All of us are probably familiar with the line form Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley’s Musical, song and book using it as the title. Most of us aren’t quite ready for our final curtain call quite yet. But if that fateful day ever dawns when you do know it is time, when you do want them to stop the world just for you, how would you prefer to get off? Granted that short of suicide most of us have limited choices in the matter, but suppose you can choose, what’s your preferred method to “Exit, stage left.”? Thinking of a more frisky meaning for “I want to get off.”? If so, jump to the NSFW version of this question.

Knock me out and give me a lethal dose of morphine.
Sneak up behind me and shoot me in the back of the head while I am grooving to some Joe Walsh guitar lick with headphones on and my eyes closed…
I would like to overdose on marijuana.
Let me loose in space with a space suit, of course, and enough oxygen for me to get a good dose of some serious star gazing.
Sleeping or od on morphine.
@WillWorkForChocolate Might as well mainline a speedball(drug) and leave on an ecstatic roller coaster ride. Just put me on a continual drip till it’s lights out.
@OneBadApple Yeah, that’s probably a pretty fast exit. If they blow out the proper parts of the brain, you never even know it happened.
@Blondesjon I’d sure like to “try” to do that. :-)
@Supacase What a great way to go. The only downside is the funeral arrangements are wickedly expensive.
@KNOWITALL Both my Grandma and my first wife died in their sleep and both had a smile on their face the next morning when they were discovered long gone.
I’m with @Blondesjon. I would love to die high and eating a chocolate brownie for the munchies. LOL
@Pandora I hear ya. The slow and intoxicating search for where you finally reach a lethal dose would be the fun of it.
I could see it now. I will doze off and people will check my pulse and then I will jump up in the face while screaming ahhhhhhhhh! See them jump and then I will crack up and eat some brownies and then doze off again. I will be great!
This is something my family would expect from me. And they won’t be so sad knowing I died joking till the end.
@Pandora I may be going, but I fully intend to have some high points on the downhill slide.
I want to be run over by Santa’s reindeer.
@jonsblond Now there’s a strategy for long live. Refuse to go any other way. :-)
