I'm counting heavily on transhumanism, because when you die you're no longer animate matter, and I've rather enjoyed being animate matter.
As you lose consciousness for the last time you will see a green light, and that will be the light from the soylent green machine convyer belt you have just been thrown onto. Nice to think i will literally be feeding people in the future. ha
I am considering adding a proviso to my living will that states that no extraordinary means may be taken to keep me alive, UNLESS said means involve transferring my consciousness into a supercomputer or rebuilding me into a badass war-cyborg.
A laparoscopic procedure wouldn't involve anything going down your throat; generally speaking it would involve a small incision near the navel, and the instruments would be fed into your abdomen through that incision. It would be done under general anesthesia. And in any event, I've had multiple colonoscopies and endoscopies, and for every single one they've knocked me out (I've got a similarly bad gag reflex).
Pfft. We are all made of stars, as Moby (and possibly Carl Sagan) said. We're also ultimately the universe's roadkill, imho. Er... On the other hand, that means that life is a unique opportunity, a perfect storm of chemical and biological happenstance, or something.
Oh. I must be thinking of another procedure then. This was more than a decade and a half ago. All I remember was the doctor wanting to shove tube down my throat and take a picture of my insides when this problem first appeared. I tried, but couldn't do it.
"We are stardust, we are golden We are billion-year-old carbon...." Well, more like ten billion, but whatever.
Done now report for duty,.. I am oh. OH so much more then cosmic dust I I am infinity divided by zero and I am just starting,..I am the one and know I am the one,... So what,.. I am more then most of the multiverses on a down day On a good day I know it is all real and true,.. Back to answering the question,,, in this edit hehehe I am not dead but not alive,.. I was not born and will not die I will always exist because I always exist right now,,,,I know this now you know
No, then you'll die slightly after going into the light....and into the grille....maybe into the coupler. Orphan Black episode 1 is good source material for this.
right right you get it ... there is always more to be... I am more than I am... when I say I am possible it is really I'mpossible or impossible ..
