I’ll start by saying that I’d get rid of the need to shit. I’m pretty sure everyone can agree that it’s unpleasant.

    I would like to correct the gut-brain connection. 95% of the time our gut tells our brain that it wants something, and it’s trying to say it wants water, but the brain hears that the gut is hungry.

    needing food. that would free up a lot of time and money, no input = no output. no dishes, no stove or fridge, no need for a dishwasher, then on the other end, no need for TP, or even a toilet!

      If you’re still regenerating tissue, your body is still producing weight. Drastically reduced (I’d guess by 75% total, of which 2/3 is dead digestive bacteria you’d no longer need), but still existent.

      Fun fact, you don’t defecate out weight loss, either. You exhale carbon in CO2

    Surprised nobody said cell degradation.

    You now can live for as long as you’re not killed whilst physically keeping an appearance of an ~30 y.o. This also technically prevents cancer.

      In the end there can be only one!

      I like this, but you can’t have kids and be immortal, that’s a recipe for overpopulation.

      Would enjoy not aging past adulthood (or not past 45, that was my “vampire age”), but life has to end unless you want all the same people around forever and no or very few new ones.

    Remove sneezing. If only because I find people wishing me “bless you” to be the most useless & meaningless human interaction I can think of.

    How about your bless my farts, Ryan, you purposeless dingbat.

    Remove the need to exercise, like an anaconda. The ability to just lay around doing nothing and still be ripped to the max. That would be cool!

        Following the spirit of my post, I would assume that toenails would no longer receive damage and would hopefully last through a person’s lifetime.

        Side thought, it would be nice if teeth didn’t rot…

        What ever did happen with the dude that had an artificial replacement penis made on his left arm anyways?

        Shit, it looked like it was totally ready for transplant to its final destination, but then COVID lockdown came along and surgery was postponed…

        🤷‍♂️

            Yeah, I saw a video clip of him on that other site years ago. Apparently he had lost his penis due to some sort of infection, so he had doctors reconstruct a very spot on penis-like member using the skin on his left arm.

            Sure enough, by the time it was fully formed and ready for transplant, COVID lockdown came along and his surgery was postponed.

            From what I recall, dude at least seemed to have a pretty good sense of humor about the whole situation.
