Fighting for something worth dying for. Not necessary fighting someone else with violence though. Struggle might be a better word.

Perhaps saving a child and end up dying in the kids beautiful mothers arms with an arrow in my heart hehe...


edit: and once again I get to quote my favourite song: "I want something good to die for, to make it beautiful to live"

I thought the "die fighting" thing was incompatible with the smilie, and I honoured the slash as seperating (a voted option)/(a joke with smilie)

"Die fighting" was a terrible option in the poll. The best I could read into it was "die fighting for life" ... ie fight against own death, but lose.

Could have been two options perhaps: "Die fighting for something (eg justice)" and "Resist death to the end."

On the day of the Superbowl, the planes shall fly towards each other and fire the cannons in such a way that the bag of coins and I collide in mid air above the field. The coins and whatever remains of my body will then fall to the earth, raining down over the Superbowl crowd. If I can get it done during the half-time show even better.

I would honestly start with the big fat cuban cigar. After about ten minutes, life will seem a lot more tolerable.

(Hint to non-smokers. A big fat cuban cigar makes so much damn smoke, you don't need to inhale. Swill it round in your mouth and blow it out. The nicotine is absorbed through the mucous membranes of your mouth)

I blame propaganda. If fighting for it kills you, it must be worthwhile!

But why die fucking? Wouldn't it be better to fuck, have (a) great orgasm(s), lie in blissful contentedness, and slowly drift to sleep, cuddling your lover(s)... Just never to wake up again?

Probably be a bit of a shock to your lover, but less so than coitus-extinctus, I think.
