3. 1. Run.
2. Scream
3. Die.

Cos I'd not be travelling in first class and being in 4th class or what have you I'd have no chance of getting a lifeboat.

9. Break out a deck chair....
I saw BBC America's "Cash in the Attic" program, IIRC, where the appraiser opined that some thought that if the deck chairs on the Titanic had not been locked up. More would have survived that due to the chairs flotation ability.

10. Shove women and children out of my way to make sure I get a seat in one of the lifeboats.
Then 'accidentally' push all of the people in my lifeboat into the icy waters of the Atlantic and laugh and laugh...
And then I would enjoy a glass of sherry.

13. The grim reaper came for me eighty years ago.
I shoved him in the icy waters of the atlantic, too.
And then I had a fine glass of sherry.

15. When I shot that lawyer in the face I was actually aiming for his balls.
I planned on doing some pelvic thrusts at him while he was rolling around on the ground in pain, and sneering my classic sneer.
Then I was going to have a glass of sherry.
Instead, he had the audacity to stick his face in the way of my shot.
Asshole.
