So, now? https://yearofthelinuxdesktop.net/
To me it was somewhere in the late 90's, but I'm sure people will still be debating this when I die.
My entire obituary will start with the phrase
Area man ....
Of that. I'm sure.
Just as long as it’s not Florida man…
There will be no headline. I am just a plebe.
Not a headline about you. Just the top story in the news on the day that you die
“Scientists discover that pigs fly”
Earth runs out of Oxygen... Billions of people die!
"Immortality For All Just Weeks Away"
Go down in history as the last human to die
you won't believe what happened to this fish
"Man dies from dehydration while defecating on former President Donald Trump's grave. Friends say man intentionally consumed many McDonald's Hamburgers and bottles of laxatives prior to death."
Good luck with that. Have u ever seen how they had to bury Reagan?
is his corpse on a rotisserie for all eternity?
If I'm lucky, it'll be the fact that I died. And the reputation I'd have to build to get that headline is hopefully gonna be a good one.
Top headline will be about some new word the young generation is using. The smaller pieces will say stuff like "are you morally opposed to murder? That may cost you your job! 12 out the 14 companies in America say they wouldn't hire someone with antique puritane views"
Gaargle flooded with toads, again.
Coffin too small for deceased performer, but not for the reason you think
FMC: Oxygen line malfunctions. Experts estimate 100% casualties. Mars ambassador to Earth: "No contact has been made as of now, investigation is underway".
The news will start shortening to FMC because "First Mars Colony" will be such a frequent headline.
I will not be involved myself, I just assume I'll live waaaay too long and die peacefully in a parachute accident that same day.
over_clox was attacked and run over by a Cybertruck 3.0 in auto self-defense mode after trying to move a turtle out of the road.
"Trump does stupid shit... again."
Might be Don, might be Jr., might be Eric. There are enough Trumps to exhaust my lifetime.
