It's the Future!!!!!

 So it's the beginning of that wonderful time that happens every four years when everyone asks me "what do you want the future to be?" Yes it's election time, but that's not why I'm writing this blog though it does kind of pertain to it in the fact that it has to do with my response i give when asked that by people which is "why do i care? it's not like I'm going to live forever."

 It was after one such exchange that i began to think "what if i could live forever? what would i want from from it?"  the more i thought about it the more perplexed I became.

 after about two days of this I came to a very interesting and slightly disturbing answer which was "I would want to see how much more fucked up we as human society could go." because when people talk about the future they talk about all the good things that could happen like AIDS, and Cancer being cured or paraplegics being able to walk again or even humanoid looking robots walking among us, no one every says "with this kind of technology I'm gonna do some messed up stuff?"

 I'm not saying that don't great things like to happen but I just starting thinking about it in that sense because if we can't even figure out things like who has the "right" to marry how can we expect things to just magically get better with new technology? maybe i'm just a pessimistic person or really messed up.
Either way at least i came to some kind of answer on this question. What about you guys? ever had one of those questions or this question come to you? what answers did you guys come too?
