If it was possible to be told when and how you are going to die, then yes, of course I would want to know.
However, I'm pretty sure there's no telling on when you are going to die. I can just die right now if I wanted to..., or if some fucked up shit just happened.
Unless I'm sick in hospital and terminally ill then I wouldn't want to know. For someone to tell me that I'm going to die in thirty or forty years would take the fun out of life. I live every day as if it's my last, so knowing would change that. The ridiculous things I do, I do because I'm out looking for a good time. I'm out looking for a good time because I never know when it could all be over.
