I was bored today at work and I started to think about immortality. How I would love it, how I would hate it. Many people would KILL for immortality. But when you think about it: you live forever, you can never feel the physical or mental anguish of death. You are immune to diseases that can cause death. That's something good. But: You see the ones you love die, you will see how our world is destroyed, you could end up in a state of mental anguish from the stress of how your life is, never tasting death, begging for it to end your cruel immortal life, so you can never see another loved one die while you stay young forever...
If I would have immortality with absolutely NO WAY of dying EVER, no thx, sticking around on this shithole forever is fucked up, especially if earth is nomore and you wander in space gasping for air for eternity.... If there would be a way to kill myself, that only I know of than YES absolutely.
If you were Immortal you could then later find out how to save your friends and cure diseases and help them live better or something. Or you could take over the world and cause pain and destruction *shrug* I for one would love to be Immortal~ The only way that would suck though if someone captured you and locked you up in like a cell where they would never let you out or something.
I figure it like this. You think it'll be good for a while, but after seeing your loved ones die, you start to wish for death. Then you find more and more love interests...and each passing century, you wish you could turn the clock back and just have been mortal...
If you are immortal, does that mean you have like METAL skin so bullets don't kill you? And you can't be cut? Does it also mean if you fell off a cliff, it would be like jumping on a pillow? Could you really deal with the fact that you are the most dangerous human being on the face of the planet? I wouldn't be able to. I would literally use my immortal powers to swim to the bottom of the ocean and bitch slap me some fish and I would discover the deepest parts of this and that. I would have eternity! w00t before I go insane. The relationship aspect is what makes it depressing

Nothing physical changes. You simply can't be killed, your wounds heal regularly, and you don't age at all.
Everything would get sooo boring eventually. You'll go insain. No thanks.
I don't think so.... I would first spend first 100-200 years at earth THEN, when we have good enough Tech to travel out side of earth, you can find all kind of shits out there!! Out of space weed!
3 am here.. i have no idea wtf i am talking about.
i know what you are talking about. so much shit to do. Plus you could do anything you wanted. You would be a living god. Rule the world forever doesnt sound so bad. Yes love ones will die.. and it will suck. Love no one. or get temporary love if you know what i mean ...
I would want to be immortal. If i ever got tired of life, i would just take some drug to make me go to sleep for a long long time. When i wake up, i dunno.
hmmm at the begginning i woulda hated iommortality, but now what u guys are sayin makes it seem pretty cool, hmmmm, i wish i was INVINCIBLE to like physical pain and like bullets like superman!!!!!!!! by the way, i dont really know what im talkin about or if invincibility is the same as immortality
immortality would own for a long while. Then, you would see your loved ones pass away and would wonder, what would happen if i died? What does it feel like when you die? Whats the reason for life?
