Your own personal Hell
 

Let's assume that Hell isn't literally a fiery pit of damnation, but rather an experience individually tailored to be the perfect torment for each of its denizens. Perhaps the punishments are designed to reflect the recipient's sins (a la Dante), or maybe they're designed to inflict the maximum amount of suffering. What would your Hell be? What about for other members here?

I would consider that assumption far more likely than a mythical lake of fire anyway. For me I think a state of perpetual drowning would be just about the worst thing that could happen.

The idea of having every inch of my body covered in papercuts terrifies me.

For me it would probably be being surrounded by people I loved, and they all hated me forever. That, or being lost in space. Something about that idea terrifies me more than I could ever explain.

For me it would be being alone for ever. I don't mean like single or anything, I mean I'm the only life in the universe.

My Hell would be as follows:

- A dark, claustrophobic place where no light can enter
- They serve nothing but Tahini for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
- The only movies playing are Michael Bay movies, most of which are Michael Bay remakes of all my favorite films, including films I've made.
- It's very cold all the time.
- I'm all alone.

There. If you'll excuse me, I'm going to go cry in a corner now. I nominate this for most depressing thread ever award.

My personal hell would be a room with a gigantic HDTV, theater system setup, etc.

And the only thing plugged into said TV? A Nintendo Wii.

where are the GAMES

I get this feeling sometimes like my chest is hollow. It's the most drained, exhausted, depressed feeling ever. I imagine feeling like that, dwelling in that experience forever would be pretty bad. That there is soul death. None of this pain bullshit.

As a modern-day alchemist I get to spend eternity with my head stuck in the ground. =\/

I always figured Hell for me would fit one of those Hellraiser punishments.

Eternal pain with no release, always looking and never touching, etc.

Going back to school.

Being locked in a room having forced sex with Goerge bush and being fucked in the ass by robert pongi.

Why is it that everyone basically just says what they hate or are afraid of?

Personally I’d not want to go to a place that God himself prepared as punishment for the Devil, his angels, and those who turn away from God.

It's because this thread is about personal Hells, idgit. There's no point in describing a personal Hell if it isn't unpleasant for you.

That's why I bought dat PSTriple.

I guess for me it would be an ass full of red hot coals.

While being forced to listen to country music. And watch golf, or fishing, or hunting on tv. And help stupid people with computer problems. Oh wait.

Hell for me would be my everyday life... everyday.

The feeling you get at a proclamation, hearing you didn't pass. With a heart pounding of disappointment. But feeling this shock in a continuous way, not momentarily.

(I've never actually felt this, because I always passed, how does it feel, I don't really know? But it has to be like hell.)

:emo:

I'd probably be stuck in a perpetual traffic jam, in my old Saturn stuck with revving 1st gear to move, with nothing but jackasses from Massachusetts on the road. No joke. I never get MORE FRUSTRATED than I do in traffic. Road rage so bad.

Let's add in 110 degree heat and humidity and nothing but Rush Limbaugh on the radio with no other options. We'll be set. My living hell.

Sass, Cheryl is in the car with you, you can't touch her, but you can sure hear her.

I guess my own personal hell would be defined as a place in which I couldn't make a positive difference into anybody's lives. Being without my fiance. Reliving every horrible experience I ever had to go through and letting the shallowness and selfish of everyday society consume my very soul. Constantly listening to country music while all this was going would definetely be the nail in my coffin of my own personal hell.

I'm with a few other people on this... being alone somewhere. Totally by myself. I think the only thing that would be worse is constantly 'living' with unrequited love.

Hm. This thread is really depressing.

Does anyone remember in Greek mythology about Prometheus' punishment for breathing life into man, for bring fire to mortals and teaching them civilization? You know... Where he is chained to a mountain top (fuck if I remember the name of it) where he is forever doomed to have his liver eaten by vultures?

I read about that when I was in 7th grade and to this day, that's still something that strikes me as a rather painful version of hell.

Yeah, that level in God of War was awesome, but tough.

As for my own persona hell: Every single awkward social gathering in my life, replayed over and over, couple that with every person I ever cared for insulting me in my face, laughing at me, while I'm spit on naked in a damp pit, surrounded by vicious zombie tigers who, at the end of everyday, rip me to shreds, only to have me reborn the next morning. Oh and country music plays over and over the whole time, the kind they play in Truckstops and on CMT.

That is hell.

I have to agree with this one.. I think that I would be my personal hell. Being surrounded by everyone I care for and having them just constantly tell me how much they hate me.. That send shivers down my spine.
