sonicheaven, sounds good to me.

i might favor a quick, painless, accidental death when the time is right. maybe at about 70??

― ron (ron), Friday, 30 August 2002 13:39 (twenty-four years ago)

I want to go at 39, like Che and Martin Luther King. I somehow doubt my contribution to mankind will be as great, though.

eleven months pass...
I think if you were killed in a really fanciful way, like say Tony Montana was, it'd be pretty good.

That's your idea of fanciful?

― s1utsky (slutsky), Saturday, 9 August 2003 19:16 (twenty-three years ago)

it's an exciting way to go out and could lead to martyrdom, ergo classic.

If one is famous already, being killed can be the start of a whole new phase of one's career, including a healthy a jump in one's Q rating. Therefore it can be somewhat classic.

For the hopelessly obscure, being killed rarely presents one with any worthwhile opportunities compared to what life offers, such as weight loss or reading a good book. For such as we, decidedly dud.

being dead did wonders for the careers of jim morrison, ian curtis, and kurt cobain.

How is Tony Montana's death not fanciful?

― Ally (mlescaut), Saturday, 9 August 2003 20:10 (twenty-three years ago)

Pardon me for being emo, but I think dying (in any form) is pretty much dud.

Jesus to thread

― s1utsky (slutsky), Saturday, 9 August 2003 23:19 (twenty-three years ago)

classic, being killed = instant cred
dud, no more never

― hellbaby (hellbaby), Saturday, 9 August 2003 23:22 (twenty-three years ago)

Martyrdom is cool, I have to admit. Hurts like a motherfucker, though. Please, kids, don't try this at home.

― Jesus (Chris Piuma), Saturday, 9 August 2003 23:27 (twenty-three years ago)

... it's so weird seeing Jesus post non-haiku-ily.

― Tep (ktepi), Saturday, 9 August 2003 23:27 (twenty-three years ago)

Tep, My child, have you been ignoring the "sexual reticence" thread?

― Jesus (Chris Piuma), Saturday, 9 August 2003 23:31 (twenty-three years ago)

Also, why do you talk as if I am not in the room? Is My face so difficult to look upon? Open your heart to Me, I hold the lock and you, you hold the key.

― Jesus (Chris Piuma), Saturday, 9 August 2003 23:32 (twenty-three years ago)

I skimmed much of it cause it expanded so much while I wasn't on -- but your last, like, 30 posts I've read were haiku!

Kind of an odd association to have, come to think of it.

Sing "Freebird" next! FREEBIRD!

― Tep (ktepi), Saturday, 9 August 2003 23:33 (twenty-three years ago)

I am your Lord and Savior, not your classic rock request line.

― Jesus (Chris Piuma), Saturday, 9 August 2003 23:35 (twenty-three years ago)

Dammit, Jesus, don't make me masturbate. Play Freebird or the kitten gets it!

― Tep (ktepi), Saturday, 9 August 2003 23:48 (twenty-three years ago)

Rumors that I am anti-masturbation have been WILDLY exaggerated. Wank that winkle, young man! So saith the Lord.

― Jesus (Chris Piuma), Saturday, 9 August 2003 23:53 (twenty-three years ago)

Damn, I'd been saving that as a threat for ages now. Denied.

just get over here and put me out of my misery.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 10 August 2003 20:59 (twenty-three years ago)

The idea of masturbation as a threat is cracking me up... "Stay back! I have a vibrator and I know how to use it! I swear to god, you take one more step and I'm gonna turn this thing on! I have fresh batteries! I'll do it! Stay away!"

"Do as I say or the clit gets it"

― oops (Oops), Sunday, 10 August 2003 21:12 (twenty-three years ago)

getting killed is one there, but it all depends on where you respawn and how long it takes before the server resets...

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 11 August 2003 04:05 (twenty-three years ago)

I don't want to get killed. But if I had to I would. I figure as long as I don't have to spend the afterlife alone or with a bunch of married couples and I'm like the only single guy (that shit is so fucking lame dude) then it wouldn't be so bad. In fact if I could guarantee that the afterlife would consist of me and one other certain person hanging out together all the time I'd go get killed right now.

― Millar (Millar), Monday, 11 August 2003 04:20 (twenty-three years ago)

rather, i should have said, "getting killed is one thing..."

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Monday, 11 August 2003 11:48 (twenty-three years ago)

If I'm not killed by rock n roll then I'm not dying yet.
