The suicide thread got me thinking... how would you want to die? Quiet and peaceful, random accident, suicide, etc. If suicide, how? Why might you prefer to die one way and not another?

I'm still pondering it myself...

Hail of bullets, man. No question about it. Put me in the middle of a mob war with a tommy gun. Take some sons o' bitches down with me, too. I don't see any other way to go. Just too perfect. Action, drama, excitement. It's all there, waiting for me. I just gotta find the right family, if you know what I mean.

I think I'd want to go cleanly and quietly. Go take a nap under a tree on a nice day and not wake up. I know it sounds like it's out of some corny movie, but hey, it's my wish. Tongue

The only way I'd kill myself would be if I were in a hospital bed in horrible pain with a dim future. I'd want one of those morphine buttons in my fist, and I'd just pump myself full of it and slip away painlessly.

good Q. actually, must admit ive never really given it much thought-- considering alot of ppl die randomly subject to their environment- shit they dont expect. um lets see.

i guess, id like to be high as a kite- say after ive just chewed down half a dozen mdma tabs or on acid. at least the end would be vivid and colourful.

Hmm, I have a rather interesting idea for how I'd like to go out. I think I'm going to refrain from saying it, though. Heh. I don't even know why...

Hmmm, it involves 3 things that have been mentioned here. Plus a few other things.

Other than that, though, I'd kind of like to be a martyr. Not sure for what cause though, but it'd be neato.

I'd have to say freezing to death... whether this would be passing out in the snow or very cold water, I'm not sure. For some reason, it just seems like a very fitting way to die.

I want to die in such a way that I take out a whole bunch of innocent bystanders. My first reaction is suicide bombing, but that has been done to death, so its a cliche.

I want the whole gas-station explosion that takes up a block. That'd be glorious. Deaths should be glorious. I believe in that 'choose your method of execution' thing in MP's 'Meaning of Life.' Being chased by a murderous group of topless women dressed in lacrosse gear (?) would be nice.

One of my top choices, believe me. Especially after Death to Smoochy. I mean, how can you compete with that? It's mainly either them or the good ol' Italian mafia (thanks to the Godfather), but every once in a while I get a brief obsession with the Russian mafia (most of the time they just seem like a bunch of pricks though).

i agree wholeheartedly. i think something like that that puts on a real fireworks show for the still-living. also something that happens in a split-second so you feel no pain. i wonder what happens to your mind when you die in something like an explosion and you vaporize. do you flash-forward to "the other side"?

I want to die alone. In a log cabin, next to a fire. Bundeled up in a blanket, rocking in a rocking chair. I want it to be dusk. I can hear the waves hitting the shore. My children are on the beach, I can't hear them, but I know they are safe. I would be holding a book. Not reading it, just holding it. Staring into the fire. I would be thinking of the meaning of life, and that I can just look it up in the dictionary.

Sounds nice, X.

I'd like to go out with that special someone. Of course, I don't have that special someone at the moment, so yeah. Heh. It'd be nice, though. Also has to do with my little idea of how I'd like to go out that I was mentioning before.

Something about lots of drugs, knives and being with the person you love and dying together. Kind of nice.

Wumpscut says it better:

"once someone told
a story about these small desert birds
throwing themselves
in thorns when copulating in lust

and while embraced by death
they sing so fine than never
and while embraced by death
they stay in love forever

like martyrs do
they dedicate their lifes in deep vein
of ancient vows
and die of flaring ardour in haze

thorns they lurk on roses stem
they do intend no harm them

squeezing me hard
in thorns that burn like a fire inside
thrilling my head
until they rip my shivering skin

thorns they lurk on roses stem
they do intend no harm them
they lurk on bodies stem
they make my heart arise them"
-Thorns, by far, the best Wumpscut song. Ever.

Fuck.

I'm going to have to take this song off my playlist. Er, not Thorns.

I keep hearing this song so much. =[

It's Only in Dreams, by Weezer.

Must be my all time favorite song. Too bad I hate it.

Blaaaaaah. I'm babbling.

Don't mind me. The cat in the hat has a better plan.

When I finally reach a ripe old age where I've gone senile or can't walk on my own anymore, I want to buy massive amounts of heroin and inject some every hour or so. I've always been curious about that drug but I refuse to try it since it's highly addictive. So why not do it when I'm nice and old and about to die anyway.

LOL. I don't know how to dance the hora!

I've danced with one whore-a or two in my day, though!

And when I die, I will die doing the cabbage patch!

Cabbage patch 101:

Hold both arms straight out in front of you, plams down and hands in fists, with the thumb side of each fist together. Move your fists in a countreclockwise circle, bringing your hands close against your chest, all the way out, and back again.

i wanna be shot down after playing my last night in the leading role of a play i wrote + directed (+did the publicity shots for). i would die happy knowing i've achieved everything i want to.

and what's kool about it is that people would just think it's part of the act at first, and then they'd panic.

not that i ever think about that kinda thing *bites lip*

If I died I'd either want it to be peaceful or so fast I that I wouldn't have time to really know it.

My dying wish would be that I died happy. That has to be my at most goal in life.
