Caught in the lattice work
i no longer wanna die.
so, let us set out on the quest for immortality together. i wonder what the best recipe for eternal life would be...
- a loving kiss from a vampyre, lustful and deep?
- a shimmering fountain, gushing with the liquid of life everlasting?
- a smurf toastie on wholewheat?
- making your 15mins last always?
who knows? but, as we all oughta know, the experience is in the journey, not the destination.
what would you do to be immortalised?

Transfer my personality/psyche into a giant robot of ULTIMATE SUPER POWERS.
Nobody in Generation Jones looks as old as they are.
(Well, some people do, but you know what I mean...)
Most people think I'm 39. I am fifty.
This is because we were bombarded with commercials for Quaker Oats products: e.g., Cap'n Crunch, Quisp, Life, Quake, etc.
Secretariat sired 5,000 horses, so oats are truly the "right thing to do." And, for that matter, he's not Generation Jones but Wilford Brimley does not look 72.
Also, the preservative BHT is present in most Quaker Oats products.
So eat 10 bowls of Cap'n Crunch everyday. You might have to eventually get lipo'ed, but you will be a very young looking lipo patient.
(Or, you can buy BHT at the health food store.)
I much prefer being mortal. Life seems too long as it is, and vampires piss me off.
it's all good in any event, death, ole pal. either way, we will be hanging out together for quite a while yet.
j.. would it be like those nano-bots in GITS? they were kewl.
mr wizard.. that sounds gross. and expensive.. lipo is a horrible horrible thing. but, i guess people need soap. [ever see fight club?]
morb. many things in this life piss you off.. self-destruction seems more like a way of life for you really.. death is your life.. twisted.
was it meant in terms of being remembered??.......i want to be remembered for hmmmmm this is hard.......remembered with a smile
I wouldn't like to be remembered for anything specific. Imagine being remembered for only one thing. Even if it's something great, your entire existence would be defined by one single event (say, 'discovering' gravity for Isaac Newton).
All the small things and all the details are forgotten.
I want to see my name in the small print on a movie poster, straight after the words: Based on the book by.
I agree with Morbid,
life is long enough-
wait till you get over 40
then the real fun begins.
I'm glad you chose to live,
got so much to experience still.
(but not vampirism)
Hang tough, kiddo.
40? that seems like an eternity from now.. :)
i seem a bit extremist. [bi-polar? probly not..] just a tad morbid, with a dash of cynicism and zest of weariness.
im not suicidal. [not since high school anyway] but i think on life and death, and the grey area in-between, quite often.
is there a point to living forever? or being eternally famous for one thing only..? who knows.
maybe the important thing -- the only thing, is to live the best you can, the best you know how.
and enjoy every second.
as, this too will pass.
Hello Neko.
That was a great post, and a taxing question...
Honestly, I'm not sure. Of the options you suggest, I think I'd choose the vampire.
Hmmm...
No, it would be like Optimus Prime or a mega-zord minus the Ranger infestation.
i would go with the vampire...perhaps given wings and the power to absorb others energy...or be the fastest immortal.......
