Think back to the time before you were born. It’ll be just like that.

Banging out super quick via massive coke fueled heart attack whilst on top of a 19 yo hooker remains the dream...

"A salesman is got to dream, boy."
I'll almost certainly head home when I retire, and possibly earlier if I land a job that allows me to do so.
But its not quite running and away and hiding. If I still have fitness at all, Iceland would be a good get-away option. While I still can, if I still can.

That's what I imagine its like.
Once you pass past the pain into unconscious then it'll just be like your asleep.
Seems more peaceful thinking of it like that

I'm waiting for the day I hear the big C word as both my parents had it.
Reincarnation wouldn't be so bad.
Without the brain firing there won't be any dreaming. Just fade to black. I actually do hope there is an afterlife. I was in a pretty big car accident and lucky not to die. I was unconscious for a bit but, yeah, nothing.
My pop died from a heart attack mowing the lawn and my uncle from washing a car. My Dad had a big one after doing some gardening but fortunately survived. So I plan on just being lazy as I get older!

And never get up on the roof, especially if you’re home alone. Neighbour of a friend came home to find the body of her husband who had fallen off the roof.

I'd add to that do anything with power tools- a guy at my old school was doing maintenance work.. actually in our faculty office/classrooms over the holidays. He slipped, and the drill or whatever he was using, made contact with him. He was so lucky he didnt bleed out and die.
But yeah he was on his own.. someone must have come past eventually and raised the alarm.

Schools during the holidays or report writing day are very lonely places actually. Always gave me the creeps, especially after that case of the teacher being raped and murdered in a cleaners closet in NSW. Just.... there are no words. If im on my own in my office on those days, i'd lock myself in.

I'm a bit obsessed with mowing my lawn and cleaning my car so it would s**t me to death all through an afterlife if I carked it halfway through the job. The missus would chuckle at the irony though.
Anything tbh. Like we'd even know it's happened

Ive heard freezing is sort of peaceful as in it just slows your heart rate til you get sleepy and just drift off.

Freezing may be ok. Drowning is something completely different tho would be horrible. Hanging looks swift but they have the potential to go horribly wrong too

do you think that in a few decades they'll have bionics etc. so we'll live much longer than say, eighty?

Amortal?
"Unable to die from disease or age. Immortal if no physical ailment befalls you."
Saw some speculation a while back about whether the first amortals have already been born.
But I also read some time ago speculation about sapiens bodies having a theoretical maximum age. I think it was about 120?
Maybe they figure out that lobster DNA gene that regenerates tissue as new, not aged replicas like happens now, and that solves that?
Dunno. Not my bag, so talking shite.
