I'm pretty sure carbonmonoxide is the least unpleasant way to die. You fall asleep, then unconscious, and then you asphyxiate without ever triggering the asphyxiation panic, because that triggers from nerve cells measuring blood CO2 and O2 levels, and is finetuned by lung stretching nerve cells. Yyou are breathing normally, you get enough O2 in your blood (just not attached to the haemoglobine), and your CO2 if anything is low rather than high, so you shouldn't notice CO poisoning.

I think the cross is a way to terrify the populace, that the person on the cross eventually dies is relatively unimportant. A cross is a terror-tool, it is state terrorism.

Playing Plague, inc has taught me that the olympics are a great way to spread the plague you are playing as.

Yeah, but that's cheap and there's not enough punishment involved, so good luck getting a state to adopt that as a method.

My thoughts exactly! Why are you telling me about organ music and not letting me listen to it?

The myth of American exceptionalism and the truth just keep getting further apart.

Televised capital punishment would have great ratings, though. "Monday Night Execution, with Steve Bannon! Brought to you by Remington Arms and Public Service Electric and Gas!"

The MSM was so busy talking about everything Trump did in terms of the horse race between Trump and the democrats, they never grappled with what an awful human being he has always been.

Yeah, but that takes too long so the victim may panic while you're waiting for them to fall asleep.

Does it take long? I have no idea how long it takes. I've only ever heard of people trying to kill themselves by inhaling exhaust fumes and that is obviously not a mixture of 80% CO and 20% oxygen, which I would use until they fell asleep and then I'd crank it to 100% CO.

The GOP knew precisely what he was when it nominated Trump as its presidential candidate.

I wish the OKC bomber had lived long enough to have his "accomplishment" (he held the US terrorist attack record for a while) wiped out in 9/11.

He went out thinking he was hot stuff.

Just keep fucking that chicken!

Hillary lost because she couldn't articulate a message that got out the vote, not because a handful of people voted for Jill Stein.

The vast majority of people on the left who voted in 2016 voted for Hillary. Yes, they held their noses while they did it. Sorry we weren't sufficiently enthusiastic about a candidate from the wing of the party that's been telling us to fuck ourselves for 30 years.
