Author Topic: POLL: Would you like to be Immortal, or atleast live thousands of years?  (Read 3730 times)

Wouldn't it be awesome to be immortal, or atleast live to be several thousands of years old? You could be just like The Doctor, Queen Elizabeth, Cosmo Cosma, Tom Bombadil, Genie (Aladdin), or even Betty White.

Although it would also be awful to outlive everyone you love and see countless people die, being left to be the last person alive.

This is a two-sided argument.

Thousand since if you are immortal, your alive forever, but once the sun blows up you will suffer from space radiation and other stuff, and no one will be alive with you

You'll get over deaths.

I would take immortality and become the next weapon to surpass metal gear


Immortality.

By the time you're the last one left, which, in my assumption we haven't nuked ourselves to oblivion and manage to live at least a couple thousand years, we'd have the technology for AI's pretty damn good by then, so you'd never truly be alone.

Plus eternal lovebots and virtual reality, I mean, come on. Kinda ties in with my first point, so at least you won't be bored.

Also plus, cloning will probably be perfected by then so you won't truly be the last one left, assuming you have the knowledge to operate the machinery.

But that's only scenario one.

If you're immortal and humanity dies off in the next hundred or so years, you're going to have much less options, but there's still plenty to do.

I mean, free food, right?

Assuming scenario two is the one to come to pass, being immortal would probably hit a drag after a while though, because life would lose all predictability unless you know how to start fixing humanity being dead and all.

I agree with this, however it can be said that if you're immortal you'll live until space travel, and hopefully get to explore the stars forever.

immortality is fun

like seriously the only "down sides" are matters of perspective

average human life time
watching everyone around me die is loving horrifying

Unless you die really young its going to happen immortality or not.

several thousand years
or immortality with the exception that i'm able to kill myself

depends on if you age normally or not


no i want to die

in fact just let me die right now thanks

I would like to be immortal IF I could not feel pain and my body could not be damaged (or if it would always repair itself somehow)
also no aging

can I live for 1000's of years but be an animated skeleton instead of a human thanks
