Well, the doctor can't find my pulse, and I don't usually think before I post, so therefore I must not be.

The Good News - Yes I'm alive, however I am in cryogenic sleep on a long dead planet.
The Bad News - You are not alive, you are all figments of my imagination.
The Really Bad News - My power supply is failing.

International observers found that one of the candidates in this poll has been cheating useing dead people and figments of imaginations to try and tip the vote in their favour. The whole poll may have to be redone because of this.

Try the back of your wrist. 1 person in every few hundred thousand has their veins and arteries along the back of their wrist or so I was told.

As for me, I can't stand sunlight, so I must be at least half-dead. *pats coffin/bed*

*tries ot find pulse* *fails* Weird, I've NEVER(in the 10 or so out of 15 years that I remember) been able to really find my pulse and keep feeling it for more than 10 seconds...does that make me undead? But I think, therefore I am(alive)...

No, fellow Nationstateser, it seems you have misinterpreted your own query ;) (not that, thatis possible, or anything)
We're not dead, we are just "not alive".

I follow Chansu's theory. We must be undead (... or something ... I have no imagination okay)

Ever hear of Coutard's syndrome? The victim is convinced that although he can walk and talk he is dead. They often imagine that they can smell themselves decaying and can feel maggots crawling under their skin. Weird.
