Probably do a lot of drugs, before blowing my brains out.

@GeistInTheMachine drugs, sure, that makes sense, but why would you blow your brains out, its gonna end soon enough any way. ( and the end might be quite a sight to see), like in "the restaurant at the end of the universe" where they sit and watch the end of the world as they eat. ( book 2 of the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy)

@reflectingmonkey I want to die on my own terms. I've already decided that I'm going out that way when I feel it's time. In this scenario, I'd probably be bored or uncomfortable after the drugs wore off, thus the forceful evacuation of cerebral matter from the cranium would be desired.

@GeistInTheMachine I understand the part of leaving on your own terms, I have reflected on this also and might one day ,very far from now, leave on my own terms. but the end of the world is a once in eternity event that I wouldn't want to miss. but, to each his own, I don't judge.

@reflectingmonkey That begs the question: Does it matter if you experience the end of the world, if you won't be around to remember it?

Also, wouldn't the end of the world mean a prolonged and painful death for you personally? It's either that, or you'd die quickly and violently.

Why stick around for that?

@GeistInTheMachine just for the trill of the moment, this whole life, when its over, I probably will not get to remember it, we're just here for the ride, its ok if you wouldn't want to stick around till then end of the world and I'm not trying to say you should be like me, but I sure would be curious to see how it ends and I would ride it till the end. intensity is not what I fear most, mediocrity is what I fear most. when I eating jello and soup in some home with nothing exciting to look forward to, that's when I'm taking the early exit, but the end of the world? bring it on!!
