I would pick how.
Then I could come up with something clever like drowning in a pool of lava on a planet billions of lightyears away from earth, or some other loophole.
It would probably backfire on me, like I suddenly get teleported there, or frozen until humankind finds this planet. But whatever hehe, I leap before I look =P

I could die by in another galaxy at midnight. I don't give a shit. But if I could choose to die by "Death by chocolate," I'd be set for life.
....Yum, chocolate.
....Yum, chocolate.
I would like to die... IN THE PAST. (Dun dun duuuuun!)
No, seriously, if I could die in some bloody political struggle in Ancient Rome, I would die the happiest woman alive. And my last words would be better than 'Et tu Brute?'. Those are good last words, Mr. Caesar, but I could totally top them.

Woah, woah, woah! I befriend Death? That in itself is just too cool! Plus I'm sure he has all these hilarious stories to tell!
But on topic, I would defintely choose how I die. Make it really painless, like dying in my sleep. Thats the easiest way to go I would think.

I'd choose how I'd die, so long as Death would keep it reasonable. Dying in my sleep at an old age would be just lovely, but I wouldn't want to die in my sleep that night.
I think I'd prefer not to know, and take life as it comes - unless I had Death's assurance he wouldn't try to pervert the process so I'd die more quickly or in a worse situation than I would if I didn't choose anything. If that were the case, I'd want to specify that I die peacefully and after having properly said goodbye to those I care about.
I chose option d that I wouldn't choose. Really, death is one of those things that comes when it comes and I really don't see much use in trying to affect it.
That's one side of me. The other would probably say where I die. Not a specific place, but someplace beautiful and interspective to the world beyond myself. Preferably with close friends and/or family, unless that counts as how I die.
I really don't get all the people choosing when they die. That seems like the worst option of all the four, you'd be living every day of your life counting down to your time of death. Even if you say I want to live to be a thousand (or something) you'll still be counting down, and living too long seems like an absolute drag to me.

I´d choose to...
...die when i was 100 years old. (when)
...die in my sleep. (how)
...die in Coimbra...i like living here. (where)

You have no imagination. I want to go out like Richard Pryor's dad.Berserker119 said:
In case you don't know, he had a heart attack during sex. He was an old man, the girl wasn't out of her teens. That's got to be up there.
I'd probably choose "when." Because I couldn't think of an appropriately awesome "how" (aside from fighting a tiger in a nuclear reactor) and I don't much care for "where."
Who says Death is a he? Neil Gaiman has a cutely designed female Death. She says "See ya" all the time. Isn't that just adorableThatLankyBastard said:
To answer the question I would like to choose the how I would die. Sorta similar to the Monty Python: Meaning of Life fellow who is chased off a cliff by nude women. I'm not saying it needs to be exactly like that, but I'm not objecting.
Well if we were friends, I would ask, in the most appropriate manner:
"To Death, my good friend,
In all of my years of life, you have been my most cherished companion. You were the Han Solo to my Chewbacca, the Christopher Lee to my Peter Cushing, the Winnie the Pooh to my Piglet. I have one request, that I be allowed to depart from this world when you do. I know this is a stretch of our friendship, and I understand if this is impossible for you to grant. Let me say this in the words of the great author, Mark Twain, "Now here are these two unaccountable freaks; they came in together, they must go out together".
TLR I ask that I die when Death dies as well
