"It looks easy." "I'm sure that's real." "How could it go wrong." "Mom, I think I may have wrecked the car." “I think I may have burned down the house, but I saved my match collection.” "No, that’s not the poisonous kind."
Seeing how I want to die while "facing the storm" I think that my preferred last words are: "I may not live through this, but neither will you."

I honestly can't think of a good phrase. I hope it comes so fast that my last thought might be, "S***! Cement truck!"

I'd love to go out with something like, "I'd hate to die twice. It's so boring." Richard Feynman's last words...
It's also really cool when someone is taking their own pulse while they die and say "Oh, it's stopped" and then die.
But knowing me, my last word's probably going to be a swear or something that makes absolutely no sense.

If I remember corectly from his autobiography, Asimov said he wanted his last words to be "I love you" towards his wife, and she mentioned that that's what he actually said.
Others:
"God, now's your time to pay ! Watch out, I'm coming !"
"Well, life sucks anyway..."
"Going down..."
"I'm SURE it's the red wire !!"
"And now to find out why the chicken went to the other side !"

"...Asimov said he wanted his last words to be "I love you" ..."
Yeah I'm with him in fact was thinking the exact same thing right before I read this.
Some others though, hmmm... I really kind of like Boromir's : I would have followed you to the end, my king Or whatever the heck he said.
"glory to the emperor, death to the shogun, hurray for the shi shi, Sonno Joi"!
"Now I'm full"
"Damned females"
"You know... I'm just doing this to get out of work..."
"I'm not really a nice guy, that's just a face I kept on all my waking life life so I could get what I wanted."
"NO, the fact that I have an X chromosome does NOT mean that I am half gay!!!"
"Life's too darn easy, I always get what I want. This sucks, I wish I were dead."
"See you in hell"
"No, actually, I am not an ninety year old man and I did not just do your hot 20 year old wife right in front of you and she has not been cheating on you with me for the last year and a half and no you're not going to use that pistol to shoot me with just because you don't think you can take me."
"farewell, friends, I go forth to the land of good beer and fast women"
"at least it will be nice and warm where I'm going"
"Let's just look over one more ridge"

What I'm wondering is, how important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?

"If people can see that you mean them no harm they will not harm you.... nine times out of ten."
Either that or, "the more sophistocated the technology, the more vulnerable it is to primitive attack."

No famous last words to list, but I do want the bumper sticker that says "Don't follow me, I'm lost" put on my casket.

I'd like to go in my sleep, just like grandpa and not like the other three people in the car screaming
