Your Death

[Phelia]

It is wonderful.

It is beautiful.

It is propaganda in the most sweet terms one might ever imagine.

Are youn [r3-ared to read my state,emt?

When I let it wash over my brain it feels like water, but when I try to pick it up I find a fistful of pearls.

I was 8or1n ;3ady/

i made enquiries about the whole leaving one's body to science thing, and most of us wouldn't get taken up. they wanted really really healthy dead bodies! not overweights, no smaokers, no-one who'd died from a huge list of diseases...

guess they have too many bodies to choose from so get picky; make it hard so people don't just opt for a funeral-expenses free end

 

[Joeybagadonuts]

A Viking funeral would be nice. But I'll settle for a steel drum and a gallon of gasoline.

I'll be dead. I won't care.

The way he says "play" is so enthralling. I am trying to figure out which type of voiceless bilabial stop it is, but I'm a total dilettante at that sort of thing. When I say it, it sounds soft and blah. "Play." Blah. Maybe I need to incorporate my diaphragm or somep'm.

It's a combined voiceless bilabial stop and an alveolar lateral approximate.

 

[butters]

Oh my! That was a lot to handle! I hid my face behind my hands for a second, like that would help. Wow! It takes up so much space that way.

i know! i don't know which works better, the 5 or 10 or something else but i can't attempt it again right now. my head might pop.

wonders if Byron tried it (not encoded, sorry)

i love how expressive you are!

and smoky and the bandit reference spotted. oy

 

[BoyNextDoor]

Suddenly.

 

[butters]

I'll be dead. I won't care.

but think of the awkwardness of rejection for your left-behinders. 'sorry, can't take this one, she doesn't meet our specific criteria, you'll have to dispose of her someplace else'. it's just not cricket.

^very bad ashes joke, sorry

*cool*

well now we know. and they say lit's just a porn site. heathens!

 

[parodyluvr75]

I would like to be ritually thrown into a volcano.

I changed my mind, sign me up!

Fine. Back yard for me. Shame about the volcano.

butters is going to say that it will spit us back out again due to our lack of virgin status. She hates dying wishes.

no, no i'm not. but to die a virgin would seem a shame.

i'd rather be dead, first, though before being thrown into the flames. it has to be painful, if only for a short while - like that first breath of molten rock

Nothing about dying is going to make you happy, will it?

How about if I just volunteer to feed random mobs of corpse beetles? What, you don't have those in England?

Oh, you're awesome. Why does it sound different to me when I say it? Am I velarizing the "L"? I imagine this is difficult for you to answer, as you would have no idea how I'm saying it, but you did manage to destroy the One Ring, so I have faith in you.

 

[bluemuse]

When I reach the point when I can no longer take care of myself, take me out to the woods and leave me with a bottle of Patron. Let the woodland creatures have a little feast and catch a little buzz.

i feel misunderstood

when the time is right, i welcome death. is it not as natural as breathing? moreso, since we're dead or non-existent way longer than our mortal shell, animated by breath, ever stalked this stage.

mobs. now there's a pretty visual.

I could do the vulture platform. That always seemed classy.

 

[Colonel Hogan]

I am easily into the last quarter of my life, so death is no longer an 'academic' or vague issue. I am very concerned about having a terminal disease and feeling life slowly and painfully drain out of my body over a period of many months. I don't feel like I have the intestinal fortitude to face that prospect courageously.

My first wish, therefore, is to die painlessly in my sleep.

Secondly, there won't be much of a funeral. 'Relatively' speaking, I'm down to my mother, one aunt and four cousins (three of whom live out of state). No siblings, no wife, no kids. In all likelihood, my mom and aunt will predecease me.

Most of my friends from my adult life live in Colorado where I spent 30 wonderful years. I have exactly one close friend locally.

When I die, I may actually have more 'momentary mourners' in this forum than in real life. It doesn't get much more depressing than that, eh?

Born again virgins can commit to virginity postmortem, correct?

no, no i'm not. but to die a virgin would seem a shame.

I was planning on them chucking my body in, no volcano suicide.

maybe, my dear, lovely, smart colonel, you should consider moving back to colorado.

From what I know of you, which is admittedly little, you seem like a lovely, smart, interesting person who's living a great life. That doesn't sound depressing to me at all.

 

[parodyluvr75]

We always touch more lives than we think we do.

 

[phrodeau]

maybe, my dear, lovely, smart colonel, you should consider moving back to colorado.

Or join Facebook.

Not always in a good way, it should be noted. Life has a way of turning us into accidental assholes. Or on-purpose ones.

Thank you for your kind thoughts! Actually, I moved back to Kentucky five years after my father died in order to be with my mom and care for whatever she might need. I just did not want to get a phone call one day and come back for her funeral. She deserves far better than that.

At the time I made that decision, I felt all noble and sacrificial and crap, but it turned out to be the best decision I've ever made. And if you had told me then that I would feel that way five years after I got here, I would have said you were nuts.

But that's the troof!
