When I was a kid, I used to dream of immortality. I was terrified of death and oblivion. Now I'm 31 and I'm like "jesus 40 more years of this shit?"
Any other old(er)fag feels?
>tfw no one knows these feels
Same OP, I watched a lot of Life of After People and fantasized about being immortal and seeing the world change like it did in the show
I would happily live forever just to watch shit happen. I don't want to get involved or have to do stuff. But I'd hate to miss out on seeing all that great future tv. And ww3.

Yeah and that sounds nice and all, except you have bills and colds/flu and shit for all eternity.
those 40 years will feel like 10 years at most

why would you care about any of that if you can't die? live in a cardboard box on the side of the street

Yeah. There's proper immortality and then there's the idea of trudging along and existing forever.
I'm only 20, but the thought of another 45 years as a worling citizen make me want to kill myself. I've only been a member of the working class for a year and I'm already just fucking exhausted with life. The thought of working my ass off every day for low pay depresses me, and the depression makes it impossible for me to feel energetic or motivated enough to work towards a better career. Society has literally brought me to the point where just dying would be easier than putting in effort.

That's because you know your job is pointless busy work. Like the majority of jobs since technology passed the point where most things could be automated.
People are only working because of a vicious cycle, tradition thing. Your parents suffered their whole lives working, so you have to. Even if society can be structured in such a way that most people could live a life of leisure, it wouldn't be fair on the people who have already worked or on the people who would still have to work.
