Fuck no. That is, unless this alien race is entirely made up of incredibly attractive women with large knockers, small waists and long curvy legs who just have to be pleased on an hourly basis.

I think you'd get tired.

Depends on when I get asked the question, and it depends on who's asking. If I'm around a psych ward and there's an alarm going saying someone's escaped and a stranger asked me, I'd probably say no. Also I would want it to be later in my life just incase I do get probed and anally tortured.

[Doctor Duffy]

Yeah, but only if I could Phone A Friend.

[Blase]

I wouldn't.

I assume, that if an alien race were advanced enough and wished to impart some type of knowledge upon me they wouldn't require me to take one of the largest chances in my life on a decision which can at best be described as dubious.

Sorry, I just don't want to end up in the obituary, and have a thread about me with the "You gonna get raped" picture posted somewhere in it.

Refer to the "Time Machine" episode of Upright Citizens Brigade.

I really do have a time machine
You have a cardboard box!

The person who comes up to you really has nothing to do with the question. The person isn't crazy, and really doesn't even have to exist in this hypothetical situation, it's just easier to say that someone told you this instead of you knowing it without anyone telling you. It just makes the question make more sense.

I guess what the question boils down to is are you willing to risk your life to partake in something that could end up being one of the most extrodinary things ever in the history of the human race.

FYI, myself I would say yes, the only thing I would give a second thought to would be my family. it would probably be hard on them if I just disappeared one day out of the blue.

[Pyro]

Id say no probably.

Only way id say yes is if I was like 60+ in age.

Earth is too good to me...and I like not knowing things...knowing everything takes the fun outta life...thats why i say fuck church id rather not give a shit than try to find out and devote part of my life to something that doens't matter.

Either way if I was old...damn right I would but right now...id rather enjoy this life.

[1080jibber]

I would have to say no, only because I would be asking myself "Why me?" They have one person to take and they ask me, why?.

But you would have to wonder about the type of technology the have, if they can travel the universe than there technology must be crazy back where they live.

[Short Hand]

Yes, life needs a little something.
