just curios. this thought has been going through my head the last few days. wonder how i'll die- in my sleep, choking on a sandwich, or on the shitter?
i'd like to imagine i'll die during an ill-conceived sex try (as i'll be old, maybe).
or, maybe in a car accident? who knows.

An Internet quiz once told me I'd die with my hand in my pants, watching Star Trek, and I see no reason to dispute that prediction.

But as to how I'll die? I'd rather that stay a mystery. :tongue:

hopefully as a satisfied, old man surrounded by his family & friends when the time comes.
or, death by doing something heroic. i'm all about sacrifice for the right reasons, and if it came down to me or somebody else living, i'd like to think that i'd choose to do what i could to make sure that they made it. this is, of course, highly dependent on the situation, but i think my wife and daughter would understand if it wasn't about doing something stupid but more so doing the right thing.
i used to think i'd be dead already, but over the last few years my whole outlook on life has changed and there really is a lot to live for as long as you make the most of it.

That's what he claimed.
His "fiance" has been telling me for weeks now that he abuses her, but she is afraid to move out. I have offered to help her out when she's ready to leave, but otherwise backed away from that mess. She now has plenty of information about resources related to domestic abuse, restraining orders, and how to deal with stalkers, but only she can decide when she wants to leave.

You gave her the information. Don't do anything else, or have anything else to do with her. If you do, you're just enabling and continuing to subject yourself to this codependent, exploitative and emotionally abusive relationship.
Seriously, Shell... the anger management class helped you. Do yourself a favor and go take a class on codependence.

I'll probably end up dead.
I'll probably die of exhaustion. I work 60-80 hours a week. I have a family. I do volunteer work. Usually operate on < 5 hrs of sleep a night.
Thank God for coffee!
I'm just not gonna try anymore.That sounds like the title to a great country & western song.
I always used to say I'd probably be run over by a car while riding bike, since that's my primary means of transportation spring, summer, & fall. But I'm getting old enough now that things like heart disease and so on are becoming more probable with each passing year.

Me too, and probably a lot younger than is "acceptable". My close friends and family will grieve and wish it did not turn out that way. But alot of others will do the holier than thou Donald Trump type disparage "I have never smoked a cigarette, never a drop of alcohol, not one sip of coffee. Didn't waste my time on the internets. But I do enjoy the company of beautiful women, have multiple children with different mothers, am relentless in business deals and will divorce/file bankruptcy at the drop of a hat, made all my billions honestly, including scooping up every subsidy, bailout and tax dodge I could, etc, etc. And I did not die like that idiot"
