I'm stealing a page from frogmajick, even though I've already told my mom and dad this and I'd like to think they'd remember.

If I'm in a horrible accident or something and end up in a coma, for the love of frosted donuts, would you just let me go? I'm not sure I believe in Heaven, but I definitely believe that anything ... anything ... has to be better than lying in a bed staring at the ceiling. And if you believe in Heaven, then why do you want to keep me here?

Unplug my ass. (The first person to make a snarky crack at that gets trout-slapped.) I can't write, I can't read, I can't watch "Jake 2.0", I can't shag my friends list. Trust me, I'm not having any fun.

And if I'm braindead? Yeah, as much as the morbid, Halloween-lovin' part of my brain would like to be a zombie, let's not do that, okay?

And remember what I said about donating my organs. Whatever you don't give to the needy, I bring back from the afterlife and fling at your head.

There. Now that's saved for posterity.

To be perfectly honest, I'd rather they don't starve me to death.

Look, my cat was old, having trouble walking, and generally not living a good life. Though it nearly killed me to do it, I had her put to sleep, and I'm still crying over it. But I loved her enough to go through the expense I couldn't afford. It was fast, quiet and painless.

Why can't I put a clause in my will that says if there's no hope for me and the only thing keeping me alive is machines or a feeding tube, that they just give me a shot?

Because if your grandmother and your cat are suffering to death, it's okay to save your cat from that, but God forbid you do the same thing for Granny.

Yeah. I just. don't. understand.

It's because most of the people who make the laws are eeevil. They can see someone using it as an excuse to off Granny while she's still capable of having some fun, just to get her money.

They don't care about Granny, they just don't want anyone to do it to *them*.
