We all know as life forms we all die eventually. That said some deaths are more desirable then others.

I Myself would prefer to be hit by an asteroid.

So, What would yours be?

[Levi]

I want to die from the heat death of the universe.

[Tarran]

I want to die as my mind is uploaded to a computer and turned into an AI.

I want to die from the heat death of the universe.

You'll have to make a lot of deals with the devil to live that long.

[Fayrik]

I would like to die by being sucked into a black hole, or some other End of the World scenario, that's, preferably unnoticeable. The advantages are threefold.

• I get to witness the last moment of the planet.
• Nobody outlives me.
• I don't feel a thing.

It really is the best way to go.
...It's not going to happen, and I accept that. But, it's the best case scenario, I think.

[Ancre]

I wanna be shot to death because I protected someone.

Yeah, that's a good way to die.

[Mindmaker]

I still hope euthanasia will be legal here, by the time this becomes relevant to me.

[Moogie]

In my sleep.

Pretty boring, I know, but I'm thanatophobic. I do not want to know when it's about to happen.

[Strife26]

Let's see here.

Ideally, it'd be doing something worthwhile.
Fighting an impossible battle would probably sit well with me, like meeting the devil and trying to shoot him.

Really, it'd need the core elements of my personality in it.

Death Seekerness (should be something that I willingly get myself into somehow)
Violent
Protective
Hubris (possibly fighting against something that mankind should not reasonably be able to stop)


I'd rather that I died young, at least right now. I'm not sure if I'll ever get something to tether me down, although lately I've been starting to lean that way, wanting to leave my Army life (largely because there isn't a war for me to fight) for something settled down where I can sit on an easy chair with my cat and a paper.

I'm not too bothered about when and how.  I mean clearly a long life is preferable, but I don't see any need for it to be a great and noble thing, or particularly awesome.  If I drown saving some kid's life, what makes that a better death than saving some kid's life, surviving, and getting hit by a bus the next day?  Make the most of your living days.  Don't wait until you die to be awesome.  Anything worth dying for is worth living for, too.

I'm an organ donor and if I don't get the full use out of them (ie I die young), it would be nice if they were salvagable.  Unfortunately I have a feeling that it will happen by me catching fire.  But oh well, it means I'll go out doing something I love (being on fire, apparently).

In any case I'm not really afraid of what comes after.  That's part faith, and part dying in enough dreams to be actually pretty comfy with oblivion.  Yeah I don't wake up or have blind panic in those dreams, I just kind of drift for eons.  It's kind of nice.  If there's nothing after, I'm cool with it.  If there's reincarnation, I hope I'll come back as something awesome.  If it's some other kind of eternal reward, I'm satisfied that I'll wind up on the good end of the scale.

[Tellemurius]

damnit you brought up way too many dreams with this.
*sigh*
Probably dieing from protecting someone.

[Taricus]

Anything hilarious to me.

[dwarfguy2]

Something quick and painless. If I'm going to die, I want to get it over with.

[Supercharazad]

I'd like to die fighting. Not another human of course, but after I've seen everything this world has to offer, I'd probably get into fighting wild animals, eventually dying at their hands.

Most Bad Ass Death Ever award right here.

Personally, I don't care when or how death strikes. If I had a choice between getting shot in the back, or going down fighting, I'd choose the latter.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

I'd be fine with dying for the good of my family and friends, or on a larger and more unlikely scale mankind as a whole. However, I think it is far more likely that, given how technology is progressing, I will "die" by having enough of me replaced by mechanical substitutes that I no longer count as alive. Of course, I'd prefer to just keep cloning replacement parts for myself, but I don't think that's as likely to play out within my lifetime.

Despite my desire for as long of a life as possible (with the single caveat that I can continue to live with my actions and choices throughout, such as the aformentioned dying for family/friends/humanity thing), I don't really have that much of a fear of death anymore. It just doesn't bother me like it did when I was younger. I'm only seventeen, but I feel old and weary all the time these days. That might have somthing to do with it, I don't know. All I do know is that I feel fine with the prospect of dying at any point, which strikes me as rather odd.
