Living a long fulfilling life or dying in one's sleep?

I suppose neither is really that popular.

Well, there's "unpopular" and then there's "ridiculously unpopular"... :P I suppose I'd just prefer not to go painfully.
I think "ridiculously unpopular" is reserved for anus-related deaths.

In an ideal world, I'm immortal.

But the world is not ideal, so if I do die, I want to be content with where I am in life at the time, and I want it to be quick, easy, clean and painless.

You, sir, will go down in history for that quote.

Meaning I'll attempt to make it an in-joke. :D

Lol.... Am I the only one laughing at that? Probably, eh.

And yes, I realize immortality would eventually SUCK. Perhaps immortality, with the power to give it up (like, once all other sentient life ceases to exist and shows no sign of ever returning). I would still prefer it.

I want to die in my sleep, like my grandfather, and not screaming, like the people in his car.

Nah. Get him a two bag woman.

One bag for her head, the second one for you in case hers rips.

In the misquoted words of Woody Allen, "it's not that I fear Death, but I'd rather be somewhere else when it happens to me".

On the other hand, that All-Powerful, All-Knowing Entity known as the Internet told me I was going to die at 85, lynched by a mob of angry third-worlders, And when you consider my life's goal is to become a third-world dictator, and that the plan is Going Well, it seems then that the Internet might indeed be in t he right.

On the plus side, I'll get to see all my friends and foes die before I go (with the exception, of course, of the shmuck who sends those angry third-worlders after me in my old age).
Faith is what credulity becomes when it finally achieves escape velocity from the constraints of terrestrial discourse- reasonableness, internal coherence, civility, and candor. Thus, the men who commited the atrocities of September 11 were neither cowards nor lunatics of any sort, but Men of Faith- perfect faith- and this, it must finally be acknowleged, is a terrible thing to be.

Look at the avatar. There you will see a 2.0 x 2.5 x 3.0 cm right frontal lobe ring enhancing mass with edema, which leads us to 2 possibilities:

1. seizures will turn slowly turn slowly turn slowly turn my gray matter into mush the consistency of oatmeal or a nice porridge, which is great for Jerry Springer re-runs.

2. one last explosion of rage, probably self-directed which may very well manifest itself in the form of a 3 ft length of garden hose, 1 large funnel, and some very large mostly illegal, can only be found in Mexico, FIREWORKS!

'nuff said

I'll be boring/sane and second this one. Toxic's drowning in a toilet seems tempting but it's not something I've never experienced.
See, I wouldn't prefere dying while being with young brunette over dying while recalling of how I was with a young brunette.

Yeah, but the poor slob didn't get a decent instantaneous explosion. That's really what I'm after, some sort of proton torpedo right up the tail-pipe.

If I can't have immortality...

I'd want to die a horribly painful death while fighting for some sort of righteous cause. Preferably the sort of righteous cause that involves me and the main villain/hero tumbling into a volcano. Afterwards there would be a large and colorful explosion, and my many mortal lovers would weep for my demise.

Hee hee. I ain't picky.


I figure, if you're going to die, you might as well die in as dramatic and excruciating a way possible. You only get to experience it once, right?
