If you knew you were very shortly going to kick the bucket what would you're last words be? Here are some examples to get you started.
Beautiful.
In reply to her husband who had asked how she felt.
~~ Elizabeth Barrett Browning, writer, d. June 28, 1861
That was the best ice-cream soda I ever tasted.
~~ Lou Costello, comedian, d. March 3, 1959
That was a great game of golf, fellers.
~~ Harry Lillis "Bing" Crosby, singer / actor, d. October 14, 1977
My God. What's happened?
~~ Diana (Spencer), Princess of Wales, d. August 31, 1997
Some more help. As if you smart vegans need any. I always thought if I was about to die in a car accident my last words would be OH SHIT but the last close call I was in I said "I am sure glad I have my seat belt on" as the truck seemed about to roll down a steep embankment. It didn't, with a little help from above.

Hmmm. i'm going to have to give this some thought. I honestly think mine wouldnt be anything like what i'm going to think about saying. but, i can at least figure out what i would like to say.
Sarcastically, 'Well I didn't see this coming"
"The killer in me is the killer in you"
I find myself saying "Huh." with mild curiosity at such times.
"Pass... the... cake."
I too had to think about this and finally came up with:
I hope I haven't hurt anyone in anyway. And if I did I'm sorry.
I like the reported (and possibly apocryphal) last words of Catherine the Great, when her physician told her, "Majesty, you must get well! The people need you!"
Her reply: "You do not say "must" to a princess."
"stay... no go."
"*groan* place *extended goan* the *breathe* bucket *moan* beside my *deep breath* foot...."
"holy cow, this tofu really takes like pork!.... Wait, what do you mean its not tofu?!"
...cough...
...choke...
...die.
the end. :P

I hate to spoil your fun but I don't believe it for a minute! This is the woman who publicly dressed-down somebody who called her "Catherine the Great", telling them that history alone would decide that. If I remember rightly she had a stroke in her dressing-room and was unconscious for several hours before death.
"Go vegan."
My last words might be, "See you when you get Home."
hah, catski! have you seen this?

"Dont wait up for me..."
"It was bound to happen one of these days"
