Author Topic: Would you want to be cryogenically frozen?  (Read 3947 times)

it depends
if I just had enough to freeze me, then no, because I wouldn't be able to give any of my relatives any money.
If I had much more than that then probably yes

I DONT GET IT
Don't mourn ma nigah, I'm gonna ice those mothafukas.

ryder brother

no becuz this might be last time before humans let technomalagy completely take over

I'm actually surprised I have more people saying yes than no.

Yeah I would
i'd be ok most likely, though it would take me a very long time to readjust

Buy things that go up in value, like guitars or sports cars, then sell them in the future for trillions*

*in the future, inflation would be mega high

If I was sort of old and I had a disease which could maybe be cured in the future? Sure.

if you were old, you wouldn't be able to enjoy as much of the future.

I would get my head in a flying jar.

When you wake up, you will not obviously feel very well, due to some scientific temperature reasons.
Quite depressing, eh?
So stop wanting to be frozen. Get rid of your stupid dreams and fullfill your real life.
Thank you. *Audience cheers*
this entire thing sounds like you're trying WAY too hard to sound professional, i hope that's what you were going for.

you don't end up being killed to be frozen, its when you die and they immediately start to freeze you to keep any brain damage from occuring

I guess I don't really care what happens to my body when I die. If I were to be frozen at death and reanimated when the technology comes around, I feel like it'd be a good chance to burn every bridge I've built and start over.
Of course, there'd be worldwide protests over ethics, religious fanatics would criticize it (maybe even try to assassinate the reanimated people) and, who knows, I may be denied certain rights as a reanimated person.
To say nothing of the overpopulation issues, having essentially figured out how to indefinitely reverse death. I can only hope that the technology to reanimate a cryogenically frozen corpse would come around at the same time as interstellar travel.

Thinking about it, I would be virtually useless in the society of the future.

I'll have to adapt to the new culture, the new technology, probably have to retake a few courses in school and a lot of career paths available now that I might want to pursue might be obsolete.

That, and considering the advances we've made in medicinal science, who knows what kind of diseases I'd bring with me that they've long since eradicated :v
