If you could live to be 500 years old

[otherlander]

but you'd have to stay inside your house for the rest of your life, would you do it?

[Bucky]

1. I just turned 44. So you're hitting a little close to home for me.

I'm just 456 years shy of your gloomy scenario, sir.

[GOPisEvil]

2. No. I like my house, but not that much.

Plus, I don't think living to 500 sounds that appealing.

3. Can I have my computer?

It wouldn't be much different than my life now.

[otherlander]

5. Yes you can.

[China_cat]

22. Then I'm good.

[MonkeyFunk]

4. can my dog and cats live for 500 years, too?

if so, yeah, I'll take it. Oh... and is the cable bill paid?

[otherlander]

6. Yes they can.

No, it's not.

[AlCzervik]

7. no.

[lizziegrace]

8. No

too restless to stay in my house for 5 days let alone 500 years.

[mainegreen]

9. Yes, but I would build a reverse-house.

The outside would be in, the inside would be out.

[otherlander]

11. Would the people inside need instructions

on how to use toothpicks?

[mainegreen]

17. Yes.

[Q3JR4]

14. Hmm....

Who knew that Wonko the Sane lived in Maine?

:shrug:

[mainegreen]

18. The dolphins, that's who.

[bigwillq]

10. No (nt)

[Q3JR4]

12. I'm 25 years old

and I think that 500 years in the same house would be boring.

[SPKrazy]

13. NOT NO

BUT HELLL NO!!!!

[Deja Q]

15. YES.

I've done over 35 standing on my head. Other people seem to be happy too. :7

[PassingFair]

16. As long as I get to quit my job. Yes. nt

19. Only if the people I love also live to be 500 years old

My aunt is 91 years old, and she's outlived almost everyone she really loved. She's outlived two husbands, two of her three children, all of her siblings, all of her cousins, and most of her friends. She's a remarkably strong woman, no dementia, and still walking with a walker, but she misses so many people that she loved.

Longevity is not all that it's cracked up to be.

21. if i

could add more rooms/features,and if i lived in a mansion, and if i could hire personal chefs to make my favorte restaraunt foods, and if i could have my family and pets with me, but have breaks from them when i want, then yea.


How's THAT for a run-on sentence? :)

[midlife_mo_Jo]

23. I agree with the sentiments!

Don't forget the indoor pool, and a professionally equipped exercise room. If you're gonna' live that long, you want to do so in good shape! :D

[Fox Mulder]

[Mojambo]

24. Yes. n/t
