Cause of Death

I thought this thread was an Obituary tribute :beer:

Why does that remind me of this?

Must be the font :smiley:

When you are thinking: “This is the big one! I’m comin’, Elizabeth!”

Just push on the button of your modded personal alarm beeper.

If I were to die prematurely it would be from still seeing this post taking up valuable space on the Budget Light Forum.

The usual stuff: heart disease, cancer or some other major piece of pizza/pie -graph.

Covid vaccine. :disappointed:

You never know when. https://nypost.com/2021/07/30/10-year-old-killed-after-rock-crashes-through-windshield/

That’s really sad, richbuff :frowning:

+1… It sure is. :cry: :cry:R.I.P.

Off-topic threads are allowed on BLF.

If you don't like this thread, it's best to just move on to another thread instead of threadcr*pping.

Threadcr*pping is just a form of trolling, and trolling is not allowed on BLF.

If anyone honestly think they'll die from the vaccine, I think they'll receive a Darwin Award after they die from something else.

Plus discussions about Covid-19 are not allowed anywhere except the Covid-19 thread, which is currently closed.

Also, conspiracy theories are not allowed anywhere on BLF.

Well… It seems I don’t live the risk-off life of the OP and I won’t go into that, but if I did get cornered into risk:off 24/7, I’m pretty certain that after a few years anxiety would compel me to ask the OP question. How long am I gonna live…
You can’t have control over that. Love the people you love, cos that’s all you’ll have on your death bed. And shrouds don’t have pockets, so money won’t be a comfort when that time comes.

^ this. 110%

donnie?

Yep, and if I remember correctly, Donnie Darko chose to die because he thought that the world would be better without him.

I think the world is better with LB in it, though.

Something like that could have happened to me when I was commuting by car each day. Whatever was the source of the rock, it looked like a kitchen-sponge hit the road in front of me, at highway speeds, and bounced up and hit my car. Put a long dent and gash in my hood, belted my port-side wiper-arm so hard that it bent pretty bad and the blade popped clean off and went flying, then “rolled” up the windshield putting 3 big holes in the windshield that you could wiggle your finger through, then flew up and over the car.

I was wearing a button-down shirt with the sleeves rolled up, good thing I instinctively closed my eyes when it hit, ’cause I was showered with shards of glass that painted little teeny dots of blood all over my exposed right arm, and I was picking out shards of glass from my sleeve “cuffs”.

After the initial “wtf?!?”, I drove to work as normal, and visited the local precinct to report it, and then got sent to highway patrol ’cause it was their jurisdiction.

Needless to say, it wasn’t a kitchen-sponge but a big honkin’ fist-sized piece of concrete.

Had a few incidents like that which sometimes make you feel like you’re playing with house money.

I try. I bring light to the world. :laughing:

Flying objects on the highway are very dangerous. Once I had something coming at me so fast I had no time to react on the interstate. Smacked the grill so hard I thought it put a hole in the radiator. Kept watching the temp. gage until I could pull over. Right now there is a circular crack in my windshield from a rock I think. Never saw it. Came off a truck coming from the opposite direction. Another time something from a log truck that passed me as I exited a 4 lane highway hit the windshield right in front of my wife’s face. Luckily it didn’t go through. Kids have been known to drop rocks off overpasses and they have killed many. Driving is like Russian Roulette.

Yeh, that’s one thing that was suggested by HWY, that some idiot kids threw something off the LIRR overpass (which was about where it happened). Not sure how high a rock would bounce depending on the road material, so couldn’t really say.

And there was that time a baby, in a car-seat, in the backseat, and in the middle, got killed dead by a bowling-ball(!) some shiite-for-brains thought would be “funny” to drop onto the highway below. Went right through the windshield between both parents sitting in front.

Too many individual articles to list, so…

(Damn, can’t believe I remembered that incident…)
