Holy hell. Imagine moving to a new area with a new job. You're starting over, and bam, you're dead because you moved 2 doors down from an 8 year old psychopath who kills you in your sleep.
He never even knew
That's the way I wanna go. Surrounded by family and loved ones? No thanks. Random execution by some kid from the neighbourhood is my jam. I never want to see it coming, though tbf, that's mostly the case.
Right?
Every day I wake up to the sounds of birds chirping, my beautiful wife snoring lightly next to me, and the feeling an overly attached heeler pressed against my legs, and all I can think is ‘Ah, fuck. I’ve woken up again.’
Pfft, sounds like you can fix the snoring problem, even in america without insurance, by having an american 7 year old neighbor. Damn, I love america.
Thats a pretty good way to go. I think I will take stray bullet from school shooter. Just be walking by the school and get hit, bleed out slowly, and die in the ambulance. Later on conspiracy nuts will claim I am still alive and was a crisis actor.
RIP Omar
