Thank you, sb56637, for cleaning up the thread.

Maybe I shouldn't have defended myself, but that's what I generally do when attacked.

18

Yeah, definitely defensive posts never serve the intended purpose of defending, because thereā€™s not really any danger or anything to defend oneself from at an online forum. Itā€™s all just different manifestations of arguing, which isnā€™t allowed here.

I want to die having hard sex with an explosive female.

No other way to die is worth in my opinion.

@sb:

You make a good point.

I learned something important today.

Sorry boss.

21

Cancer :frowning:

Living in South Africa I live most days in fear of being killed as a result of violent crime .I have lost friends and family due to random acts of violence.Had a close friend raped and murdered in her own apartment. Its an unfortunate part of life here in SA.

23

I'm worried about gun violence here in the U.S.

It's a serious problem that isn't getting fixed anytime soon.

24

They put Covid as cause no matter how you die.

My two worst fears: chronic illness and amnesia. The latter may not lead to a sudden death. But what is ā€œlivingā€ if you lose your memories and donā€™t even recognise yourself?

How many of us have living will?

I havenā€™t done mine; but I intend to put it clearly that I donā€™t want to ā€œliveā€ on as a vegetable through some breathing machine.

The best ā€œprematureā€ death is , like in Kenny Robertā€™s song the Gambler, is to ā€œdie in your sleepā€.

And if there is a soul after death, I intend to take my soul out to explore the universe. I donā€™t want to go to ā€œliveā€ in eternity either in heaven or hell. Exploring the vast universe, like a big comet, would be interesting. I guess my soul wouldnā€™t need any flashlight, even though many parts of the universe is rather dark, especially in ā€œblack holesā€.

1 out of 200 persons develop cancer each year. This year it could be you. Uh-oh.

Sorry for joking. I had cancer, and it is a mercyful cause of death. You have time to manage everything, can fight it, no one has to ask questions beginning with ā€œwhat ifā€ when youā€™re dead. I used my time wisely when I got my chemotherapy. Never thought Iā€™d manage to survive so many years.

Now look at Donnie LB Darko. In a split second he was dead, last thing he saw was this guy in a rediculous bunny costume. His parents lost their home and had to sue the owner of this airplane.

Cancer is ok.

27

Depends on the type of cancer and the stage its at.

28

What was yours?

29

Exactly!

30

Mauled by a Bear or Mountain Lion while hunting.

OR

Eaten by a shark or gator while diving.

31

Probably heart failure. Too much unhealthy intake, and not worth living without salt/fat/drink/D&R tobacco.

Still canā€™t imagine why people are scared of guns. People have always been the problem, for hell is other humans.

32

I don't think there is any premature death . People all die when they were supposed to . You can't add or subtract .

I agree that some deaths are what we would consider unfair or unfortunate but there is a season for all things. .turn .. turn ... turn .

the last thing put under foot is death

33

Iā€™ve always hoped I would be shot in the head by a jealous husband when Iā€™m about 93 ā€¦

34

I figure Iā€™ll ā€œdieā€ when someone or something gets bored with this simulation and turns it off.

Thanks sb. Hug to brother Raccoon too. This thread actually changed my plan today from doing a freesolo climbing lap up an easy 700 foot route, to getting the pup out for a hike to trying to transplant some Wapato where there is shitloads to another location close to home where I want it to be where there is none. The internet seems lacking in the best way to do that, but Iā€™m planning on hiking in with a couple quart water bottles, filling up the lower 1/3 with silt and leaving some river water in, then hiking out and trying not to spill.

Thanks Raccoon!
