After reading this thread, I think I’ll just keep drinking and wait for my liver to detonate.

The perfect execution device, upgraded to 21st-Century technology.
Base the design on a Xikar Xi1 guillotine cigar cutter. Placed horizontally on an "execution table," with a hole through it that the condemned's head is inserted into.
Ceramic blades won't stain or rust from the blood and can go many uses before needing replacing. Power the blades with nitrogen-charged pneumatic cylinders. Before the execution, the blades are pushed back, fully compressing the gas cylinders, then locked into place. Insert head and at the flick of a switch, the blades fire and the head is snipped off in a thousandth of a second, slicker than a Fuente Fuente Opus X. Works first tiome every time and maintenance/reuse costs are near zero.

Why the old joke of “What is a Norwegian Dude? A Norwegian that was circumcised with Pinking Shears” was the first thing that I thought of... and that is Just Weird!

GOOGLE IT for kripes-sake!
I am sick of trying to explain the research I’ve read to people who refuse to ‘believe’ rather then go look at it for themselves.

A cigarette? Those things will kill you.
I just saw a documentary or an article about it.

The antidote to the horror is to have a good one-liner ready.
