I'm mostly sure I'll die in a small house next to the ocean.
It will be a warm, breezy day and I'll suddenly yelp out loud,
"Oh no. This doesn't feel right."

And next, I'll be sitting at a table stacked with board games of all varieties.
Laughter from other gamers sitting around the table will fill my ears.
And then, someone will exclaim, "Hey look, we got a n00b at the table!"

That is how we can tell you are a replicant!

I would like to die while riding my bicycle. Doesn't matter much if it is on road, or mountain biking, although I would rather die in the woods then get whacked by some car in a strip mall or something.

There is a week long ride across Iowa every year called RAGBRAI that involves something like 30,000 riders. Every year there are a few weddings, probably a few hundred kids conceived, and a couple of deaths. I can't help but feel like those people had good deaths. I would rather die doing what I love, rather then staring up at florescent lights.

This unit has evolved beyond such simplistic representations.

Given how little luck I've had finding them, I'll be effectively immortal.

Another immortal...and I thought i'd be alone. :)

Well, you certainly are one of a kind.


In bed, of old age, with my last meal consisting of steak, fresh green beans and a baked potato. For my drink, several good glasses of beer and several nice tumblers of scotch.

Or, in a high speed road race like the Nevada Silver State classic.

Cashing out my chips in the Beast at 190 MPH after riding it out as hard as I can for the last 100 miles would be a great way to go as well!

Nah. He's clone 5 of 20.

Yep. One of a kind! No top secret failed joint American-Australian genetic engineering project to clone a supergenius!

Yep. Utterly unique.

Homeland Security, you can stop tapping my phones now.

Not alone, and given enough time I am sure we will all eventually meet.

I would like to die in flagrante delicto.

My plan is to be the one that turns close's Destiny's book, and put out the lights at the end of the universe.

We will all meet at the Gathering to find out who shall claim the Prize. There can be only one.

Given how the story plays out in the many sequels curse my oldest cousin for loaning me those! curse him forever! I'll gladly abdicate my claim.

In the family's lake house, underneath the weeping willow where I've spent every single summer reading since I've known how to hold a book, surrounded by family. Cause of death could be something like an aneurysm (several of those on my mother's side) that kills you quickly, so my grandchildren just see they gramp falling asleep. 85-95 year range seems nice.

What happens after that is God's to decide.

Highlander didn't have any sequels. Not a one. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I recently read an article about an organ in a German church that has been playing a really absurdly long piece of music since 2001 and is expected to finish in 2640.

I have decided that I want to die in that church at end of that piece of music, after I join the crowd there in a standing ovation.

That way, I either enjoy 600+ years of relatively good health (since I can still stand up and applaud at that point) or I get to time travel.

Unfortunately the Daleks, being severe music critics, extreminate the organists, and burn down that church in 2310, so you might want to pick an alternate fixation, especially given what happens to you right afterward.

I shouldn't have said that... so sorry, never mind what I said.

The song isn't all that long, the thing is just that the music sheet says "As slow as possible" and the organist took it literally. If you were to enter the church you would be extremely likely to only hear one note, and that one not even from beginning to end, but just a short fraction in the middle of it.


On some plot of land I own. On November 2nd (day of the dead). It would be cool if there is some family about, and some stargazing available.

Can you believe, someone once tried to tell me some insane story about immortals being aliens, and that Ramirez wasn't completely dead...

Of course I called the authorities, a mind that would think of such things is clearly dangerously unhinged.

Riding a bomb, recreating the final scene from Dr. Strangelove.

(Suprised nobody took this already.)

I plan to live forever.

So far, so good!

Probably because airline seats are uncomfortable enough that no one wants to spend their last moments in anything even remotely resembling air travel.

I want to go quietly like my uncle, the bus driver, not screaming like his passengers.

Darn right. There can be only one. And there were only two Aliens movies, for that matter. And no Crow sequels. :)

As for dying, I want to not leave behind a body that needs to be cleaned up and buried, so I don't really care where, only that it's pretty darn spectacular... Also, not soon. I've still got Avengers movies to see!
