Pretty simple question, and I'd imagine most of us have thought about it. So far I've come up with quick, painless, and broke the day after my passing. I'd prefer to avoid the gloom of prolonged sickness. I think passing in your sleep seems the most appealing.

What have you thought - too dark? too scary? Just don't want to think about it - all the alternatives suck?

I'd like to die peacefully in my sleep, just like Grampa did. Not like his screaming passengers, as he drove over the cliff....

I'd like to be rejoined with my dogs and horses. Hopefully heaven has great trout streams and fields of pheasants.

What about incidentals, like mistaken identity?

I want to be the first person in recorded history to be killed by a meteor. That would be cool.

Put through a wood chipper while still fully conscious.

How cool would that be?

How about getting creamed by a falling satellite, ala "Rick" in Northern Exposure?

let me think about this.

some trajectory needs to be in the picture.

there i am, all nice & comfy in the oak casket.

here i am, looking at the scene from afar, way afar.

so, how do i get from here to there? is there a path?

should i be buried with a golden cross? a knife? a gun?

and perhaps far more importantly for the funeral attendees

did the funerary people do a really good job with presentation?

I detest ' viewing' dead bodies laying in a fancy box. I avoid it all when I can.

I don't really care. It will happen in the way and time of the Lords choosing. Going to leave it up to him. It would be nice to go in a way that left any parts that someone else might need in good enough shape that they can be utilized.

Sorta like the Blue Pill warning, "Ask your doctor if it's safe for you to have sex?" If he says no that's an option.

I'd like to skip the dying part and exit by rapture.

Barring that, I don't think there is a good way to die. I would prefer to just go to sleep peacefully and somehow never wake up. Definitely want to avoid dying in a fire or being eaten alive by wild animals or stung to death by bees, jellyfish, etc.
