hanging, so long as my neck cracks immediately. Fortunately for me, I'm bony so it shouldn't be an issue.

This.  But I would take firing squad easily over these two.

Electric Chair seems more fitting, also once Pence takes power I'll have to take that fate so.

Both can be badly botched. As long as it won't be a blundering typical American executioner, hanging (provided it'd be a specialist of Albert Pierrepoint's stature.)

hanging, so long as my neck cracks immediately. Fortunately for me, I'm bony so it shouldn't be an issue.

All depends on the length of a rope. Too short and you'd strangles slowly. Too high, your head would come off like it happened to Black Jack Ketchum.

At least British came up with a professional measuring: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Official_Table_of_Drops

Hanging, so that my descendents would hopefully all know that the past tense of the verb is "hanged" and not "hung."

LOL. Also, lean hanging.

So your ultimate goal is to be featured in an After School Special?

I would much rather opt for decapitation. No margin of error there.

To be fair, Ser Rodrik had the misfortune of being executed via incompetent Greyjoy and not via guillotine.

Depends on the voltage of the electricity and the quality of the rope.

I think execution by guillotine would be a fitting end for me.

Hanging, as I feel like it would preserve the physical integrity of my body better.

This seems like the most morbid topic possible to be discussing.
