Poll: Immortality, with a catch

[Professor Putricide]

I'd go for it. I'd do it in the same sorta way Dexter does (Not the child with a laboratory, look it up if you don't know.)

 

[steevee]

But, that's not immortatlity! I mean, I could only live for another 6 billion years or so.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Sure.
I'd kill murderers, child molesters, serial rapists.
It works out great. I have infinite time to get rid of them, and when I die, the world is a much better place because the murderers, child molester and serial rapists are all dead.

And if anyone says "But that makes you just as bad." I can point out that when they're all gone I will die.

 

[Bloodtrozorx]

So to live forever I must kill once a year? So I'm like a vampire in an abstract sense, so long as I "feed" once a year I am immortal. This murder...can it be done with a firearm or am I down to choking a victim to death? I doubt I could accomplish this task up close and personal.

 

[neoontime]

Eh, no problem if I only kill the bad people, although I can see where this would go bad since I tend to antagonize people who cut in line.

 

[Guffe]

Nope.
I wouldn't be able to the first times and that's what counts, if you kill someone it gets easier every time (so I heard from interviews with people who kill) but I couldn't do the first.
Also there is the fun aspect of killing 100 persons somehow, like blowing down a building and immediatelly getting 100 years. But I wouldn't do it.

 

[Trippy Turtle]

Hmmm... Probably not. I would be very tempted but the killing would take a lot of work. Now if I got the rest of the years they were going to live... then maybe.
Also Reaver was a great character. One of the 3 characters to get a reaction out of me.

 

[GundamSentinel]

I would become a doctor and open a euthanasia clinic. I'd be doing something good for a lot of people.

you'd never die, there will always be people who would murder and rape for the giggles.

 

[CODE-D]

But the police would catch and I know Id be in jail for at least a year -_-!
kinda negates the point.
How bout I gain the lifespan of the person I murder.

Agreed on this. I'd most probably start out like this then eventually go mad, turn evil and become a super villain/psychopath. That is the only problem with good intentions and immortality. After a certain point you would just stop caring.

Eventually someone would make a small offhand comment about me or cut in front in line and then I'd make their head explode.
Messy.

 

[Hawk of Battle]

Immortality is a terrible power, why would anyone ever want it under any circumstances? If I could just get the telekinesis on its own then yes.

 

[projectX42]

Ultra-powerful telekinetic powers, peak physical condition and pseudo-immortality for a year if I kill someone?

...You know there's this thing called the army, right? Where you get paid to shoot people? Hell, outside of the army you could always just assassinate people with your telekinetic powers - kinda hard to pin the murder on you when there isn't any physical evidence, right?

that's what i was thinking you could be the super soldier who single handedly wins the war and makes his life span a thousand years longer

 

[Wintermoot]

mortality makes us alive

 

[spartan231490]

God yes. Only for the strong telekinesis. I have no desire to be immortal, but kill one person and gain a body that won't age beyond peak and strong telekinesis until I die, hell yeah. I can find one person I know the world will be better off without.

 

[runnernda]

Heh I think after too long people would start to look like your avatar OP.

Question about it though, would abortion doctors live forever?

Oh come on, dude, you had to take it there? Not cool.

OT: I don't think I would. I'm not a particularly violent person (except in games. I will eff you up), so I don't think I could seriously injure somebody, let alone kill them.

 

[hazabaza1]

Nah, no need for immortality.
Also I laugh at all the people going "I'd go and kill alllllll the bad people! Or people in prison!" Yes, because life is a completely black and white, good vs evil situation.

 

[Thee Lost One]

It's not an ideal bargain, but honestly I can't see a downside considering what I have planned. I'd take it. I know my first couple of targets too.
