    Just seen some berk in america has been sentenced to death, and gets to choose the method of his demise.

    Gas chamber, leccy chair, lethal injection, hanging or firing squad. He plumped for electric chair.

    It's a tough one. My head says lethal injection, but it feels a bit meek and cowardly. My heart says electric chair - go out in a fiery blaze of glory. Or maybe the bloody spectacle of a firing squad.

    Which method would you pick, and why?

    Old age. Is that an option?

    Having watched "The Green Mile", I wouldn't pick the lecky chair.

    I'd take being hanged, drawn and quartered, because I'm not a pussy.

    I'll smile as they emasculate me and cut out my intestines and whistle God Save the Queen.

    I'd like to be tied to a railway line, or forced to eat Wetherspoons "food"

    Reminds of the Woody Allen line from, I think, Love and Death... "I'm facing the firing squad at 08.00 tomorrow morning. It was supposed to be 06.00, but I had a good lawyer"

    Choosing the favoured method of execution? What sort of crack pot, lily-livered, lefty country sets this rule? Don’t give the scumbag any choice at all, let the victim or their family chose. Can’t beleive Trump allows this insanity.

    I'd prefer it if you shouted out FREEDOM whilst they did that please.

    Surely there's no competition? Guillotine all the way.

    If I had to go in a non-peaceful way, I've always fancied being absolutely obliterated in a massive explosion.

    You can't even fit a finger under the plastic guide to align the paper for a straight edge, let alone deliver a fatal blow. Probably easier with a stapler.

    Lethal injection is a pretty nasty way to go, actually. The cocktails frequently go wrong and the condemned has suffered for multiple hours in some cases, able to feel the entire thing.

    Firing squad is the messiest, but probably the least painful and least likely to go wrong overall.

    Messy isn't a problem if YOU don't need to clear it up. In fact it's like scoring the last goal in injury time to only lose 6-1.

    One like for Lloyd, two for Woody.

    Careless Whisper, surely.

    I doubt, when being eviscerated, you could muster more than a whisper & I bet you wouldn’t care less.

    With a particularly long & chewy baguette as the entree.

    I don’t recommend the hole punch.

    Remember to keep the basement door locked when you have visitors.

    A comforting analogy & a happy nod to our friends at Muff.

    I've changed my mind.

    Donkey punch.

  31. If he was in England, and JRM had his way, he could have been strapped to the business end of a canon.

    Personally I'd go for death by rum - preferably Bundaberg rum, and lots of it.

    We never get penalties, so this thread doesn't really apply to us.

    Definitely firing squad with a blindfold on and a cigar hanging out of the corner of my mouth.

    Plenty of good Filipino rum. No need for a beeline to the Aussie stuff.
