The choice of answers do not reflect the poll title. To answer the title, I can feel a pulse, so it's the latter.

How could someone be bored to death? Do people commit suicide from boredom or something? Or are they just so bored that their heart won't work fast enough? There probably would be external blood pumps if that was a problem.

That reminds me of an idea of mine for a photoshopped pic for if worth1000 ever ran an "if silent PC enthusiasts rulled the world contest" or something along those lines: someone with their veins hooked up to a reserator.

Hmmm... if someone was really bored and also really insane they just might try that(not just the photoshoping but actually connecting their veins to a reserator). I guess that's what bored to death must mean.

Dialysis doesn't work that way. ;)

I know, but it wouldn't matter that pumping your blood through a reserator would most likely polute it quickly because loosing 2.5 litres of blood would probably kill you, definitly if there was no one else around. Of course, you could save up an extra 2.5 litres of blood for this, but then you'd have time to sober up and rethink this.

Although this makes me wonder if having an extended blood supply could actually be beneficial. We were supposed to have cybernetics by now, damn all those sci fi people for getting our hopes up!

I am both bored to death AND tired. Which option should I pick?

Hey, this is a tricky question! Right now, I'm a bit tired because of overtime work... And the more I get tired, the more I get bored easily! :? Anyways, I chose "tired", but if you ask me the same question in a few days, I'll probably have a different answer...
