11. Been there, done that |
|
Stabbed felt worse, but shot was more scary. Of course, I was a kid when I got shot.

12. What kind of question is this? |
|
I'd rather be neither shot nor stabbed.

13. Are these really my only choices? |
|
Can't I pick something like "died in the midst of having sex", or "died from shock after winning the lottery"? Yuck.

19. You don't necessarily |
|
Edited on Fri Apr-09-04 08:13 PM by Book Lover
die after being shot or stabbed once.
on edit: I voted for getting shot, not that I'm exactly sure why. I have this idea that a stab wound is more immediately life-threatening due to blood loss and potential wound size.

23. Immediately? Maybe. Cumulatively? I don't think so, really. |
|
When a bullet hits a soft target it can have a tendency to tumble and twist, and that does a lot of internal damage. However, I'd still like more choices.

15. I want to first be stabbed.. |
|
then while writhing around, shot in a painful spot .. say like the shin or something really awfule... then maybe hacked up a little with the claw side of a hammer, then maybe runned over by a slow moving jeep, then have a wicked street queen claw my eyes out with fake nails..
ok, wtf, it's easter - let do this right, go ahead and scourge me and nail me to a cross for good measure.

16. Do you die in either scenario? |
|
I've already voted, but I guess other people would want to know.

18. There's no way of knowing |
|
you don't know what kind of gun it is, what kind of knife it is, or where you will be shot or stabbed.

See I thought it was more of a "what kind of way to die" question.

22. would rather not be shot by a Uniped... |
|
"One morning Karlsefni and his men saw something glittering on the far side of the clearing, and they shouted at it. It moved, and it proved to be a Uniped; it came bounding down towards where the ship lay. Thorvald, the Red's son, was sitting at the helm. The Uniped shot an arrow into his groin.
Thorvald pulled the arrow out and said, 'This is a rich country we have found; there is plenty of fat in my entrails.' Soon afterward he died of the wound. The Uniped ran off to the north. Karlsefni and his men gave chase, catching occasional glimpses of it as it fled. Then it disappeared into a creek and the pursuers turned back.
They sailed away north and thought they could see Uniped-Land; but they decided not to risk the lives of the crew any further. Finally they reached Greenland, and spend the winter with Eirik the Red." :bounce:
from Eirik's Saga written in 1260 A.D...
