My god, I was about to mention torture but then I read your post and realized, I cannot stand going blind.beniki said:Going blind.
This! I would probably break one of the Cd's and slit that fucker's throat, even if it was a woman, and even if that meant the end of the human race.wrightguy0 said:being the second last living person on earth, locked in a vault Fallout style with only a stack of records by coldplay, creed and nickelback and my one companion is a mega fan of all three

And you seem very secure in the assertion that God = untruth...

Yep, they're called typos... and they happen very often with me when it comes to HTML.

That quote...
I never said that!
Well yeah exactly, the fact that I'd get found out eventually is why its a fate worse than death for me. Also I'd have to leave good friends behind constantly. That is unless they ( the scientists) discover why i'm immortal and give it to everyone.Timewave Zero said:Well, I meant special operations, secret military missions and whatnot. Nevermind, it was about 3am when I wrote that. It was supposed to be a complete exaggeration of what I was doing: printing out Lovecraft without notifying the mentor.Rockchimp69 said:I don't understand what you meant about black ops.Timewave Zero said:Oh, I love H.P. Lovecraft's stuff. Hell, I'm printing out the really obscure stuff - the collaborations nobody cares about - on the printer in college when the tutor is out of the room. Fuckin' Black Ops shit right there, sir. Well, sort of, only it isn't whatsoever.Rockchimp69 said:Then you'd love HP Lovecraft books :LTimewave Zero said:The knowledge that I am completely inconsequential in the universe - nothing more than a small drop of paint on the bottom rung of the ladder of existence. To know that there unfathomable, uncaring, amoral, incomprehensible forces who are so more powerful in every convievable fashion that they could end our entire existence in the universe before any one of us took notice that anything was going on out there.
To know that the second I die, another tiny little, pointless light will pop out and be taken up by the darkness of the yawning gulf of oblivion.
THAT is far more awful to me than death - to know that while I live, I am nothing and could be reduced to a lowly, mindless slave by alien intelligences any second.
Then die.
To be honest though this doesn't really bother me that much because there is a whole world of things we have loads of control or power over, like animals, bacteria , electricity, chemistry that sort of stuff. Everything is relative, so if you admit that you are very small you should also realize that you are very big.
As for me, the worst thing would be if I was forced to live forever. It would be great if I could stay alive for around 3000 years but after that I think I would be satisfied, after all the whole point of life is to live it well and die satisfied.
And all these people saying it'd be shit to be immortal - I disagree.
Here's what you do:
1. Reveal immortality
2. Become obscenely wealthy by way of fame, power and respect
3. ????
4. Profit
Then you have the word at your fingertips - you can make anybody you want live forever because there will be so many scientists looking to replicate it and you'll demand dibs becuase, let's face it, they can't kill you.
Of course it could all go tits up, but it'd be sort of fun being a god.
But in response to that point about immortality, I don't think I would want fame, it would ruin chances of meeting a girlfriend the normal way and a whole load of other shit. Also i wouldn't want to be regarded as a god. I'd probably just anonymously help some medical researches discover the secrets of my immortality and then quietly disappear.
Anywho, I see your point. Maybe I'm just a power-mad maniac. But somewhere, somehow, by some freak event, you would be found out. It would take years of planning an alibi of how the immortality McGuffin was found, and arguing about the possible moral ramifications. Somehwere a long the line somebody: a janitor, drunken scientist, 4chan hackers, anything could ruin your quiet existence.
Also, if you get married, try and explain your immortality to your ageing wife on your 22nd anniversary. You still look like your 29 years old...
Just come out of the immortal closet and, most likely by force, send the media, government agents and religious fundamentalists packing.
