Today marks the 6 month anniversary of my friend's death.
So I'll be giving away a bundle of DLCs for his favorite game: Payday 2.
Why is this giveaway for LVL 0 while you've been giving away games to higher lvls? Because my friend was a kind man and would've wanted for everyone to have a chance. This is just something to keep his memory alive.
(If you want to just enter the giveaway, then I'd suggest stopping reading right here, good luck)
It's funny actually, 2 days before the day he passed away, we were talking about how each of us was going to die and what should be played at our funerals. It was just to deliver some comedic burns and overall banter. We just did stuff like that. Anyway, as a fan of Miracle of Sound, he wanted this to be played on his funeral. They did.
You might be thinking why I'm saying "They did" instead of "We did". Well, the reason is that he lived in the UK. Me, being an estonian, couldn't afford to attend his funeral. We were just some dumb buggers on Skype, Steam and Teamspeak. It's funny, isn't it? People say that it's ridiculous for a person to have a proper relationship (friendly, romantic or otherwise) and this is now my argument to show that it is possible to have great friends through the Internet.
For all who read this, thank you. (Sorry for rambling a lot)
To have some kind of a fun environment here, let's take something dark and grim and turn it into something fun and happy!
Question is this: What's the most plausible humorous way you think you could die in?
My answer would be this: I'm about 60-70, I've had a fairly monotonous life doing something repetitive. One day a customer service rep throws me over the edge and I go on a rampage with a segway. I knock over all of the plant pots and mildly inconvenience all the visitors. The mall security surrounds me... I jump off my segway, strip naked and run for dear life, high up on coke or something most likely. A security guard tases me and I die of a heart attack.
Was that too morbid? Aww hell nah! :D
Here's to you Jonathan!
I'm sorry for your loss, there are lots of internet friendships out there. Some endure, some don't but you always know when it was worth.

I'm very sorry for your loss... I've just listened that song for the first time, it's beautiful and I'm glad they carried that wish through.
I've wanted since I was a teenager to have played A tout le monde by Megadeth. Following your request I guess I could have a heart attack at the top of an electric escalator on a Sale's day at the mall and may my body roll over a whole bunch of people there (lol).

Our deaths must always be a minor nuisance to everyone! :D

RIP Jonathan!
And you were a true friend to him, internet friends really do exist and can be very meaningful!
Miracle of Sound is great, you both have/had great taste!
Keep the memory of your friend alive!
I hate to think of my own dead, so can't come up with some hilarious hypothatical way I would see myself dying in.

Fair enough. I know it sounds a bit insensitive and grim. We just used to do that quite a bit and I think he'd be happy to see people play it too! :)

o7 Jonathan.
For me - I want to explode in to a cloud of pink mist. I don't know how it would happen - jumping on a grenade or stepping on a land mine... But however it happens - I don't want any 2 of my molecules to be touching when it is over. I want to be spread out completely - talk about stress free. Completely relaxed... and, you know, dead. But still - no stress. :D

So you want to go diving as deep as possible and get squished by the pressure? Roleplaying as Aquaman will do it! :D

A humorous death? Heart attack after getting head shot ingame as a cranky old geezer in a retirement home.

Relationships certainly are possible through internet only. But I'm sure eventually you want it to grow more as with everything. Even if it is small things. Sadly old generations prevent these kind of relationships to flourish easily. But not gonna get into this too deeply. Glad that you had some nice experiences to remember. :)
Another nice thing to do is share for everyone out there. Even if the poor people gets shrouded over with many "bad" people that this community hates. Props for you.
As to how to die. It would be by my own choosing after living decades in form or another due uses of science. Although realistically this aint possible during our lifetime but this wasn't about realistic views right? :P
