    This is the main reason why, if you come across a genie in a lamp, you should probably not wish for immortality. You’re gonna be hellafuckin bored for a loooooooong time.

      I don’t want to imagine the level of procrastination I would have if I were immortal.

      I would wish for a life that ends when I want it to. Like the numenoreans had in LoTR

      From what I have read on the internet so far, it’s probably best to not wish for anything at all. Just throw it in the deepest ocean to do us all a favour.

        I suppose you could wish for all genies to be instantly annihilated. Maybe toss the GOP in there for good measure.

      Why? Are you bored now? If so, why is it a problem? If not, then what’s the problem?

        Spending Eternity either crushed to a point in the heart of black hole or drifting thru the darkness of space all alone with nothing to do or even anything to look at.

          There’s a bit to go yet before we get there. Can I have a few hundred years more first?
