Lol seems kinda ironic. Have a procedure [spoiler]THAT GRANTS FREAKING IMMORTALITY[/spoiler] then die in the process. Gotta love humanity.
-
I don't desire immortality. It is as much a curse as a blessing. The idea of watching everybody I love and care for grow old and die doesn't sound fun to me
-
Would you keep getting older or not age or regenerate like in Doctor Who is the real question here
-
A chance to watch history unfold first hand? Hell yes
-
Well, if you want a new life it would be good because you could keep starting over easily but if you died you'd have nothing to worry about anymore, so it's really a win win
-
Immortality is a curse.

Self bump

There are some good books about age and immortality. As time goes on the world advances but there is a limit to how much we can adapt to. Let's look at a person. Born in 30-40s right after or during the war in a small town in the middle of nowhere. The war taught them to not waste and gave them a sense that the U.S. was good. Well now they see gay marriage legalized, Isis, the nsa spying on citizens. Now to a middle aged person this is not that bad but because of the amount of adaptation older generations have to go through this all seems radical and they think(with maybe some FOX news mixed in) the world is going to hell.

Not sure I like the idea of immortality. It would be fun for a few years, maybe a few hundred. Once you've watched everyone you know, grand kids included, all suffer and die and it dawned on you will outlive everything .... the appeal will wear off. Sooner or later you'd start to go insane. You really would be forever alone. After a few thousand years you'd be in hiding because anyone alive would want that secret and, because you're immortal, they could chop you up and you'd live through it. Even if they didn't find you, one day you'd outlive the Earth and when it's burned up by the sun you'd be left floating in space going even more bat shit insane while you wait for something, anything to happen. I'd rather just live my life and then fade away.

Wait until I'm diagnosed with 1 day to live. So... ... ... I win
-
Why the fcuk not. No big reason behind it, just why not.
-
Na, I'm fine
-
Why would I want to be immortal?
-
Do you realize how terrible it would be to live forever?
-
Fúck it, I'm not doing it v
-
Look at the poll its 50/50 right now
-
I would take the procedure anyway because I'm going to die anyway might as well die trying to live forever
