The Futurama Question

[Kiddo716]

So everyone has watched Futurama and knows how Fry came to be in the future (falling into a cryogenic pod for a 1,000 years). My question to you is, would you willingly freeze yourself for a 1,000 years in a similar fashion?

Pros:
- See all the cool technology of the future without the wait
- Aliens walking among us, part of society
- Bender
- Banging one eye'd mutants

Cons:
- Everyone you know is dead
- Stuck in a menial job
- No money (unless you check up on your 1,000 year old bank account)
- Never really fitting into society because you are literally from a different time and will never fit.

So, who are the takers?

It's hard to say. I would like to experience that but not permanently.

Not without my dogs

could get your crazy nephew professor to revive them after they've been fossilized in dolomite.

 

[Opfer]

Depends. Does a magical wizard appear to give me this choice?

cryogenic pods, dude. let's assume those exist.

 

[VIP1349]

Yeah no thanks, I am fine with how things are now. The con of everyone being dead makes all the pros not worth it.

Oh and fuck that dog episode.

 

[Zer]

Pros:
- Banging one eye'd mutants

I can do that now tbf. I'll post my POF story on Sherdog sometime

 

[Diktaattori]

Might as well do it.

Shit job, no gf/wife, no kids, no responsibilities and most importantly no dog.

All hail Hypno Toad!

 

[PolishHeadlock]

Oh hell yeah

 

[Opfer]

cryogenic pods, dude. let's assume those exist.

Sorry bro, can't take it seriously without a magical wizard. Where's WorldofWarcraft when you need him?!

 

[KOQ24]

my curiosity would triumph, i just have to see how people live in a 1000 years

 

[Stradlater]

I'm in.

 

[AllHailKrull**]

Absolutely. without question.

 

[SafyreSchool**]

I don't have a wife or kids and my parents are at "that age" anyways, so yeah, I'd go in a heartbeat. Except I'd milk it and be a minor celebrity and go around giving lectures about what the past was like. That shit would guarantee you a Wikipedia page without having to shoot up a place of learning.

 

[PAUonePUNCH]

In an instant. I see no drawbacks for me.

 

[bosox32]

That Jurassic Bark episode should be banned

 

[Magooglie]

Yes
