Death by Default thread
This a game idea I'm going to pursue after NaNoRenO, so why did I spent all this time drawing it instead of working on Terminal? Hmmm.

A single death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic.

Death borders upon our birth, and our cradle stands in the grave. Our birth is nothing but our death begun.
--Bishop Hall
Ancient Egyptians believed that upon death they would be asked two questions and their answers would determine whether they could continue their journey in the afterlife. The first question was, "Did you bring joy?" The second was, "Did you find joy?"
--Leo Buscaglia
Nothing is certain but death and taxes. Of the two, taxes happen annually.
--Joel Fox
Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome.

I said to Life, I would hear Death speak. And Life raised her voice a little higher and said, You hear him now.

A man is not completely born until he is dead.

Men successfully commit suicide three times more frequently than women do. But women attempt suicide two to three times more often than men.
More people are killed annually by donkeys than die in air crashes.
Lightning strikes about 6,000 times per minute on this planet! Men are 6 times more likely to be struck by lightning than women!
Most dust particles in your house are made from dead skin!
The ashes of the average cremated person weigh nine pounds.
The poison-arrow frog has enough poison to kill about 2,200 people!
A toothpick is the object most often choked on by Americans!
Over 2500 left handed people a year are killed from using products made for right handed people!
Taphephobia is the fear of being buried alive!
A cockroach can live several weeks with its head cut off - it dies from starvation!
Over 10,000 birds a year die from smashing into windows!
In Natoma, Kansas, it's illegal to throw knives at men wearing striped suits.
The electric chair was invented by a dentist!
Each year close to 75 000 Canadians die due to cardiovascular disease.
FACT:In 2002, there were 30,242 gun deaths in the U.S:
17,108 suicides (56% of all U.S gun deaths),
11,829 homicides (39% of all U.S gun deaths),
762 unintentional shootings (3% of all U.S gun deaths),
and 300 from legal intervention and 243 from undetermined intent (2% of all U.S gun deaths combined).
-Numbers obtained from CDC National Center for Health Statistics mortality report online, 2005.
FACT: Comparison of U.S. gun homicides to other industrialized countries:

373 people in Germany
151 people in Canada
57 people in Australia
19 people in Japan
54 people in England and Wales, and
11,789 people in the United States
(*Please note that these 1998 numbers account only for HOMICIDES, and do not include suicides, which comprise and even greater number of gun deaths, or unintentional shootings).

Ah, found it:
MCDP (Marine Corps Doctrinal Publication) 1-1: Strategy (you can find those on the net, at least those that aren't classified... )
Chapter 1, Page 15:
"For example,
over a 25-year period—1969 through 1994—some 3,000
people were killed in Northern Ireland for an average of 120
deaths per year in a population of 1.5 million.5 For that same
period, there were approximately 291 murders per year committed
in Washington, D.C. in an average population of
642,000. " (That was during the civil war)
Hm, I better don't comment on it, else I break the "no politics" rule.

I should point out, BTW, that DC has one of the strictest gun control laws in the country.

Procrastinate? Well, of course! From gun control to yoghurt drink in one post!
I would also say that the whole buzz about Actimel is based only on clever marketing. It is actually scientifically proven, that the drink does NOT strengthen your body's defence mechanisms, and there are several university authorities who oppose, even tried to sue Danone because of misleading customers.
