    A gunfight with Clint Eastwood.

    In a really hilarious way, like flying a plane in to one of two of the tallest towers in the world causing them to collapse, killing thousands of innocent people for the laugh.

    No it's not. When you're drowning, you're not going to sit back and relax, you'll want to live. You're body automatically wants to breath, no matter how hard you try to hold your breath. You'll eventually breath in water, which will cause your body to involutarily cough it back up, which will cause you to swallow more water, which will make you cough even more and cause greater panic. You'll continue flailing around trying to breath until you're body suffers anoxia (think that's what it's called) where basically, your body runs out of oxygen, and if you're lucky, you'll lose consiousness before your heart goes into cardiac arrest (which isn't exactly painless).

    All in all, I could do without it.

    sorry but you are wrong.

    Having been stuck under the water for close to 2 minutes i can assure you, i had accepted my faith and stopped struggling about 15-20 seconds before i was removed, everything slows down.

    Panic,
    struggle, can i grab anything.
    nope,
    panic,
    what if i move my legs....
    OUCH,
    panic,
    ah crap,
    im dead,
    could be worse,
    feeling kinda dizzy now,
    what just touched my arm,
    AAAIIIIIRRRRRR.
    vomit.

    So you're saying all that was comforting? :confused: The point is that drowing isn't relaxing. And this is from personal experience too. You're body fights whether you want it to or not. The space of time from when you're fighting to breath and from when you black out is tiny and for it, you've got a head ache and your lungs feel like they're exploding. Add to that, waking up with some fat guy giving you mouth to mout, it's really not worth it!

    Yet drowning in someone elses piss is considered kinky. Damn double standards!!!

    to eat yourself to death over a period of two years. just get fatter and fatter and live in your own filth.

    How many drowned people have you seen with smiles on their faces? ;)

    I'd like to go down in a blaze of glory but knowing me it'll be a suitably boring death. Like falling down the stairs or something


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 658 ✭✭✭Crazy Christ


    does anybody have any information about the politician who allegedly got pied in the face at a press conference and smothered on the cream and crust. I think it did happen

    Age 120 heart stoppage in the company of company of twin nurses who just happen to have a de fibularator so I won't stay "dead" long, and then lots of tlc

    Heroin overdose.

    Actually, inject heroin, then jump over the side of a massive cliff.

    Blissful and painless.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,397 ✭✭✭✭Degsy


    Jump feet-first into a tree shredder..messy and painfull but what the heck!.

    Interestingly, anoxia can be quite a euphoric way to go, which is why strangulation is a common practice during sex among the kinkier folks, aka chokers, and also why mandrake was said to grow under the bodies of hanged men - its where their ejaculate fell when they were hanged. Theres a spot of useless trivia that will haunt you to your uncannily-predicted-on-boards-grave. :D

    I for one would like to go gasping in the midst of several dozen freshly deflowered virgins. And for you deities with a warped sense of humour listening in, that does not mean I want to be murdered in a rustic setting by a serial sheep rapist.

    Taking you all with me.
    Failing that, sword throught the heart. Or go the way Boromir did. That guy took so many arrows and stabs but kept going. Would be painful but what the hell, it's cool.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,921 ✭✭✭✭Pigman II


    Alone, terrified and in horrible pain.

    The same way Tony Montana went.

    I'd say thats more to do with power and submission than oxygen deprivation.
    and also why mandrake was said to grow under the bodies of hanged men - its where their ejaculate fell when they were hanged.

    I call poppycock. Link! LINK!




    Me, I want to be sitting on a nuclear weapon when it goes off, listening to some really good, really loud music. The speed of the explosion would be much faster than the speed at which my nerves operate so the chances of me experiencing anything unpleasant before I die would be minimal.

    I've also always loved the notion of being hit by a completely random, giganitc block of ice from the sky. And no, not a meteor. It has to be a perfect cube.

    Plane crash, listening to Reign In Blood. Inspired by hitting turbulence while listening to it a few months ago. It was exciting. I reckon you'd have so much adrenaline you wouldn't feel a thing.

    He's right, it was quite a common superstition, can't be bothered searching too far for back-up links but here, here and here for example.

    You want to have a heart attack while you're doing the sheep-shagging? :D

    In answer to the original question, I'm as predictable as a a lot of the guys on this thread, I'm afraid ... in the saddle sounds perfect!! ;)

    And if not that, at least quickly, painlessly and preferably with most of my faculties still in place until the end.

    Wish Id died in the UCI queue before I saw it, awful awful film script wise, 2 ****ing hours of CGI! The highly tappable posh English yoke playin the wife was the only reason worth watching it. Most overrated film in god knows how long. Grr, just thinking of it makes me want to do the director in like the chainsaw dude in Scarfae.


    As for me, I dunno, Tommy in Goodfellas had a fairly quick death compared to what he did to poor Billy Batts :)

    Hmm, it would probably have to be Hulk Hogan breaking my neck after catching me with Brooke (ah Hogan Knows Best. Its like the Osbournes, except you get the horn watching it). I would have said doing anything to Chuck Norris but apparently he is all pacifist and religious now in real life :) He was interviewed re the CN facts, he said they were very funny but people should remember god is more powerful than Chuck Norris :D tbh I want a bout to prove it once and for all.

    My way to die would be of heart attack due to sex with a gold digger who thinks I'm a millionaire but actually I only have 2 polo mints and a sock in my bank account! Muahahaha.

    Like that, I'd enter the BB contest and smuggle in some weapons and tear gas..........they want ratings? Ho ho, I'll give 'em ratings!!
