So many chose neither..maybe I should have made it the only choice..?

@Hitchens Good idea.

Scaredy cat ?

@Hitchens I believe if I knew either it would ruin the actual life I am living, which would be stupid....

No Faustian bargain...no quid pro quo..you get nothing in return..not even an everlasting gobstopper...nada..zilch...

Let's just say the Grim Reaper..magically appears..and just offers you one answer or the other..no strings attached..and he asks you for nothing in return...and you get nothing .

Also the particulars of how you die are set in stone..as is the date.

I would choose when...the how is irrelevant really since you can't change it...

But Death will probably leave you alone because of your namesake..you would give him too much of a hard time....

Mordant:

caustic, trenchant, biting, cutting, acerbic, sardonic, sarcastic, scathing, acid, sharp, keen, tart, pungent, stinging, astringent, incisive, devastating, piercing, rapier-like

???

@Hitchens Mordant is also a dye fixative. Ideas that stay with you is the concept. Hopefully, only edgy in a good way.

@mordant

Yes..lol..I did see that...but I elected to presume you identified more with rapier like wit..and trenchant caustic scepticism..than having an innate skill at the undoubtedly useful skill of dye fixing..???

But yes only edgy in a good way..the ideas and exchanges do stay with me..✔

Agreed..death can make even the most curious..lose interest.

Yes..I reckon how is probably almost irrelevant...unless you can figure out if it could be avoided..but that would be cheating...and it would be frowned upon to cheat death..?

@Hitchens "When" can clue me in if it's probably accidental or health/age related. I also need time to arrange my estate appropriately.

@SkotlandSkye

Eh ..yea..so it says here that you will die in a brutal cooking accident..involving Thai cuisine..
Also you will leave your entire estate including any cats you may own to..em..oh to me..I'm just as surprised as anyone...??
.
??

@Hitchens well.....I don't believe in pet cats....so....maybe the rattie roommate? LOL

@SkotlandSkye

Oh..well the crystal ball was a little cloudy..yea...now that you mention it..it could have been a rattie room-mate what is not pulling their weight..and robs your ingredients out of the fridge...yes that's it..?

Oh dear...maybe there is still time to avoid that..??

@Hitchens Working on it! Cardiac things run strong on both sides of my "pedigree".

@Qualia

Ok..well just get regular check-ups..get plenty of excersise ..watch your diet..and keep an eye on it.

You'll be fine.

Yep..gives us...time to start ticking those Bucket list boxes..?✔

Yeah, it woudl be great to be able to attend your own wake.

Thanks Funeral Girl..appropriate name for this morbid dilemma..?...it could be good news..in that you may outlive your cats!
...or you may trip over one..and die from the fall..?

Since you get it free or at cost, pick a good one. They will have to put me in a hefty bag. Maybe l will be able to afford a double bag. ☺

@Sticks48 i know, i want something with a bar haha!

@Funeralgirl lol... Even if l get the really big bag there won't be room for a bar. I will have to settle for a bottle of decent scotch.

@Sticks48 i will make sure you get a nice box with a bar!! stick with me.

@Funeralgirl Thank you that is very sweet. ☺

Me too..but it has occoured to me..that if you knew how...you may be able to avoid it...?

@Hitchens If you knew the day tho, you can't change that, just what you do beforehand.

@Qualia

Actually you're correct...its set in stone..hmm better that way.

No...you must answer..or a thousand flees will infest your armpits.

Me too.
