In a Rolling Stone issue released today, they are publishing the apparent suicide note for Hunter Thompson.

 

Per CNN:

 

Douglas Brinkley, the presidential historian who is also Thompson's official biographer, writes that a February 16 note may be Thompson's final written words. It reads:

 

"No More Games. No More Bombs. No More Walking. No More Fun. No More Swimming. 67. That is 17 years past 50. 17 more than I needed or wanted. Boring. I am always b****y. No Fun -- for anybody. 67. You are getting Greedy. Act your old age. Relax -- This won't hurt."

 

Hunter left the note for his wife, Anita. He shot himself four days later at his home in Aspen, Colorado, after weeks of pain from a host of physical problems that included a broken leg and a hip replacement.

 

Written in black marker, the note was titled, "Football Season Is Over."

My suicide note would say: Don't rest until you've found the people who did this.  Avenge my death!!

 

And I'd try to shoot myself at some really wierd angle just to keep everybody busy for a while.  ;)

 

So whose getting to hell on the express line?  :D

 

Express lane? Not a chance, we get to go through the BMV version of getting there for all of this stuff...

My suicide note would read:

 

"EEEBIDDY EEEBIDDY EEEBIDDY, THAT'S ALLLLLLL, FOLKS!!!!"

 

and then I'd write BANG on a flag sticking out of a gun.

I would be the coolest suicider ever.

Fun Fact: Mel Blanc's grave marker at the Hollywood Cemetary really has this inscription.

 

In contrast, cartoon voice wizard Mel Blanc's grave is a simple, gray, granite tombstone, emblazoned with a six-point star and a cheery, "That's all, folks."
