How would you rather die?

Hope this isn't too macabre but I was inspired by <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=98527" target="_blank">what you want to do before dying</a>, so here's another question:

If you were sentenced to death what method would you choose?

Pushed off the top of a volcano and into the magma? Guillotine? 20 deadly scorpions in a small room? One angry hippopotamus in an arena? Locked up with an unlimited supply of bacon?

    Quietly in my sleep, like my grandfather - not screaming in terror like the passengers in his car.

    How <i>deliciously</i> morbid.


    I'll vote for nuclear apocalypse. Or even eventual radiation-poisoning after mentioned apocalypse...but it wouldn't really be an apocalypse if someone survived, would it?

    Sorry Skulkbait. An attempt to make the best of the thread. It was either that or "not at all." I mean, what do you expect?

    Genetic experimentation gone horribly awry. Or riding a nuclear bomb all the way down.

    You realize that if a laser was powerful enough to destroy earth, it'd just atomize you and lose a very small amount of its specific energy before you came anywhere close to touching the emitter, right? That your mass is insignificant to the oceans and rock that it'd be intended to boil?

    What kind of mad scientist would design a superweapon that could be stopped with the sacrifice of a single human body, anyway? Or one that needed time to recharge?

    Not a mad scientist, just a scientist who needs a comb (or some conditioner) and to buy some new safety goggles. :b

    Slumped in an armchair in an apartment shooting my life's savings worth of heroin into my veins, while on a whole slew of other opiates.

    Actually had this conversation before. I decided that as long as I go under while playing my horn (or even practicing), I'll be happy.

    Suicide mission to assasinate Kim Jong-Il. Drop me off with an AK-47, kevlar, and a belt of C4 and see how far I get.

    Talk about morbid...

    I would like to die in a comical way. That way when whomever is responsible for getting my body will come upon the scene and won't help but laugh at what they see.
  • TalesinTalesin Our own little well of hate Join Date: 2002-11-08 Member: 7710NS1 Playtester, Forum Moderators
    Digz, no, that happens AFTER you die.

    My top list of things to happen to my corpse:<ul><li>Dress me up in a clown outfit with a large marital aid, and throw my body out of an airplane over an elementary school</li><li>Grind my body up and make it into hamburgers, then force-feed it to self-righteous vegans</li><li>Wait for rigor mortis to pass, then attach ropes and marionette-walk me down the center row at my own funeral</li><li>Sneak me into an amusement park and set me on one of the rides for the workers to find in the morning</li><li>Stuff my corpse with candy and string me up as a pinata at a random child's birthday party</li><li>Viking funeral. Right through the shipping lanes at peak times.</li><li>Reanimation.</li></ul>

    How would I know? Maybe you should ask him <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="???" border="0" alt="confused-fix.gif" />

    He's at the bottom of my lime pit, as I simply shot him in the head instead of concocting some pointlessly complex method of killing him.
