possible indicators.

I die! I mis-remember my friend's telephone number and dial
into a hydroelectric dam's power line, electrocuting myself.
My roommates mistake my flailing spasms for sign language,
coincidentally describing a delicious recipe for fried tungsten
with petroleum jelly. They try the recipe.
All die! O, the embarassment.
