You should not stick things into sockets.
You should not stand in front of rockets
Though you think you cannot die,
You’ll off yourself if you try.
You’d have to live long enough to invent a 19,200’s style death ray (just don’t use it on yourself).
I would become a costumed crimefighter. Of course, I’m a pretty non-threatening looking girl, so I would use the immortality to my advantage. For example, when the group of thugs I’ve confronted starts laughing at me, I would froth rattlesnakes out of my mouth or something.
Fight Boredom
or
Achieve Enlightenment
or
Achieve Enlightenment while Fighting Boredom
That’s a good point. And an awesome title.
That’s something else I’d do with immortality: collect titles. Not for my own self-satisfaction, but just to force uncomfortably long silences while I’m introduced at formal events.
Immortality and the boredom that comes with it is a recurring theme in Vampire stories. So besides getting rich… I would certainly make sure that I keep my mind active, my ideas fresh and avoid becoming a 200-300 year old conservative. Imagine someone who thinks that Slavery is normal living nowadays ?
After that I would take all the time in the world to know differente cultures and travel with no cares about the future… except of course what a few million in the bank provide in interest.
Floss regularly.
hang out with the dalai lama … and after a 100 or so years - believe in him … or beat the cr@p out of him
I would read Gulliver’s Travels.
I’d try to destroy every possible record in the Guinness Book. I would personally get a pretty good laugh out of it after all the work was done:
Longest Beard: Team of Scientists, 70 feet
Longest Time on a Pogo Stick: Team of Scientists, 200 years
Fattest Person Alive: Team of Scientists, 4815 lbs.
Tallest Person Alive: Team of Scientists, after cosmetic surgery, 20 ft.
I’d do pretty much what I’m doing now: work a bit, shop a lot. Drink martinis most nights. Do some karaoke on weekends. Buy my friends and family fun stuff. After they croaked, find some new friends and hopefully some new "aunts " and “uncles” and suchlike. Do some private creative writing. Read and take art lessons and learn weird old English Country dances.
I think the thing about immortality is, it isn’t exciting. You got to learn to live with it and make the best of it. Keep busy and not think too much about entropy. I guess.
I’d go to downtown la and punk some gang members, just like walk up to some crips and be like “ya’ll are some pussies…” but then again that might fall under suicide.
Immortal sounds pretty cool if all my family and friends were too, otherwise it could suck big time after the first 100 years or so and everybody I knew and/or cared about wold be dead or near dead…anyway my long terms plans would be to get as many different degrees, diplomas, certificates as I could.
Every year, take a poop in the Grand Canyon
Set foot on every inch of the planet
First of all, what do you mean “if”?
Second, I would find some sorority or similar organization. Every year I would get myself invited to their formal. If you made a flip book out of the past 100 years of photo’s, you would find me doing a little dance.
I think it’s a pretty cool idea. Sure friends and family dieing would suck, but you would meet new people.
