I think for me, its either:

(Ranked by most to least likely)

  1. Heart Attack
  2. Suicide (Probably by Jumping)
  3. Hit by a vehicle
  4. Murdered by a family member

    The way the world is going, it could be anything from starvation this decade to the eventual heat death of the universe.

    I don’t expect heart disease will be the death sentence it is now in a few decades, barring a local or global collapse of civilisation.

    Heart attack, stroke, blood clot, or bleeding out. Being on blood thinners, I’d say those are probably likely things that will kill me.

      Generally speaking, people are bad at understanding the odds/chances of something in the real world applying to them.

      Everyone should be terrified of cancer, it’s the #1 killer. But nobody puts it on their list because it either feels obvious, or by not giving it the time of day people feel like they won’t “get it”. This sort of response from people is normal.

      With that said, they specifically call out the way they’re going to commit suicide, so yeah, you’re still right to ask they’re doing ok…

            Problem is if you work in IT long enough you aren’t mild mannered anymore because of how dumb people are and how no one listens to you.

      I wanted to agree but then I remembered my last scooter accident had nothing to do with a bad car driver and everything to do with me getting distracted by dogs and crashing into a fence. Thankfully for everyone else and myself I stick to bike trails and try not to venture into real traffic.

    Thankfully for me, suicide are far down my list. I hope. Going to a professional to get my headspace sorted is definitely worth it. It would be no. 1, 3 years ago.

    I’d rate heart attack as most likely, and other blood circulation related disease. Any obesity related affliction too. Cancer is in there somewhere high since I have family members with some kind of cancer.
