>>I wanna have my brain plasticized, then placed in a giant clear acrylic block after I kick the bucket. That way it can preserve all of my neural connections for a time it can be scanned and a digital copy of myself can be instanced.

Facebook has $2,000,000,000 they can dedicate to that project. There are some personal secrets they haven’t yet mined.

Many rules, usually the remains, not preserved, are kept together and cremated.

Difference is the chicago employee was an unwilling participant, forced retirement. /jk

[Secret Agent Man]

That was a brutal severence package.

An olive loaf is more intelligent than these socialist Congresscritters.

circa 1960. I had a Visible Man back in the day.

I guess that’s more picturesque than scrapple.

When I get deli meat sliced I try to stretch my budget by asking that all of my slices be single sided only.

Your deli meat is cut into Mobius strips?

That must be a unique meat slicer!

Or someone cheats with meat glue?

Or you’d end up “living” with Dave Lister and a humanoid descended from his cat.

This is why I don’t have a facebook account, so it forces facebook to do that. Then something like this happens:

I’m good at annoying people in RL, so I’d do a good job being a Rimmer to someone’s Lister.

I would develop an appreciated for hot gespachio soup and Hammond organs!

Any way your slice it, this is strange.

[Veto!]

I believe you can only receive a transplant from someone older than. you are. I received a cornea from some. unknown recipient when I was 60, so that cornea is older than I am. The rest of me is in perfect shape.

I’m very old and extremely healthy, take no prescription meds. My doc calls me a Super Ager.

I’ve decided to be an organ donor. Just think of the many lives I can save with my perfect kidneys, liver, heart, lungs, bone marrow, etc, older people who would otherwise die. AB negative blood, the universal donor.

Music for the hacking process? Not a bad idea. Frank Sinatra might do, or Leonard Cohen....

I think I would rather see the person cut into thin slices. I had to eat too much of crap like that when I was a kid.

[piasa]

If the woman had a ...souse... I wonder what he’d think of this?

You'll just end up blowing all of your quatloos betting on combat among passing starship crews.

What if those mad millennial scientists decided, as a joke, to take the digitalized you, BleachBit out your conservative and common sense sections, and replace those sections of you with various digitalized sections mined from the cranial depths of the socialist icon, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?

[DUMBGRUNT]

With some fava beans and a nice chianti?
