How do you want to be executed?

BTW, here’s a list (from Amnesty International, admittedly) listing the methods of execution used worldwide…make sure to check out Sudan. :eek:

I’ve given this some more thought. I’d like to be taken to a carnival, given a nitroglycerin high colonic, then put on the Tilt-A-Whirl. So long as it’s done in a dignified manner.

No, wait, I can’t get past that whole high colonic thing (yuck). OK, I want to be beaten to death by the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders, but I want them to use toaster ovens to do the job. Wait, not toaster ovens…defrosted Butterball turkeys. Yeah, that’s it.

And I want that Benny Hill music playing in the background, the stuff they played when he was getting chased around by all the people he had just pissed off.

strapped to a chair with about 1000 lbs of TNT detonated around it!

I’ll take Lethal Injection, but only if they substitute an overdose of some powerful opiate for the usual stuff.

How about a pressure chamber. 4-5 atmospheres and then sudden decompression. Implode!

RealityChuck We park our cars in the same garage my friend. A garage packed full of topless babes on rollerskates, that is!

Definitely the firing squad, mainly because I’d want to be standing up for my execution. I would have one question, though: What exactly did I do to warrant this? I mean, if it’s about that mattress label…

I’ll go with jumping out of an airplane without a parachute. A long exciting fall with a fantastic view, followed by a very brief splut.

Riding a bomb Major Kong style into Carrot Top.

Hell, I’d be happy to give my life to rid the world of the true Red Menace.

Bullet to the head. Quick and painless. By that point I will not give a shit about the mess.

I would like to be tickle-tortured to death. I came into this world screaming hysterically and squirming; why not go out the same way?

:smiley:

Bruce Willis had it right in Armageddon.

As I noted in the capital punishment thread linked in the OP, the manner in which the firing squad choice works–at least in Utah–is you sit in a chair with a hood over your head while the shooters fire at you from a separate room through holes in the wall.

I would choose the firing squad, but not like that, thank you very much. I’d have to be standing up (blindfold is OK, but not a stuffy hood). And i’ll take that last cigarette–it’s not like smoking is going to kill me now. :stuck_out_tongue:

And if you’re wondering why we’re all getting the death penalty, read Kafka’s The Trial. We’re all living under a death sentence–such is life.

Come over to my house at Halloween. I’ve got the whole set up.

Firing squad.

See, I always thought Firing Squad. But then I think I’d like to be guillotined, with the premise of giving feedback after my disembodiment. Just think, how metaphoric, messing with the very system that just killed your sorry ass.

Firing squad. As long as it’s the movie type firing squad complete with the whole “Blindfold? Cigarette?” thing.
