Let's say you were approached by some Russians. They offer you one million dollars, but the catch is if you turn 70, you will forcibly be drowned in a bowl of diahrrea shit by europeans. Microchips will be involved so don't get fancy.
-
Yes, but by the time I turn 70 I'll have something to fight them off with.
-
If I'm going to be drowned in a bowl of diarrhea, am I really going to care who is doing it?
-
If this hypothetical assumes that there is a 100% chance I will make it to age 70 and be killed in this manner (meaning any suicide attempts made at age 69 fail), then there is no way.
-
A million dollars doesn't impress me. I've already earned over that in my lifetime, and I'm not near seventy yet.
Most people will earn over a million in their life. Thanks to the miracle of government inflation, we're all millionaires now!
-
A million ain't enough.
-
let's assume you meant to type something impressive, like a BILLION.
I'm nearly 40. So that'd be 30 years of kickass life, and a crappy (ha ha) end. I could just get drunk and doped up, the drowning would be smelly but quick and painless.
Probelm is, I have to consider that my Dad is 85 years old and still going strong. The fastest-growing demographic is the over 100 age group. Assuming I live to be 85 or 90, I'd be throwing away 15-20 years of otherwise reasonably decent life.
I'm sorry, even 10 billion might not be enough for that. I'd need godlike powers, to the point where I know I'd be bored of existence by age 70. Like, I want to be able to change my name to Usul, kill with a word, end all wars, cure cancer, be a sex god, fly, and play a perfect game of pitfall. PLUS your 10 billion dollars.
Then, I'm in.

I would make sure that I was in a federal prison when I turned 70 so they couldn't get to me, HA HA
-
This thread is retarded.

I'd take it.

Hmmm. I read it not as "(drowned in diarrhea) by Europeans", but as "drowned in (diarrhea shat by Europeans)".
Regardless, no combination of goods and services is worth certain death to me, because I plan to live as long as possible. But I would take the deal if it included options to fight off or otherwise avoid said drowning.
-
No, drowning is a shitty way to go. I know, having nearly done it just the regular way once.
There is a "two girls and a cup" joke in here some where but I do not have the time to flesh it out. You up for it BJ?
-
LMAO yeah I would take because by the time im 70 I will probably be use to rolling around in my own diarrhea and I will be ready to die!!
-
If this involved being dunked in diarrhea while I hold my breath for <60 seconds - sure, I'd do it any time, and for even less money. A nice hot shower, scraping off a few layers of skin, shaving off all my hair - no problem.
If this involves committing to being killed when I'm old - hell no, not even if the sum of money is in the billions (one million is a joke nowadays), not even if the age of assured death is 80 or 90. You never know what medical advances science will bring - instead of a few years of bad health you might be giving up a chance for a hundred years of better quality of life than you enjoy today!
-
No, I presume that Viagra will still be available in one way or another.
I visualized a version of waterboarding that uses pitchers of shit instead of water. That would only "simulate" drowning in shit. That might qualify as a browm shower.
Might be the next viral video.
