Ten Possible Ways to Die

Mood:

Uninspired

The idea for this meme came to me when I was reflecting that I’d probably end up dying from eczema if I kept eating chocolate.
Thus, this bizzarre …thing.  Marvel at the weirdness. Ten Possible Ways to Die
(in no particular order):

1. I could run into a wall really fast. (Don’t laugh. I ran into a pole last week, quite forcefully …the inside of my mouth got beat up and it now ulcerated, and my nose is still sore when I touch it. The optometrist says all the study I’ve done has temporarily messed up my eyes.)

2. The computer could electrocute me.

3. My knee could jam while I’m walking down the stairs. (It’s been doing that lately… I have to hook my fingers under the edge of the kneecap and wiggle it. Ugh.)

4. I could strangle myself in the night by falling asleep before turning off my walkman and taking off my headphones.

5. I could catch that incredibly deadly-painful-etcetera-parasite that lives in water that the optometrist told me about when he explained why I shouldn’t rinse my eyes out with tap water.

6. My father could spontaneously do the Darth Vader telekinetic-throttling-thing because I drove him to the edge.

7. I could fail my exams and commit hara-kiri.

8. I could bleed to death from severe eczema. That’ll teach me to eat things that give me that particular allergic reaction. *stares at red hands balefully* Huh. I refuse to stop eating chocolate.

9. Two words: sleep deprivation. I hate school term. And insomnia.

10. Random axe-murderer.
