Would you want to know the date of your own death?

Hell no.

Too true.

I'm a paranoid mess as is I wouldn't need that to increase they paranoia.

of course i'd like to know when.

easier to get finances together then for retirement etc.

Do I get a Death Note or something?

You can't know the date of your own death with a Death Note, only those of others.

I know that , I'm just asking if I get anything for the biggest spoiler in the world.

Yes, so I can do whatever I want legal or illegal the day before my death.

Yes, only so I could then be a dick and create a time paradox by instantly killing myself to alter the future.

It would just be a stupid stress factor

I choose yes, because then I can become Batman and not worry about the whole pesky problem of probably dying from fighting crime.

Absolutely. I wouldnt try to stop my death or anything because I am sure that type of thing is unstoppable. I would just take the final couple months of my life to do what I want and just take time for myself. I would quit my job, go places, see my family, eat all my favorite foods, and just mess around in general. Knowing that information would be freeing in a way.

It's a paradoxically impossible scenario. What would happen if I then jumped off a building, if it couldn't change?

But no, I wouldn't. I like the idea of not knowing.

You wouldnt be able to bring yourself to jump.

I would not like to know when I am going to die, but I'd love to know how I am going to die. That would really keep me on my toes. "Drowned in a bowl of Manhattan Clam Chowder? ~ Time to switch to New England style."

Hell yes. Since when i was a kid, i get paranoid about when i'm going to die. Knowing when would make me change some stuff in my life, but i would enjoy it more.

The goal with my polls is to find questions where the results are relatively even, like a 50/50 split (like this Matrix pill poll). I'm disappointed this was not one of the questions, but at least it isn't totally one-sided.

sure i would enjoy to know that. do nothing really.

Yes of course, it would be awesome and I can never understand why people say no to this question.

because it would drive you crazy trying to make every moment count, which is something you can't do in real life while making a living. Unless you are like rich before it happens.

Lucky for me I'm not worry about death. I ain't got much to live for anyway.

This would be my case.

No, I would freak myself out with that information.

That sounds like it came right out of Max Payne 3.

Those that answered yes: I will have you know that you are all awful people.

No. I like surprises.

I don't believe my life to be dictated by predetermined destiny or fate, so no i would not want to know because if i did know the exact moment of my death i would no longer be the master of my own fate.

No. I take solace in the fact that I might not wake up in the morning. It reduces my stress to think that I could have a surprise liquidation of all my problems at any time. In the words of Joey Pants "Ignorance is bliss."

Sure, how could that be a bad thing. It would just make you realize what you may or may not need to prioritize. If I know I'm going to die next year, then I'm going to alter my lifestyle to get the most out of that year as I possibly can. On the other hand if I was going to die in a year and I was not able to know that, I would keep living my life thinking I'm going to live decades on and then maybe I won't have experienced as much as I wanted to in life.

Same thing applies to the opposite scenario. If I know I'm going to die at 70 or something, then I know I can take this time while I'm young to plan out what I want to do or take the time when I'm young to explore the world because I know I have a lot of time later. I guess it also depends or not, and to to what degree, you obsessively worrying about whether or not you are spending your time efficiently.

I already know the date when everyone dies. It's 7/20. 終ノ空

Only if it's relatively soon. If it ends up being 50 years from now eff that.

No. I'd probably want to know how though
