Best way to die?

[charlou]

Old, but still appreciating life, in my sleep ... just don't wake up. Like that. Thanks. Nature. If. You're. Listening.

[SteveB]

I want to live forever with the possibility of self-destruction. So basically suicide sometime way down the line.

... or this option. But the suicide must be fail safe and peaceful. With no tears from anyone. Chins up, guys. Wait, what are those? Party invitations .. ?

Hm. I'd like to age well, gaining only a tolerable level of aches, pains, and things falling apart. I'd like to feel like I'd done work I was proud of, didn't feel the need to do more. I'd like to have a nice night with my family and people who love me, followed by sex and cuddles with my beloved. Then I'd like to fall asleep, have the sort of amazing dreams that make your throat tight and your heart swell, and never wake up.

SOunds nice but... then you'd never get to do all that again, and again, and agian...

I never want to die. Or get any older. Or more infirm. EVAH!

Dying is shit. Imagine never reading Keats again? Or listening to Joni? Or wanking in the bath? Or whatever makes your life worth living.

You might as well talk of the best way of being kicked in the balls. Or the best way to be mugged. Or the best diarrhoea you ever had. It ALL sucks. It's all bad.

I have to go with riding a nuclear bomb as it falls to earth. Probably waving a cowboy hat and yelling "woo!".

You're talking about suffering. Who welcomes that?

Death is fine.

I don't know. I've known enough really old people to have a sense that eventually, you're just cool with going-- you're tired, and want to quit. Hard to imagine now, but, I bet if I'm lucky enough to pass 80 I'll feel the same.

[SteveB]

XC just can't imagine death without suffering. Silly man, really.

[hadespussercats]

XC just can't imagine death without suffering. Silly man, really.

Well. I can certainly picture preferring being alive to nothing.

[Xamonas Chegwé]

XC just can't imagine death without suffering. Silly man, really.

No. I just recognise it as the end. I don't want life to end. Despite its worst bits, I enjoy it too much.

Life practically is nothing. A blink. A whimper. You won't even be remembered.

I met him once.

He's dead now.




Errr... no correlation there.

[Blind groper]

I agree that dying any way stinks.

However, assuming you gotta go, and you get to choose how, like if you are on death row and they gonna kill you regardless, then I choose nembutal.

Nembutal is a narcotic. An underdose puts a big fat smile on your face. A solid dose makes you slip away into sleep and never wake up.
