I'd spin and spin and spin, just to rob the earth angular momentum, the centuries would whiz by becoming millennia, but eventually I'd fight back the dawn >

What? It passes the time.

I'd probably go for live forever; the main reason is I'd love to see future generations.
Main & raiding character: Elchali, Holy Paladin
Die before getting the chance to finish Mass Effect trilogy? No way. And I'm only half-kidding.
I'd be just way too curious to see how this all ultimately comes to an end and everything until then.
And I don't think I'd just be looking at an eternity of boredom. Human mind has a way of coping with things. Long enough time in the lonely darkness of space, and I'd just go insane, start imagining things, maybe slip into a comatose state, or live an eternity thinking my dreams are real. This doesn't sound boring to me at all.
I didn't see it as "are you afraid of dying" so much as "what would you choose for this difficult choice?"
And if you meant it like that you should have left out "I'll pass." Made it sound like you were passing up the deal in its entirety. But, whatever floats your boat.
I'd isntantly sign a contract allowing me to live forever.
I rather die. I rather be dead than drifting off in space lonely for billions of years. Good luck getting to "earth 2" if one is ever even found.
Live forever so I could go on with world domination, etc.
i would like to live forever just so that I can hit on high school girls all the time. On the other hand, I would also start sparkling after a few hundred years, which is a major turn-off. I'd rather die
I'd rather die right now. Living forever would be great until something happens to you that makes your quality of life go down the toilet, then you are stuck like that forever.
This thread reminds me of the movie In Time.
wouldnt you like to see the world in like 100 years
Skelington would die now, though he would preferably die later. Living forever with no chance of passing would be awful.
Die right now.
Preferably while I sleep. If I really wanted to live, I'd ask proof of this via a receipt and a letter showing why I wanted to and if I was up to the task. Saying "but you came first!" is not a good argument to me.

well I was told a few days ago that people who aren't happy with themselves shouldn't enjoy life. So after using an abacus and a notepad I have come to the conclusion that it would be better that I die right now.
Plus you act like instant death destroys the space time continuum.
I would, but even a trillion years is short-term compared to "forever". Deciding to live forever to be able to see the world in 100 or 1000 years is like deciding to watch every videoclip ever recorded (including with high-speed cameras; including every single failed take in every single movie; including every little bit of recording on every cellphone or digital camera) just so that you can see one of the frames in one of the cilps/movies. That frame is/those 2100's are just so incredibly insignificant and not worth it.
If i could live forever i would love it,as a guy with little emotions and realising death is a part of life i can accept people passing but i would use the no pain no death thing to be a kind of superhero to help people out in need and stop bank robberys and the like but after this planet is gone i would enjoy going to new worlds and being there superhero,kind of like the Titans in WoW just less of the ordering of the world,more monitoring it till it expires.
P.S. As u can tell my imagination is stupidly high,in the over 9000 regions!
Probably Live Forever
Im sure it would be hell in about 100 years time but im too happy with my girlfriend atm to die x]
