I never understood why people have glass furniture in their houses, may as well make it out of knives like the targerion throne. You know it will break eventually, probably the very first time you move houses at the very latest.
Glass table tops are supposed to be tempered glass. It takes a hell of a lot to break them. But if you are a 400lb weakling who keeled over because of literal wankery, well, not even tanks are designed to handle that kind of fail...

Joking, just joking! :D:D:D

Not quite the same, but I nearly killed myself once wanking at my PC.

I'd been out the night before on the lash, and I always get killer-horny the next day after a slurp. I wasn't shagging anyone at the time, not even a fuck buddy in tow to call over, so I was sat down and on about my 4th wank of the day. Not much juice left in the nackers but still all the desire bursting out, so I was thrashing off to some porn and as I was doing so my legs were pushing into the ground really hard because of the forced tension.

After some time I finally spunked, and so got up to grab my tissues to clean it all up but - because my legs had been pushing so hard into the ground - both legs froze up on me and locked out as I stood up. I couldn't do owt apart from topple over helplessly, and as I did I realized I was toppling head first towards a glass cabinet, which itself had some pretty sharp objects in which wouldn't marry with my face/head/neck.

Fortunately I just missed it, but the dangers of virtuality should not be underestimated.

My mom once walked in on me while I was stroking my cawlk. While the situation was non-life threatening I certainly felt that that was the end. I have also shit my pants while hanging out with a large group of friends. Part of me still wishes I died that day. Anywho, what were we talking about?

$2.99 Permadeath DLC

The ultimate DLC. Would actually make a nice Black Mirror episode.

No doubt. The protagonist buys it on a whim, thinking it's a joke. Then, when he kills people in a game, the players die, too. He doesn't know what's happening until the news starts reporting mysterious deaths. He thinks nothing of it until he plays a game with his best friend and kills him.

Isn't that what the "plot" in Superhot was?
