    Seriously if you had an eternity to live and you would no longer age from where you are now, what would you do?

    Also if you had one chance, just one to choose not to live forever and remain a mortal would you take it?

    Also any injury you would sustain would not be permanent.

    I wouldnt go for it. Just think how lonely you'd be once you lost everyone you loved and you had to keep going on and on.

    take every untaken road i've never taken because life is otherwise too short to do so. and take every college course i've ever wanted to, without declaring a major, even if i had to audit to do that. and of course REALLY learn how to live off the land and do that. though i'd also put togather a bit of tecnology in a cave somewhere. at least a laptop with wind and solar power to run it.

    oh i'd build houses and little trains for other people too. i'd be the eternal tinkerer. which is to say more or less the same things i'd like to be doing now only i'd have forever to do them so i could positively adamantly refuse ever to have to be in ANY kind of a hurry.

    i might try to experiment with growing a tail, fur, pointy furry ears and a more critter like face.

    i might set up mass production of my two sizes of little ridable trains, the hernia gauge and the just big enough to ride inside multiple unit minivan sized 'park trains' to replace cars wherever for village and neighborhood transit.

    i'd get heavily involved in sustainable alternative tangible infrasturcture projects, certainly the engineering and possibly the politics of it as well. the time for this is definately comming, and if i had forever i'd be already in the thik of that right now.

    i suppose i'd get my fcc 3rd and become a volunteer broadcaster for my favorite little alternative radio station too.

    Yes, I would.
    I can also almost guarantee I would not get bored.

    depends

    probably I'd go for it. Eventually I'd probably try and find a way out, but until then, I'd have a hell of a good time

    besides, my boyfriend says he can't die, I might as well make myself invulnerable-like too

    conquer the rest of the mortal humans and have them build me a rocketship so that I can fire myself into the sun long after I become insane with boredom long after all other lifeforms have died out
