the ground...

Since I doubt the World will end in a humerous way in the next, 70 years (Im 17 and I smoke, I think living to 80 is optimistic(sp?) enough), so I'd like to go out with a bang.
I want it to be public, and dramatic, not dying in my sleep. Also, I want it to be a situation where I can acknowlegde I am about to die, not have some sneaky guy shoot me before I know about it. While I'm at it it may aswell be worthwile?

I used to quite fancy the idea of being in a Submarine that had too little oxygen to support the whole crew so I shoot myself to save the Oxygen for the others, but these days I quite like the idea of being chased through streets and buildings by 3 armed men with very bad aim. Of course, while I'm looking over my shoulder at them I run under a "waterfall" of something highly flamable whilst running across a rooftop, and leap off the side of the building to my death whilst burning. Hopefully I'd land on someone.

Double post...I thought these new forums prevented that?

As a friend of mine said: "I want to go down with a sword in my hand and a battlecry on my lips! Even if I'm in a hospital!"

Heroically defending others would be nice, as long as I get chopped to pieces rather than captured and turned into something horrible, or have horrible things done to me. I wouldn't like that at all. :(

I would like to die during a big party for my 100th birthday, as long as my time of death was after 8:03 p.m.

That way I can be sure most of my family is there...not that I want to traumatise them, but I think it would be great to go out surrounded by people who love you who are also having a good time. Okay, so maybe the morning after would be better...

One word: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooohooooooooooooo!" *splat* *crunch* *explode* *melt* *spontaneously cease to exist* *whatever*

Hmmmmm,sounds like a plan.tell you what you go first and ill be right behind you...........

"everybody's gotta go sometime"
"suicide is painless"
etc.

That's the idea of this whole thread.

One word: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooohooooooooooooo!" *splat* *crunch* *explode* *melt* *spontaneously cease to exist* *whatever*

You want to fall into the sun? :confused:

I wanna be eaten alive by the cast of friends :D

hmm... assasinated while ruling the World. that would be a good death, because ruling of the world is involved.

hmm... assasinated while ruling the World. that would be a good death, because ruling of the world is involved. Wouldn't you rather go out defending your last bunker from the depredations of the advancing army that's destroying your empire? More heroic!

Died once. It was overrated ;)

In short, I don't. But if I had to choose, it would be suicide, hemlock probably, due to the socrates, if possible with the love of my life.

Rambo Style...with two chainguns.

Preferably the last remaining human marine on a battlefeild full alians trying to rip my skull from my neck.

COME AND GET SOME!!!

this or...

wait wait! i got another one

i want to push americas 'big red button' and end the world

wait wait! i got another one

i want to push americas 'big red button' and end the world

I still think the hemlock is infitely more sophisticated and intimate.

Preferably going over the top!

I want to die of a heart attack caused by too much sex at one time.

That's true. Being legless and all. :(

*ponders*
I think they were alluding to the fact that why would you want to run? ;)

Because he ran up a massive debt. They're debt collection agents. ;)

Anything quick and painless, like being shot in the head or getting my head smashed in during a car accident. So basically, any brain injury.

Because he ran up a massive debt. They're debt collection agents. ;)

*Imediately starts borrowing large amounts from the bank.* :D

Quietly and in my sleep, like Granpa. Not yelling and screaming like the people in his car.

Playing an MMORPG.

like Mr starcraft? lol

ive pondered the gullotine. except with an electrified blade, so that i still jump once my head comes off.

i should maybe be frozen or something so i can re-awaken in an era where people can live forever if they're enough of an asset to the government. i'd overthrow the government, of course, and take the technology for myself and immediate fami... wait, they're long gone. pity.


im rambling.

Wait, I've got it! I'll die of too much intellectual activity, like Lenin!

Any way's fine, as long as I'm not expecting it.

then you won't mind that sniper im hiring for you tomorrow?

he might arrive today since you wont expect it.

A spray of automatic gunfire across my body is probably pretty high on my list.

Another high on my list death would be to be tortured to death slowly and painfully.

I don't know why, but I want to die slowly and painfully. I was seriously fantasizing about having one of my eyes gouged out with a knife the other day while I was tied up, hanging by my arms. And I value nothing more than my vision. I'm not suicidal or anything, I just think the concept of a painfull death is something I want to experience. Most people are afraid of pain, but I'm not.

Ah, a subject I think about quite often. Here is a list containing all my hobbies and how I could die in each one of them:

Driving: I drive like a bloody maniac, and sooner or later it will catch up to me. I just hope when it does, my whole car turns into a fireball instead of a lame crunch. A great big firey heap on a road somewhere would be impressive.

Skydiving: One of these days, my chute won't open, and I'll be falling 180ft per second, and no way to slow down.

Bomb making: I make small explosives which I detonate for fun. Sooner or later, one of them will blow up premature and take me out.

MMORPGs: Admittedly, this is the only hobby I know of where I can't think of a reasonably pheasable way that it could kill me. Maybe I'll have a heart attack or something.

Flying: That someday, I'll be flying a plane and a wing will come loose/fall off/get deformed, resulting in a very large explosion when I hit ground.


If I manage to survive all that, I am working on a few other experiments which could, unexpectedly, go horribly wrong, resulting in widespread destruction, including my own death. However, they could go horribly right and put me on the next trip to Mars, but that's too much of an "if" to start figuring out how I could die on the way.

Late.

Well, if you ever takre a break from bomb-making to play then you could combine two of them...
or bomb-making with any of the others would be rather interesting

I will accept no other death than death by dinosaur. :D

I'd settle for that, but I'd rather die tossing molos at something, or while having an orgasm.
Geez that is sounding good! But multiple women please! Yeah I know PIG, my wife agrees -- pig. But you gotta be who ya gotta be!
;) ;) ;) :fluffle: ;) ;) ;)

See thread title.

I wanna die doing what I love: complaining about stupid people and eating Skittles Fruits, that's the American Way (TM). :D

Like in bicentenial(sp?) man. Id like to just drift off, very old, laying next to my wife . Neither of us having to mourn the other. But rather just shift together to the next stage of life.

Well, if you ever takre a break from bomb-making to play then you could combine two of them...

Build a bomb while skydiving? It has possibilities...

Skydiving. My chute won't fail, but I'll fall into a mess of moving gears. That's a real man's death.

communist revolution or drug o.d.

Why would anyone want to die any other way than quietly in their sleep? It's not exciting but you won't even know that it happened. Even better than a brain anuresm.

communist revolution or drug o.d.

Hippie.

Epicly. I probably spelled that wrong.

in a plane ramming into the deck of a ship.

My only requirements are that it has to be on the first page of the newspaper, and the words “Freak Accident” must accompany my name in the headline.HEADLINES: "FREAK ACCIDENT PENCIL 17 FOUND DEAD IN MOTEL ROOM WITH 17 HOOKERS" :p









you know what... I kinda wanna be found dead with 17 Hookers... at least I'd have died smiling. :D







I hope... :(

(apologies to Pencil 17, that kinda popped into my head when I read your post.)

I want to die with my head being shorn off by a slug from a shotgun from a future version of me, who traveled back in time to kill me. Have fun watching the paradox rip the universe apart.

YOU ARE TERMINATED!! (Rips out plasma battery pack.)

Lets say life starts at the beggining of this thread, and it ends when the last post is made in this thread. Here I find myself somewhere in the middle of the thread trying to add something before my time is up. What is the point of me adding to thread? Do I have a purpose for typing here, or is this thread just something that goes in any direction. Any ways to hell with the symbolism.

I wanna die being rembered, but in a good way!!! With my life flashing before my eyes like in the movies! I want front page of the newspaper, not the obituaries page. Like: Acclaimed general dies, ending decades of war. Not some guy died at 97 having absolutley no memories of his life left in tact. He leaves some old hag and bratty kids behind.

A) Blimp/dirigible/Zeppelin/airship crash

B) Hail of submachinegun fire :mp5:

C) Accident somehow involving archery, fireworks, and a swimming pool

D) Mauled by pheasants

E) Flying Guillotine

F) Ninjas

A) Dirigible crash

B) Hail of submachinegun fire

C) Accident somehow involving archery, fireworks, and a swimming pool

D) Mauled by pheasants

E) Flying Guillotine

A) What? B) Classic (80's movie cliche`) C) .... D) How would it come to that? E) Guillotine can fly?

E) = kung fu movie weapon

Actually, I think swift would be good. And right about now, too.

Like the man in the opening scene of an episode of the flying circus: While being hunted by hundreds of topless women :p
No, seriously, all I care about is that I get older than anyone else earlier in the family. The record (as far as we know) is 103.

Some type of international incident that gets me a national holiday in my honor. That way everyone can have a day off from work. BBQ and drink beer in my honor.

I want to be the first person over a hundrud to die in a high speed motorcycle crash.

are you threatening me? :p

i don't care as long as it doesn't involve my throat being touched in any way

Nice topic - we've all got to die one way or another.

I'd like to die preferably fighting for my country, Canada. In the military - the Air Force. If I could choose how I died, it would definately be dying with honour - in other words, being shot down in my CF-18 for example.

If not, I'd like to die in a plane crash or car crash. So long as my brain is undamaged.

I wouldn't mind dying as a result of a natural disaster.

I'd rather be the fault of my own death, excluding suicide. But being murdered is also on my list.

Maybe even through poisoning of sorts. Something that will simply stop my heart quickly and quietly.

It would be ok if I died from a shot wound. And just bled to death, because a sniper (or anyone rightfully equipped with a firearm) was doing their job.

As for my burial, I'm not too fond of creamation. Just have me buried, no rot within the soil.

I'd like a funeral, even if my body was not found (from a plane crash for example)

--you can easily assume I've given this a lot of thought--

I want to die fighting capitalism and government, of course.

I want to die while assasinating Fidel Castro 0.0

are you threatening me? :p

Nope.

I don't think I really care any more... as long as it happens soon.

I don't think I really care any more... as long as it happens soon.

Way to give an air of positive feeling to this thread, mate. :rolleyes:

I want to die in the arms of my lover.
If I can't have that, I want to die in a way such that the doctor can say
"He died of a broken heart."

I'd like to die satisfied.

I'd like to die fighting nobly for my beliefs. My ultimate ambition would be to have my face become an awesome portrait that people hang in dorm rooms and put on T-shirts.

Or die after a long life ruling the world.

Or ninjas. Honestly, it would be quick, unexpected and awesome. Plus the press on the subject would be hilarious - this just in, the case of a man killed by ninjas in central North Carolina has authorities baffled...

Shoot out with the cops I kill 4 or 5 then they get me that’s my dream……….and kill every one that ever messed with me that would be nice to

And cretin family members………..errrr most of them

I'd like to die doing something pointless like telling my significant other that she looks fat in that dress or maybe fighting in Iraq or something.

After giving a long speech about any number of topics in front of a massive crowd, say something along the lines of "and if any of what I've just said is untrue, may God strike me down." at which point I will promptly slump to the ground dead.

in the arms of a beautiful woman

in the arms of a beautiful woman

Seconded. :p

Quickly

My private jet is spinning out of control when it flies through a wormhole, which tosses it upon the sun. A bizarre series of coincidences cause a show unlike any seen before by any one.

At ground zero of a nuclear explosion. There's no quicker way to go.

Seconded. :p
more like twenty thirded. I mean c'mon, at least say something original

I will never die.
When my body ceases to function I will be Cryogeniclly frozen. Then when they find a why to crue what ails me I will be reanimated. I will live forever. Then I will rule the world. Bow before me you silly mortals.

I will never bow before someone who thinks such silly thoughts. Living forever would suck, even if you ruled the world. Cause then their would be nothing to achieve after that. Besides, Me and my renegade army would kill you.

Right after the biggest orgy since Caligula.

"You're born naked. If you time it right, you die naked."

Nothing to achieve after world domination? You silly silly mortal. There is the task of populating the solar sytem, galactic conquest and the total rule of the universe. That would literally take forever as it is infinite.

How dare you not bow before me. I am sending my death squad to anihlate you. I hope that is the way you want to go.

I dunno, read my post in this thread

Look at my location and then send them off

i'd like to die in some way so righteous and gruesome that i would be considered a martyr for hundreds of years, complete with bank holiday and postage stamp.

If I can't have that, I want to die in a way such that the doctor can say
"He died of a broken heart."

You want to die from having your heart frozen then shattered into a million pieces?

Bump.

Bump.

Let me die a youngman's death
not a clean and inbetween
the sheets holywater death
not a famous-last-words
peaceful out of breath death

When I'm 73
and in constant good tumour
may I be mown down at dawn
by a bright red sports car
on my way home
from an allnight party

Or when I'm 91
with silver hair
and sitting in a barber's chair
may rival gangsters
with hamfisted tommyguns burst in
and give me a short back and insides

Or when I'm 104
and banned from the Cavern
may my mistress
catching me in bed with her daughter
and fearing for her son
cut me up into little pieces
and throw away every piece but one

Let me die a youngman's death
not a free from sin tiptoe in
candle wax and waning death
not a curtains drawn by angels borne
'what a nice way to go' death

Erm... freeze to death. Just fall asleep after the whole hypothermia thing, then you die.

"How do you want to die?"

At the ripe old age of 85, shot by the irate husband of a 25-year-old-woman, while climbing out her second floor bedroom window. :D

old and rich

Old, in my bed, surrounded by friends and family.

Seriously though, anytime, anyhow. I don't mind. I just hope I get the chance to say goodbye to the people that matter to me.

Flying: That someday, I'll be flying a plane and a wing will come loose/fall off/get deformed, resulting in a very large explosion when I hit ground.

Hey cool, how many hours do you have? how old are you?

I love this! Who wrote it?? :)
Roger McGough. An English poet. Wrote a very wicked poem about school called 'The Lesson'. Which if you've ever been a teacher, you'll appreciate.

"How do you want to die?"

That'd make it even better then, wouldn't it?

I can't answer this because it is a complex question composed of the following two questions:

"Do you want to die?"

"If yes, then how do you want to die?"

Since I would answer the first question as "no", then the second question does not apply.

"I want to die like my father. Peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming and engulfed in flames like the people in the car he was driving."

You don't want to die????
I'd love to, not because i'm tired of life or anything, but it seems to me it would be very exciting, you know, what happens?
one of life's biggest secrets just reveal itself (or you just don't realise it and you can sleep forever and serve as food for other living beings), beautiful isn't it? How can you not want to die?

LOL! Well, I do have my ... feminine side! :D

That'd make it even better then, wouldn't it?
I swear to God you sound more like LG with every passing day! OMFG!! :eek:

You certainly keep it well hidden. :D

Actually it's still relevant. What is irrelevant is whether or not you want to die. You're going to die whether you want to or not, so it's perfectly reasonable to have a preferred way of going.

Now, back to the question: I'd like to suddenly drop dead of heart failure, despite being in perfect health, at the age of 117.

:p

in an amusing way that doesn't make me look like a dork

(for example just after having really good sex with many attractive women)

p.s. i want to be old when this happens

They way i want to go is: :headbang:

The problem comes in determining where life ends and death begins. I tend to view my life as extending to everything in existence, so in order to die, everything would have to cease to exist. If everything ceased to exist, then death would have no reference and therefore no meaning. It's like asking "What happens after the end of time?" Since "happens" implies the existence of time, nothing can "happen" after the end of time, so the question is unanswerable.

Actually it's still relevant. What is irrelevant is whether or not you want to die. You're going to die whether you want to or not, so it's perfectly reasonable to have a preferred way of going.
I assert in this case that this is a false dilemma. Granted the choices for how to die are limitless, but there is one other choice that is being excluded from the question, which is "I don't want to die", which is a valid answer, and is the one I want to choose.

I can't understand why so many of you want to die in painful ways, like heart failure, being shot, crashing in a plane/car, heart attack during sex...heart attacks/heart failure is painful. :(

And who says that freezing to death is not painful? Or falling while your parachute fails to open, what about the mental anguish? That is why relatives of people who die in horrible accidents get lots of money---for pain and suffering that their relative went through as they died in the car/plane crash... :(


Let me die peacefully in my sleep---just lay down, go to sleep, and wake up in heaven, instead of in a dream. :D

1) Asleep, in my own bed, at home at the age of 83 years 2 months and 8 days.

or

2) Surrounded by friends and family

Quick and painlessly. Without warning.

Well, here's your warning: you are going to die. Now you have to think of something else. :p :D
You know what I meant :p

2) Surrounded by friends and family
Personally I'd prefer my friends and family to be bloody well helping me live than just standing there watching me die. Also makes one wonder why they there - and what part they had played in my demise.

"50 things to do before you die": I would have thought the most obvious one would be 'scream for help!'

Been thinking about this… holding back the tide of demons with my sword while the rest of the party escape… remember me forever, comrades!

Ahh heroism. :fluffle:

Preferebly a few days after setting foot on an alien planet, many light years from earth. Ofcorse the planet will be named after me :), i would'nt have it any other way..

Jake22']They way i want to go is: :headbang:

Judging by your articulate response, you probably will... :rolleyes:

I'd like to have a Ninja (dressed in full attire) jump through my window, tear off my arm and brutally smash my skull in with it.

I want to die without ever knowing it took place. Whoops, there goes existence.

knowing me, i'll end up dieing the same way as everyone else: a failed experiment by me destroying the universe or, at least the part we reside in.
though i'd prefer to have the technology to at least transfer my consciousness into a machine, knowing me i'll die just before i get a chance to use the technology if i have access to it, though

i dont wanna die :(

In battle, preferably with swords, no snipers, or suicide bombers because that's no fun.

I hope I die in my sleep, like my grandfather did. And not screaming desperately like the passengers of the bus he was driving did.

If I die then let it be one of two ways:

Let me live to be 85 with all my senses, with all my functions still available to me. I dont want to be one of those diaper wearing droolers who has to live in a home because his family wont take care of them. I'll make sure to raise my children to keep an eye out for their parents when they get old. And so help me if it looks like things will be different then let me die the other way.

Let me give my life for something worth wild. I'm going into the police department when I get out of college, so if I'm going to die let me die defending the innocent. Let me die trying to make my home a better place, and let me take the fucker who kills me, with me.

i am goth, so that means i am already dead.










:p joking. actually, i havent thought about this, because i am consistently doing stupid things that could get me killed, i guess i just dont worry about it. i just hope its bloody, on film, and they get my good side.

With an uzi in each hand, a knife between my teeth and a nuclear "dead man's switch" between my butt cheeks surrounded by an army of eco-freaks, anarchists and liberals.

Preferably, of course, the clips in the machine pistols will be recently emptied, the knife blade notched from multiple blade/bone impacts and my good mates just travelled the requisite distance beyond the blast radius. But if this can't be arranged, my kids could at least ensure the nursing home staff provide the essentials, hmm?

Its perfect - quick, fun, largely painless and incredibly heroic.

Bump.

Doing something extremely heroic that would make me remebered forever.

Either, running guns blazing into a hoard of KKK members, or....

Being launched from a cannon, completely naked, on fire, painted purple, into the pyramid in front of the Louve. On camera, of course.
