I don't want to live forever but I would like to be like Hidan from Naruto Shippuden where I could be stabbed or shot anywhere on my body and it wouldn't phase me one bit. It'd be so cool for my head to still function even if decapitated. "Bring my body to my head, would you? Pretty please stitch it back on?" :p

Immortality has pros and cons. I'm undecided.

Mine, too. I'd be working, eating, and playing NationStates and Runescape all day.

Oh, YES ! It's my number 1 wish too. I really want to see what the future has to offer, be it good or bad. By immortal, I assume that you cannot be killed too?

If the future is bright, well, nothing too bad. I can blend in with the civilization, though it'll be more like a caveman trying to figure out how things work in 2017.
If it is a dystopia, I will hide out in some cave, provided I don't need to eat or drink.

If multiverse does not exist, then I'm screwed, actually. I'll be drifting alone in a cold and void universe for goodness knows how long. That's a lot of time to drive someone into insanity.

I expect the conditions of vacuum would be sufficient for keeping an immortal that cannot be killed unconscious, so even if you wouldn't die you also wouldn't really experience it.

You think you have a good reputation now, imagine when you've been at it for a thousand years.

No tricks. Immortality, invincibility, and nothing else. No daybreaker shit or aging forever into a pile of sapient, living dust.
