Honestly, what I'm really curious is how far medical science will be by then. Considering how effective prosthetics are getting, and how much progress is being made with 3D printers, who's to say that in 50 years, I won't be able to get an exact replica of my heart printed, and two brand new, perfectly-fitting knees?

I'm excited for that, 'cause then I'd have grandkids potentially and they are so much fun I could show them all these things from the early 21st century that would probably be so foreign to them by then. I'd definitely mess with 'em. Force 'em to listen to my life story. Get 'em lots of LEGOs :P I'm excited about old age, I mean, come on. Not dying young? Sounds good to me!

If you can hold out long enough, you can make it until we achieve immortality, overpopulate the earth, realize life is meaningless without death and exponentially increase the suicide rate because we've robbed ourselves of the ability to wait for natural death.

 

Bonus points if you have to delete yourself when the time comes.

The thought of growing old just weirds me out to the point where I don't want to think about it. Heck, I can't even think about. I don't even know where I'll be ten years from now, much less 40-50.

GET OFF MY L-waitaminute...

 

Where am I?

 

(I acknowledge that I shall grow old. If I am not senile by then, I shall act as such to troll the younger generations)

I highly doubt people that life needs death to have meaning. Like, at all.
