    the thing i don't understand about this question, and there's been threads on this topic before, is that who ever i was, how would i not still be me?

    i'd have a different body, and that body would have a different history, but the me that is me, how would that not still be me?

    You would of course still retain you soul your spirit so to speak the real you, but your life would be completely different. Think of the soul as pure energy and consciousness which doesn't have any physical bearing on who you are in real life. Your physical being your body is basically your life support system in the material world to which your soul the real you is connected with. Your soul your consciousness reacts with your physical manifestation the life you are living.

    there's just no one who wouldn't be me if i were them, if you see what i mean. i'm not a gender, or even a species. i'm simply a combination of preferences which is aware of existing.
    that is what any of us are. that is why it is conceivable we might survive where memories might not.

    there are, i could make wild guesses about people, but there is no way for anyone to know anyone well enough to really know if we would have liked to have lived any of their lives.

    i'm sure i don't know anyone well enough to know if i would want to swap superfiscial identities with them. i don't mean to criticize the game.

    its not that i wouldn't ever want to play it. i just, think more about places, and even the places aren't like places that have names, usually.

    If I had to choose who I would rather be instead of me, it would be my other me when I'm on boomers

    If he were still alive, maybe Dennis Ritchie when he was young. Or maybe Linus Torvalds.

    Not really sure if I would want to be a animal or something like that. I think I would stay a human and girl ( I like being a woman ) I definetley wouldn't be as quiet (as I unfortunately am now ) I would like to experience a different life path than the one I am on now. I think I would basically like to be reincarnated into another human.

    not a who, but what surrounding circumstances of my life.
    now THAT is something i can think of i would like.

    being born, either with a lot of money, or on a world that did not require it,
    that might be good, but that alone would not be sufficient.

    i could have that and still grow up too messed up to enjoy it.

    so there would need to be either very few other people,
    or a culture that did not hate logic.

    and of course there would need to be a bountiful environment,
    which did not require a lot of anything to survive in it.

    but there would also be the means and inspiration to make things,
    enjoy making them, and enjoy their having been made and existing.

    i would want to be the me i would have been, in a world where anyone could go out and build anything that wasn't too close to anyone else they wanted,
    to live in that and call it their home. and the only transportation infrastructure would be solar powered narrow gauge trains, but lots of them, and their tracks everywhere.

    i keep trying, but there just really isn't anything in anyone else's life that i know about, that i would want to live their life in its entirety.

    there are other creative people who have succeeded in their creativity. i like that.
    but i still don't know of their lives being or having been one i would wish to trade with.

    just much more interesting to me about places in the sense of both environment and culture,
    then individual persons.
