       murderers have e-mail?
rbl, Apr 09 2002
  

       Along with a message to the bastard who killed me, I would like to also sign up for the "hire a thug to go cut off their legs" option.   

       Words could not accurately convey my message from the grave.
dag, Apr 09 2002
  

       [stupop] and [Rods]: The "write your killer" construction is an American usage.

       write2yourkiller.com? Ugh. Spose they'd need to cover it, though.

       In the case of a mass murderer, the service could save money by sending a group mail.

       [ ] "Still looking for the 'real' killer?"
phoenix, Apr 10 2002
  

       [ ] Okay, this is NOT what I meant by 'Blow me.'   

       [ ] NOW try to get in the last word!   

       [ ] You know the way the house creaks at night? That's me.   

       [ ] I can see my house from here!

reensure, Apr 10 2002
  

       [ ] No, I meant a BUD light!   

       [ ] Well done! I'll have to give it an 8.6 - a little lacking in artistic merit, but nice execution.   

       oh, I KILL me...

       Seems rather sad if that's your only response to being murdered. I favor were-insurance, that would pay off a bounty on the killer(s) in the event of your untimely demise.
DrCurry, Mar 19 2003
  

       Who said it was the only response?

       I propose a spin off from this idea.   

       Dear Mr Bush,   

       My name is ___________. I was a citizen of Iraq. i was killed today along with members of my family and friends, as a direct result of your attempt to 'liberate' me. I hope you are proud.   

       Sincerely, _____________.
sambwiches, Mar 19 2003
  

       couldn't agree more.
sufc, Mar 19 2003
  

       maybe i should have made this a separate idea. In fact....
sambwiches, Mar 19 2003
  

       You realize that a lot of these messages are going to be rather... acidic, yes? (+)
Madcat, Nov 24 2003
  

       I really like this idea. I'll think of some ideas for this later. For now...+

       [ ] Hey - when you get here, your room is right next to the noisy ice machine. Thought you should know.
shapu, Oct 08 2004
  

       I just had a thought - if you kill yourself, to whom would you send the letter?
shapu, Oct 08 2004
  

       I like the idea very much.   

       [ ] That was no sugar. [ ] Beware! I'm Alive!
Saruman, Dec 16 2004
  

       [ ] I see live people!   

       [ ] Sleep well...... If you can.......

       [ ] You're getting the bill for this mailing.
cuckoointherye, Jan 24 2005
  

       It's a site about people writing letters from the point of view that they have already died. This is an idea about people writing letters from the point of view that they have already died - and addressing them to their murderer. Yep, no relevance.   

       I think from my best psychoanalytical perspective, [ ] was somewhat disturbed by the site, repressed what [ ] didn't like, and went into denial that such a horribly depressing site could be in any way relevant to such a comical, fun idea such as this.
cuckoointherye, Jan 24 2005
  

       [ ] You are *so* out of the will.   

       Im just saying, to my eyes you're cuckoo.
cuckoointherye, Jan 24 2005
  

       this idea always creeps me out.
benfrost, Jan 24 2005
  

       [ ] so, I forgot your address...+
