To help you understand the question, an adequate rephrase would be: Which would be worse, dying of boredom or dying of curiosity? (This is actually the inverse, or the opposite, of my question, but should help you to understand what I am asking).
This is not a trick question, and it might just be meant to make you think. Please try to explain your answer.

My brain would never allow me to die of boredom. I do not recall the last time I was bored. Failing all else I ponder the serious questions of like such as "which would it be better to die from ..... ?"
I would be far more likely to die of curiosity, I am always striving to learn something new.

In my estimation, a curious individual could never die of boredom under normal circumstances. The truly curious can find interest and even art in almost any situation. Given an unusually prolonged boring environment (like driving the 1-5 north from Southern California to Northern California) or the pan handle through Texas...on a twilight zone time frame could kill me. I would much rather die of curiosity any time.

Curiosity...
For example... I would rather die by being curious of bungee jumping and actually doing it than dying from boredom by sitting around staring off into space.

It would be worse to die of boredom cuz at least if I'm being curious I'm doing something thinking that I might learn something in the process, but dying of boredom would be horrible cuz being bored gives me headaches so I would just feel totally horrible and die a terrible death!! lol I like this question, I was bored so I decided to answer it! :P

Damn...
Um...I guess boredom. Curiosity could get you killed over something stupid. And you could get blown up or chopped up or eaten alive out of curiosity. Boredom is just pretty much bordom. The downside to boredom is that it's probably a painstakenly slow death.

I'd rather die of boredom..because then in my afterlife (and yes i believe in the afterlife) id regret all the things i didnt experience and id wonder about everything that i was curious about but never took a chance to explore..plus i'm always bored..so its an easy choice..good question btw

Curiosity by far. Love to learn and discover. Curiosity breeds innovative boredom breeds serial killers.
