Just Hate Dealing With People Who Dont Get It

[Doktor Howl]

Don't worry TGG if i die, i would like to have an ah-mazing rave party around my open coffin. The music shall be played by Techno Aereo, Cosmic Gate, and Darude. A bit of Blood On the Dance Floor too. 

You mean actual blood, or is that one of these "rock and roll" bands you young punks listen to nowadays?  Why, in MY day, we had LAWRENCE WELK¹, and we LIKED HIM.  Yes, those were the good old days, when children and dogs made horrible noises when you kicked them, and no noises at any other time.  Makes me all nostalgic.


¹  Check him out on youtube.  No, for real.  I was forced to watch that schlockmeister when I was a kid, and I've been scarred ever since.

I'll probably end up putting actual (goat's... maybe...)blood on the dance floor just because. And yes Dok, I have SEEN the horrors that is Lawrence Welk when we went to Canada.

VUNDAFUL, VUNDAFUL!

Anyone who would consent to being killed would not have the right mental stability to give consent.

What about euthanasia?

I'm all for euthanasia, as long as handled by a medical professional and un-endurable enduring suffering* has been established.

* my translation gland is stuck, but those are the two medical criteria doctors in the Netherlands must adhere to before they can do euthanasia. it must be insufferable pain and without reasonable hope of recovery. it's kind of hard to determine suffering of pain in a coma patient, but today I read in the newspaper they have finally devised a kind of 10-point scale which the doctor can use to determine the amount of suffering. if they have less than seven points, the patient is not considered suffering pain but merely comatose and no euthanasia will happen. of course the patient self must have made an agreement for euthanasia with the doctor before loss of consciousness. however, the family does not get to have a say in this.

I'd call it getting a little help.

And some companionship at your last.

What could be more comforting than a pair of warm hands around your throat..?

Think about it

You, shut up. This is not a frivolous subject.

You can't expect a medical professional to do such a thing.

And for OBVIOUS reasons, you can't have a non medical professional perform euthanasia.

Well, in practice you can, but not without expecting them to be tried for murder, of course. Which makes it an incredibly egoistic thing to ask, if say, you insist on being euthanized by having your best friend strangle you. Because you will be dead [if you're lucky and the friend doesn't chicken out at the last point and leaves you with a broken neck, brain damage drooling in a wheelchair for the rest of your life] and autopsy will indicate murder and then there's a good chance your best friend will be jailed. In fact, any best friend agreeing to such a thing without realizing these consequences is probably not mentally stable enough to perform the task anyway.

So instead you have a doctor do it clean and sure.

Oh dear god.  EVERY FUCKING SATURDAY NIGHT BEFORE HEEHAW!!!     AND that was before cable when you only had one fucking tv in the house and 3 fucking stations and I'm pretty sure all three played the same damned thing but I wouldn't know since I wasn't allowed to even touch the fucking TV.

It's why we are the way we are Dok.  I've never gotten the balls to watch a show in slomo to see if there really were subliminal messages flashing between dance numbers.  I don't know that I truly want to know or maybe I know I couldn't handle it if I found out?  Hmmmm... 

[Doktor Howl]

Oh dear god.  EVERY FUCKING SATURDAY NIGHT BEFORE HEEHAW!!! 

Hee Haw was worse than Lawrence Welk by an order of magnitude.

I am now in the hospital because of you Dok. 

Arguably, I had no choice.  It was for SCIENCE.

Euthanasia is ok in my book. I was responding to her obvious blanket statement that it's ok to opt to be a murder victim, which is why I popped the Armin Miewes link in there.  She was advocating for as much in another thread.
