Suicide Is Painless, Unless You Screw It Up
Believe it or not, suicide isn’t always a lot of fun. It can tear apart families and scar loved ones for years to come, fortunately you’ll be too dead to care! These days there are so many ways to off oneself that it’s not always easy to keep abreast of the hot new trends in felo-de-se.
Even those of us who aren’t (currently) suicidal harbor thoughts of self-destruction, it’s as natural as jerkin’ it with a plastic bag over your head while you sit on a cattle prod. But what would be the most befitting way for you to shuffle loose the mortal coil? Everyone has had their own opinions dating back to 1942 when suicide was invented by young wordsmith William Shakespeare. His early visions of Ophelia’s relaxing soak in the creek and Romeo’s power-nap set the tone for the future of the game. Since then quitters the world over have expanded on these simple methods and thrown in their own special flair. So if you had a good run and were ready to call it a life how would you want to do the deed?
I’ll go ahead and kick off the draft with my first selection: Making friends with the ground!
As usual, we’ve got some rules. Follow them or your death may not be so optional.
1. You may not draft jump off of the bridge at Cornell, because that’s totally played out
2. Draft one method of death at a time
3. Wait a full ten picks in between draft picks
4. UPDATE: Must be PLAUSIBLE methods. Fucked to death by Angelina Jolie ain’t happenin’, pal.
If you are honestly suicidal you probably shouldn’t partake in this exercise or watch pre-season football.

I am going to go with intravenous cocaine overdose. Shit loads of euphoria for about 20 seconds then my heat explodes

I think there’s a certain elegance in lighting some candles, throwing on “It’ll End In Tears,” crafting an eloquent note, stripping naked and then swallowing a bullet while hunched over on the crapper.

Unprotected sex (and lots of it)with Lindsay Lohan … death is inevitable thereafter.
August 10th, 2007 at 11:49 am
I’m packing an SUV with explosives and then driving it into the dead middle of the Joe Louis Arena during a Red Wings game. When I get to the faceoff circle, I’m detonating.
Because if I’m going out I’m taking a whole lot of you hockeytown douchebags with me.
August 10th, 2007 at 11:51 am
1) Strap bomb to self.
2) Run to the middle of the 50 yard line during Ohio State’s Spring practice.
3) Detonate bomb.

wow james, you could have just said “that sign from die hard 3″
August 10th, 2007 at 11:55 am
Or James could have ben more creative and gone for the “i’d be a daredevil like in kentucky fried movie” route. but whatever, captain subtle.
August 10th, 2007 at 11:55 am
Fall on my sword, the Roman way.
The manly death would wipe away any accusations of cowardice for offing myself in the first place.
August 10th, 2007 at 11:56 am
Seriously, james, NOIS is about to get all up in that ass.
August 10th, 2007 at 11:58 am

I’d jump out of an airplane from about 8,000 feet without a parachute.
I’d have one helluva ride on the way down- flips, twists, possibly masturbation.
And it wouldn’t hurt when I hit the ground.

August 10th, 2007 at 12:09 pm
if the Angelina Jolie rule was written to apply to my draft pick - I would counter that Lindsay Lohan *would* fuck me to death if I provided enough coke/ecstacy/fake movie offers.

I’d have to go with a heroin overdose. That’s supposed to be a great high.
August 10th, 2007 at 12:20 pm
I’ll just go with the old rock star standby of drinking too much until I choke on my own vomit.
August 10th, 2007 at 12:21 pm
I would take an ungodly amount of blood thinners and then i would fornicate w/the hottest women until my undercarriage started bleeding at which point it would not stop. Game Over.

damn. I was just about to submit: wearing a Redskins jersey to an Eagles home game. I barely escaped with my life the last time (and the Skins lost…I can’t imagine the carnage if they won).
derrick beat me to the concept.
I’ll jus go with joining the army.
August 10th, 2007 at 12:37 pm
I concur UZH and as soon as I saw the draft topic I leaped at the oppurtunity. Although I consider myself more a hardcore kid than a metal head (when I was in college I got reemed out about the differences)
That whole album is the balls.

I have been advised by my attorney to take down my previous post that involved a certain leader of the Free World. That being said, I would now like to change my answer to freezing to death. Boring? Yes. Painless? Probably.

Step 2: Repeat.

Rent a Hummer and head out to the Turnpike.
Asshole blocking the box at the Holland Tunnel? Bam. Douchebag turning left from the right lane? Bam. Fucknut driving 65 in the left lane? Bam, bam, backup, bam.
If I made it out of there, I’d head into the city for a little game I’d like to call Yellow Cab Derby. Eventually, I’d get plugged by New York’s Angriest.

Wait, does smoking count? If so I’m already doing that.
August 10th, 2007 at 1:31 pm
I would climb to the top of a very large metropolitan building during rush hour. Attached to my back would be 40 foot bungie cord. Attached to my neck would be a 35 foot noose made of steel cable. I would Get an Erection by watching the 2006/2007 Rex Grossman highlight film. I would then pull my cock out of my pants. Then i’d super glue my hands to my face similar to Macauly Caulkin in homealone. I’d then jump off the building. When i hit the 35 foot mark the steel cable would decapitate me leaving my lifeless corpse bungie jumping while performing felatio on myself.
been talking about this for years

Go for a walk in my neighborhood after about 1AM.

I’d lock myself in a room and gorge myself to death on Jimmy Dean Pancakes n’ Sausage on a stick. It’s breakfast, corn-dog style. It’s also incredibly, incredibly sad.

Frank Pentangili style…

I’d strangle my wife and kid and then hang myself from a weight machine … wait thats been done already … shit.

Well fine, I’m jumping off the Brooklyn Bridge then. At least it won’t be a long walk to get there.

Rocking myself to death. Quite how I’m supposed to accomplish this with Alex Lifeson succumbing to Alex Lifeson disease and Spinal Tap not being real is another matter altogether.
August 10th, 2007 at 7:29 pm
To clarify, I think rocking myself to death would work best were I to stick my head inside an amp and have someone rock out until my brain turned to mush. Also whoa whoa Calvin uncool. You just stole that from bash.org, for shame. Also I can’t spell shame, it kept coming out as sgame.
August 11th, 2007 at 9:16 am
i’d hire a hitman on myself and spend the rest of my days in an exciting game of cat and mouse…and thats only if i’m not allowed to fuck angelina jolie to death
August 11th, 2007 at 6:32 pm
@ calvin - so if you’re watching the rex grossman highlight film to get a chubby, then you’re a colts fan, right?
OK…I’m piggybacking on a few others here, but here’s something I’ve always wanted to do that’ll probably get me killed -
I’m breaking into an army base and stealing a tank. Then I’m driving it around for maximum carnage until they finally get me.
And there’s only 2 ways to stop a guy driving a tank.
1. Blow it the fuck up.
2. Wait until the dumbass gets it stuck and then open hatch.
When the latter happens, I’m pulling the pin on a grenade while inside.
August 11th, 2007 at 6:33 pm
pick a fight with pac-man and his peoples in the back of a strip club. obviously. how did I steal that one with the 96th pick?
August 12th, 2007 at 5:31 pm
all these cool ways to die and we are all probably gonna die from liver/lung cancer in our 60’s. so…fucking…lame.
