My older brother and I made up a game called Famous Last Words when we were kids. We'd think up of funny famous last words and try to out-funny each other. He was the witty one. I always went for the obvious "Of course it's not loaded!" lines.
I think it's Oscar Wilde who is supposed to have uttered with his dying breath "Either that wallpaper goes or I do."

I've actually given this a lot of serious thought. Does that make me morbid?
My career will most likely take me to the absolute middle of nowhere. I won't have many chances to come home, and communication may be limited. Since I'll probably have to set up a will before I leave, I figured I would attach a series of letters to it. A lot of it's probably ego, but there are things I'll need to people to know, but "in case I don't come back" messages might be too distressing for a lot of them. Grandma stresses enough as it is.
or maybe I'm just being pretentious.
Well, that's why they get the notes after you die.
So there's no worrying! All they need to do to know you're not, well, dead, is check their e-mail.
A lot of my family, especially the ones I'm most concerned about, aren't really internet people. Technical or security issues may keep me off the internet for extended periods of time, and that would just be awkward.
Besides all that, it's a bit impersonal. By attaching them to your will you can hand write them, or at least sign them.

And yeah, he was pretty awesome. Playing Arkham Horror with him at PAX '07 was one of the highlights for me.
When was this?
Rather, let me put it this way, I've been able to piece together via google that it happened last year, but this is the first I knew about it. I can't search for his name here because it's under the four-letter minimum.
by a Roman general being stabbed to death by his guards
I wish I was so badass that I had to tell my guards to try harder to kill me
also, this was stated by Caligula and was "I live!"
:x
duh, it was Caligula. don't know why I didn't think of that
anyway my source says it was "I'm still alive" but it doesn't matter

Oh, God yesh, that's impersonal as shit. I just sort of assumed that nobody sane would inform their immediately friends and family of their death via e-mail.
I figured it'd just be for internet friends and stuff. So if one of us were to die, the rest of us troglodytic faggots would know.

He killed himself, leave it at that.
Touchy subject
He's not the only one, either Really sucks to lose someone that way

Oh my God I gotta get me one of those.
Also, the rapture is sounding better and better. So the fundies ascend to heaven and they leave everyone else down here to chill? So we're basically just rid of all those assholes we hated anyway?

The first image that pops into my mind here is Satan emerging from hell to lay waste to us and then getting run over by a bradley or something

To whom it may concern,
If you are in receipt of this correspondence, it means that either the rapture has transpired and I have left this particular plane of existence, or I have been arrested for check fraud.
Regardless of which, please know that I am innocent.
Kind Regards,

A magician gives you a ring that, when worn, will let you see the world as it truly is.
However, the ring will never leave your finger, and you will be unable to ever describe to another living person what you see.

"Wait a minute...."
That's hilarious. I'm pretty sure I used that in the famous last words game. Never thought it would be an actual quote

I think it would be incredibly embarrassing for posterity if my last e-words were misspelled.

I'd probably write out a really personal message revealing secrets about an affair or stolen pirate booty and 'accidentally' send it to everyone.
Hey wasn't there a guy recently who confessed to a murder he had committed years ago because he thought he was dying, and then he recovered and they arrested him?

o Note: His final words are subject to historical debate, and vary with many biographies. Among those that have been reported to be his last words are:
+ I shall hear in Heaven.
+ I feel as if up to now I had written no more than a few notes.
+ (To his friend Johann Hummel, who was at his bedside) Is it not true, Hummel, that I have some talent after all?
+ There, do you hear the bell? Don't you hear it ringing? The curtain must drop. Yes! My curtain is falling.
+ Another biographer has him saying nothing; simply shaking his fists defiantly at the heavens as a thunderstorm raged outside his window.

Friends applaud, the comedy is finished.
Well I always thought of it as someone who realises it's a trap about thirty seconds too late.
I thought so but I wasn't sure
these will be my last words
because seriously what's the deal with her
it will be me promising to send you that DVD next week.
Uh
I'd hit it?
if I was next to you when you died and you said this I would slap you
you gotta say something like
Damnit Jim! I'm a doctor, not a whale biologist!
nah it's okay
i'm so behind on commissions of various sorts that i have no place to talk
it's a show for old people
