I feel I could literally die from the shock and then have to live in a nightmare of constantly checking myself for injuries if I survived. Pain sucks but it's a useful survival tool and would rather deal with it throughout life.

Pain or no pain?

Hmm…. That’s a tough one, but I’m going to go with no pain.

If I still get the response of pain down the line (not being able to rest my hand on a hot stove) I’d consider it. To quote Matt Damon in Elysium, “This ain’t gonna kill me.”

On the other hand, sometimes I like to feel a bit of pain given the right, uh, circumstances.
