I suggest working in pairs, pair up everyone and poison your partner.

As long as there's an even number of people in the world it should all work out nicely, apart from there being no human life left, but we'll get over it .

@Van - Poisoning is too complex. What happens if man A and B poison each other, but man A dies first? Man B has killed man A, and while technically man A is responsible for the ultimate death of man B, he's not alive to witness it, and therefore not gain the satisfaction (the point of the list). If it's possible to gain satisfaction from the knowledge you've killed somebody after your own demise, without actually witnessing it, then the easiest solution would just be to hypnotize everyone into thinking they'd killed someone, and thus save a lot of innocent(?) lives.

@Grandma - The last person left has killed someone, so they don't need to commit suicide, unless that's also on the top 100 list.

Haha, i figured, let's add it then so the last person left (if any) can have a "backup plan". Altough that will lead to unsatisfaction for everyone who got killed...hmmmm tricky. I suppose the most secure way is to change the "kill someone" goal into "kill yourself", but that's no fun!

Okay time for another real suggestion: Master a musical instrument.

Awwwww you forgot the 2 music themed ones.

Master a musical instrument. *me*

Start a musical in the the middle of the street *Zombie 20*

Judging by the list so far, i'm afraid i won't reach many goals, lol. Oh well, you can always add a "Live your life to the end without reaching all your goals* goal.

It's not a big mistery anymore actually after the Ex-CIA Howard Hunt confession, according to him it was a french black-op guy working for the CIA, Lucien Sarti.

How about a walk on the great wall of china!

That's one of my personal goals though, it's even a realistic one! compared to my other goals such as "make one edible dinner", edible being the keyword.

lol... Not everybody would have satisfaction though if everyone killed each other! And why is this? No one has/will ever manage to kill Chuck Norris, instead, the last person left would probably kill themselves as quickly as possible.

Here is a real suggestion:
1. Create a large company in less than 3 days, which would out do Microsoft, and whatever Mexican company out-did them. Then, you can point and laugh at everyone below you.

2. Kill your evil twin.

Including all of the archiac ones that reach back to 500AD? That would be interesting, though time consuming. After about 30mins - 1 hour you could pretty much blag it as people would have lot all concentration.
