How do you hope to die?

[kholhaus]

Peacefully and quietly,

or Quickly and Loudly.

Either are pleasant options.

[CrapofallTrades]

in a way that near instantaneously resurrects me and causes me to be immortal.

infinite nothing is not appealing.

[_Quietus_]

Another time, highlander

[ragingCommunist]

In some way in which I would bleed out in a non-painful way.

[Jay-San]

I will be electricuted not cause of death row but It's one of my favorite one or dying in 6050 after freezing myself and getting old in the new world oh and I will see if ectobiology is real and if it is send 5/10 ppl chosen to take care of 5 of the others which will be sent in the same places 20 years after the first 5 are sent and then send 4 of myself each with the design to kill the 5 guardians of the second 5 after 17 years (each group 5 can contact their other 4) and the freeze on one to recreate this cycle one time with send the guardians back as children to the second 5 and the the third five can make their own families

So you wish to ascend to the God Tiers?

I'd like to go peacefully and painlessly. Failing that, something involving an attractive woman's anatomy.

Chainsaw Vagina!!!!

[_Quietus_]

That reminds me of several horrible things I've heard
I'd rather not speak of them

[Coalesce]

I dunno how I'll die... but I do know, that I do not want anyone to feel guilty or responsible for my death. I'm ready to go whenever it happens. 'Course I wouldn't mind sticking around for another hundred years or so but when it happens, it happens.

[BenTheCoder]

In death I will not be denied
In Great Britain, a short ride
On the largest tomcat,
Leaving a river of scat
off a cliff, falling into the tide.

[_Quietus_]

that's actually kinda hilarious

[ragingCommunist]

Changed mine. Anyone ever seen the Devil's Rejects? Remember the ending? Yeah, that's how I want to die.

[wrinklefudger]

I want do die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather did, not screaming and soiling myself like the kids on the school bus he was driving

[ImperatorMortis]

I know I already posted, but I want to die alone in my bed with nobody around me. Preferably in my sleep.

I want do die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather did, not screaming and soiling myself like the kids on the school bus he was driving

HA! Nice one.

[Vorthon]

I hope not to die. Transhumanism FTW!

[mysteriousOutsider]

I hope not to die. Transhumanism FTW!

wow okay

I just came here to say that exact thing.


Yeah, I'm taking the immortality option.

[_Quietus_]

how do you hope to die
not do you hope to die
nobody fucking hopes to die

[Stormspirit]

how do you hope to die
not do you hope to die
nobody fucking hopes to die

Yeah, but if you don't die, you don't need to know how you hope to die. You just won't die.

[_Quietus_]

Yeah, but if you don't die, you don't need to know how you hope to die. You just won't die.

don't get technical with me
DO NOT GET TECHNICAL

[Kiwizoom]

Quick, like getting totally creamed by a car, or sort of something stupid in my sleep.

[_Quietus_]

I see a lot of people saying they don't want to experience their death.
it's not like you get post-traumatic stress from dying, dead people just don't have things like that to worry about.

so why not die honerably?
Like, if you knew someone who got creamed by a car, would you have thought "Well, that's a good way to die"
Methinks not, you'd think something like "Wow, that's fucking inconvenient, he got hit by a god damned man in a car" Because being hit by a car, is inconvenient as shit.

[ImperatorMortis]

wow okay

I just came here to say that exact thing.


Yeah, I'm taking the immortality option.

I think immortality would start to suck after a while.

To me immortality would feel like a curse.

[_Quietus_]

Hmm...
Well...
Maybe if you also grew old...
Or maybe if you spent your entire life cutting people's heads off and getting hit by lightening
Or... wouldn't that second one be awesome?

[ImperatorMortis]

Hmm...
Well...
Maybe if you also grew old...
Or maybe if you spent your entire life cutting people's heads off and getting hit by lightening

Or maybe if every other living creature died, and you were stuck alone on your planet. Or maybe if the planet blows up, and your aimlessly floating in space, and towards/through the sun.

It would take a ridiculous amount of years for you to float to another solar system, and find a decent planet.

[mysteriousOutsider]

I'm not talking about magical immortality here. I'm talking about real things that could actually happen.

There's always risk, you can (probably) always choose to die, and you can't escape entropy.

at least

you really almost certainly can't escape entropy. Not forever.

A better term would be "indefinitely extended lifespan".
