A super deep question I just thought of: Live or die?

[*Magick* Mage]

Ahaha. I knew you would post that, cunning little goose. :3

Also, Miki, what made you ponder this question? :o

Despite how boring it would get eventually, I would rather live forever than die right now.

I dunnno lol

[Destroyer]

Well I sure as hell would not want to die right now.

[Skip]

Why do I have to die now? :(

[Otis Da HousKat]

I'd live forever, if i could choose not to age i'd stay 19 forever and forget high schoolgirls for eternity.

What, does no one else think this sounded really creepy?

[Caution]

What, does no one else think this sounded really creepy?

I did. O_o

I would die now. I personally believe mankind is in for a hell of a surprise in my lifetime.

OH stuff WHAT??? OZONE LAYER IS BEING DEPLETED????? WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN??????? stuff!!!! WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING!!!!!

[Nikki]

I would like to continue living, I would like to see and help mankind in anyway I can. All I know is that it will certainly be not like the Jetsons. 

[Man 2]

I'd like to be like Cpt. Jack Harkness
Get shot in the heart, die, wake back up
Go through two wars without dying
Javelin through the chest
And still wake up every time.
That would be kinda nice.

Although, I might get kinda bored and end up throwing myself off cliffs for fun.

[Madmitten]

I'd live, and then fly to mars and live there, I'd also take badspot so that way we always have the BL forums

[Block Buster]

I think I'd live, and make millions off the gift. First thing is I would be a soldier, after rising through the ranks with many awards I would become a mercenary. Than make to sniff money and get even more fame, now after collecting billions I would 'fight' some other well known mercenary and get 'killed' by some revolutionary biological weapon. After that I could learn everything there is and settle down to a nice island outside of Venice.

I'm surprised by how well thought-out your life plan after acquiring immortality is.

As always, Cracked has a great reason as to why something sucks.

Or for those who want to go straight to the point:

Okay, after the first, say, few hundred years, everything's still fine and well. You've seen a few generations of people live and die, and had this happen to your family. Oh well, they were likely douches you could live without anyway at some points. Companionship is companionship, or so you think.

Not so fast: You know how when you were younger (by human terms, a child), an hour seemed like forever to you? As people grow, their brain starts to perceive time differently. An hour feels like less time. Now extend that logic to a year, or a decade, or a century. This means that eventually, you will be completely unable to form relationships with human beings because their lives and deaths will flash past you like a tape on fast-forward.

Let's keep going into the future, since you're a sociopathic recluse and think you're still okay with this whole immortality thing. There are so many things that could go wrong with the planet, an asteroid strike, nuclear war, the LHC, but let's assume the planet somehow makes it through all that without being reduced to dust.

Five billion years from now or so, the Sun expands into a red giant. You survive the first roasting, but nothing else does. The Sun eventually rips planet Earth into rubble with gravity. So now there you are floating in outer space, drifting along, or getting a bitching tan at the heart of the Sun so you can pick up some killer alien chicks in the Andromeda galaxy if you ever get there (you won't).

Either way, a few trillion years later, the universe starts to really show its entropy. Every where is the same. No stars, no planets, no black holes, just an empty, cold mass of subatomic particles that can never come together again. And you, floating along in the void. Forever.

So yeah I'd rather not live forever.

Does immunity to pain come with it?
