One day we will no longer walk the earth.

If you could be remembered for only one thing -- an action, a trait, a deed -- what would it be.

Only one.
 
The man who set the nukes off.

Alternatively i'd like a disease named after me.
 
The man who set the nukes off.

Sorry, we have to accept your first answer; however, I've spoken with the Fates and they're willing to name a condition after you for the duration of your natural life. It will be the forgetting of rules, but the honorific will fade after you're gone, and be forgotten.
 
Maybe be remembered for the way I died: Shot to death at the age of 110 by a jealous boyfriend.
;^}
Seriously though, i'd just like to be remembered fondly by the people who knew me.
 
I won't elaborate but "The day the music died".
 
Deviating away from what is considered "normal" and "acceptable."
 
We won't even be remembered.

That would be quite variable from man to man, but I fondly remember literally hundreds of friends, most of whom are older and gone, and they are strong memories. I think I could list them and a single trait or deed would come up for every one.
 
Not everyone was old. I have some friends younger than I am.

And it's not if, but when.
 
Kindness...laughter. :)

If I die on Jub….I know some of you will make cabbage jokes :mad:
 
I'll be remembered for being the only one that didn't make a cabbage joke at Vannie's expense.
 
About the only thing that will be preserved of any significance will be my published works on genealogy and history, and of course I expect some kind of gravestone, but those don't last more than a few centuries. We now live in an age where the acts and deeds of our lives are pretty well recorded by government entities and data miners.
 
It's difficult to say, I think that my family will remember me as the one who could make it work.
 
People will be saying thank goodness that asshat is gone...sheesh..what a dick.
 
I hope to be remembered for making people smile..so I want a huge fucking parade, every year, on the anniversary of me death.
 
That is what I want, minus the celebration that I'm dead and still dead each anniversary.

I have though about it, and I weighed whether intellect, virtue, or humor was my preferred legacy. Humor won. I don't think intelligence is inherently a virtue, and virtue isn't necessarily accompanied by an appealing personality. But when we remember someone who made us laugh all the time, we have a good feeling. I've been a comic since my senior year in high school, and in the work place, it has helped to turn often bleak jobs into bearable.
 
I doubt that anyone will notice my death nor remember me.

For many years I have thought of having a tiny brass plaque put somewhere, just so my name is not completely forgotten.
 
I have no wish to be remembered by strangers, only those who knew me well.

If I did though, I'd leave a behest to something I valued, like a library, a botanic garden, or some favorite charity or university. Those are fairly enduring memorials that mean naught to the reader but the values they embody.
