I'd take the jail time. At least I wouldn't be wasting away. It may be difficult, but it's actually possible to progress as a person whilst incarcerated. I could lift weights, make friends, read books, and reflect upon my life. The problem with being in a coma for that long is that it just seems like a large portion of my life was completely wasted.

You don't necessarily hear everything in jail also. But its still better than being in a coma. So my choice is jail.

Hmmmm, 10 years fearing that a inmate may find me attractive or 10 years asleep with the downside of having to catch up with the news, rebuilding strength, and finding a decent job...... I think I may take coma as my final answer. At least I don't have to worry about a stain on my record that would really make it difficult to find a job......

Coma, but only slightly so. I chose coma because at least I would still be able to get a job after this is all over with. Take out this factor and then I would definitely choose jail.

It would be hard, but I would probably choose coma... Nobody would ask me pick up the soap. On the serious side, I wouldn't wanna spend 10 years in a place full of criminals...

I wouldn't mind 10 years of coma. World progress feels so slow when you're awake for most of it.

Being in coma would be like time traveling to the future, BUT while in jail you can still keep in touch with your family while in a coma they would worry about you and wondering if you'll ever wake up

Jail. At least then the taxpayers foot the bill.

Can you imagine the medical bill for 10 years in a coma?

I would rather spend 10 yrs in jail. My story, I have took revenge on 2 men who killed my all of my friends at a party, I brutally murdered them. Got arrested, throw in jail for 10 years, meet some new friends, they teach me a life lesson, avoid being raped. Got out jail, became nice.

Exactly this. I'd completely lose it if I was told I was in a coma for ten years.

Jail, without even thinking twice about it. O:

We can have an electronic entertainment system (PS3, Xbox360 etc.) in our cells, i only have to share my cell with 1 other person of shared gender, i can read all the books i want to, i can do manual labour, putting money aside for when i get out, buy sweets or cigarettes in the prison kiosk, get three free meals a day, study university material; attending classes and taking diplomas, even a bachelors in a field of my choosing, make new friends, expanding my social circle, have the chance to experience life from a culturally unique POV, gaining a wider perspective on things.

If i were to be comatose, i´d just waste away for 10 years. What´s the point in that.

What's the point in anything?

There is no uniform answer to that, we are subjective entities with varying and dynamic degrees of perception and interpretation of said perception, hence "point" being a completely human terminology, just like "meaning". You don´t apply point or meaning to empirical existance. Human existentialism applies to humans. You have to seperate these things.

Jail. I've seen those videos/documentaries where someone comes out of a coma after more than a decade and they basically have to relearn everything. They also have to go through intense physical therapy just to be able to walk again and most have trouble talking once they wake up. At least in jail I can have a chance at solitary confinement.

Definitely jail, most people in jails for light offenses are just stupid or don't know any better punks or people who had to resort to desperate measures. Most of the people in for light offenses are only in prison because of their circumstances or lack of moral teachings. Although a ten year prison sentence would put you with drug dealers and assault offenders, good thieves and gang members. Not that good, but you find good people everywhere you look, even in prisons :) a coma though would be 10 wasted years of my life. Except if i get frozen or i don't age. Actually id rather go to jail even if i didn't age at all.

Being in a coma for 10 years messes you up, not just "I wonder what happened in the last 10 years" you guys presume is the only downside :lol:

Jail time. I am incredibly interested in what it would be like to live in jail and not believe all those preconceived notions about it.
