I suppose if this site is still running when I'm dead, poeple will still bring up random threads that'll probably have something I insanely wrote on it.

Yeah, and then they'll add "I wonder how Froggy is doing..."

Isn't it nice though, having a Legacy Preservation Machine at our disposal? The whole Internet thing is cool - it gives us mortals a chance at immortality far greater than just books or photographs. As long as our words and likenesses are stored on a computer somewhere we'll still live ...

Now I'm off to post about stupid pick-up lines.

I'm donating my body to science when I die. So, when people ask what became of me, they will be told that I am now at Harvard.

Everyone has a legacy, good or bad. Everyone touches others' lives in some way and has some effect on them.

I hope my legacy will be that I have brought peace, comfort and laughs to some of the people I have met along the way.

Feels good I never held an opinion that everything I have been through is something unique that no other human has ever experienced. Its a feeling few will ever understand. But like I said, I am nothing and that takes guts to admit.

You will be forgotten. It does not matter how nice or evil you were. People will forget you. Its why you should live your life in solitude. Its just my .02 cents.

If nothing else, you had an incredibly minute impact on the planet with each step you take and action.

I don't know if a legacy has to be about people remembering you, rather having some kind impact can be a legacy. Based on what I'm reading as far as definitions go, it can vary.
