There must be another use of which I don't quite know. Medical, perhaps?

Did we? I haven't bothered to read anything past the third page. Edit: Indeed we have. I'm forgetful.

Waking up and having to go but can't because of morning wood. Wanting to walk around the house in boxer shorts but can't because of boner.

I made too much food and now I can't finish it so I'm gonna have to throw the rest out. Edit: Also, I planned to have some ice-cream after the meal but I'm full.

Turning on the tap for warm water but it's freezing cold and takes ages before it actually gets warm. Cold toilet seat is cold. No ice-cream left in the freezer. I'm shivering cold so I turn on the heater, but after a while it becomes boiling hot so I turn it off. Then it becomes too cold again... Late night munchies and I live within walking distance of a McDonald's but I can't be bothered going. Loudness between different videos and sound files is inconsistent. Have to constantly change volume level. Internet speed is slow. tasvideos.org going offline. Sigh, I have it so tough.

Would someone from 1811 want to live today? (Or even further back (e.g. 1611) because the rate of social/technological advancement is exponential)
Interestingly, on the wikipedia page for Cryogenics that Tub linked to, it states that Benjamin Franklin harbored some regret that technology and science was still so primitive that his body could not be preserved in order to see what America would be like one-hundred years on. I posed a similar hypothesis in the IRC channel: What would George Washington (or Thomas Jefferson, for that matter) think, should they see the United States, and indeed the world, today? Or if Newton met Einstein. It's fundamentally the same question but from a historical point of view.

Admittedly, I'm not familiar with the repurcussions of being cryogenically frozen, but I included the clause where, if one were to choose to be frozen, they would awaken with only half their original life span. Mainly because I thought there should be some sort of repurcussion in exchange for the ability to witness the future. The question is one more of philosophy rather than one of pragmatism. Thank you for all the responses so far; I've enjoyed reading them. My apologies to Lex and Tub for slightly editing the topic after you both posted.

Just a little thought I had: You can continue living as you are now, with your friends and family, until you die of old age, which for most people here I would surmise to be hopefully around 2060-2080. or Be cryogenically frozen and be awoken in 2211. However, because of the strain caused on your body by the freezing process, after you wake up you will only live half as long as you would normally. Your body will be kept in a top-secret vault under heavy security for the duration of the two-hundred years, with the machine programmed to unfreeze you in the summer/winter of 2211. Everyone alive today will eventually die and you will awaken to whatever kind of world awaits you in 2211. How much is the future worth to you? (Edit: changed it from 100 to 200 years.)

As I find the topic title appropriate, I will therefore use this topic as a platform to conduct a survey, rather than create another topic for it. "What makes us who we are?" The survey is with regards to 'identity'. On a scale of 1 to 10 (low to high), rate the importance of the following ten factors in terms of how they have helped to shape who you are today. The emphasis is placed on who you are, so there are no right or wrong answers. (Copy and paste the list below into your post.) - family and upbringing: - friends, peer groups: - sexuality: - aspirations: - education, profession: - financial status: - culture: - religion, beliefs: - geography, climate: - scientific and technological advances: If you like, briefly state any reasons you have for giving a factor that particular rating. I appreciate your time.

Based on those JRPGs you listed, I will suggest Tales of Vesperia and Eternal Sonata. On another note though, I've played Star Ocean: The Last Hope and I am currently playing through Final Fantasy XIII and I can't decide which has the worser writing. I might give the award to the former, and the latter can receive the award for worst hairstyles in a JRPG. I don't even know why I bother with these kinds of games anymore. JRPGs aren't what they used to be.

You should verify that with Guinness World Records. They'll gladly accept it if it defeats the current record.
