    Dying.

    No matter who we are, we all do it, in the end.

    From this list, if you had to pre determine your own demise, which way would you elect to go?

    I went for the first option.

    Seems better than getting so old, that you lose all your faculties, returning to almost baby state, in some cases.

    Seems better than suffering from something that has you thinking about it, all the time.

    Fighting for my country, but if I had a choice I would fight Raiden from Mortal Kombat.

    That's how you would want to die?

    Being killed in some operation that has likely been ordered by men of dubious intent?

    What makes you different from a radical Muslim that wishes to fight for Islam - literally?

    If I were terminally ill and suffering, I would want increasing dosages of morphine and my family around me.

    I thought this was entirely hypothetical and we would be engaged in a war that threatened the country. Regardless, my job is to provide support for the guys on the ground. Whatever the circumstances for the war may be, I would gladly die for any of the people I serve with. What makes me different from them? I am not murdering innocent people at will and trying to promote fear.

    I get that.

    But you would choose this over dying with your wife, kids, etc?

    Does the idea of your own mortality cause you concern?

    What's up with you? Are you suicidal? If so, please let me speak to you. I am still crushed by the death of my baby brother.

    I'm never going to die. My life's work will be figuring out how to make a robot that functions on brain waves so I can stick my head in a jar and attach it to a robot when my body fails.

    Fair enough.

    Maybe you would reconsider if/when you did/do.

    I chose without pain. The dying part doesn't bother me, it's the pain part of dying that I would rather do without.

    Having a kid does not make me any less of an officer. I am sure my husband would manage well without me.

    Would you sooner take your own life, than die a long and painful death?

    No, but it makes a man more of a dad.

    That matters.

    A lot.

    For me, fighting for that, would mean more to me than fighting in a conflict that was decided by rich elites.
