For starts, I think we should have an option of how we would like to be punished for eternity. The whole fire and brimstone thing is a bit cliche. The list could look something like this:
A. burn in a pit of fire for all eternity
B. be forced to listen to Celine Dion albums for all eternity
C. be mauled by cats for all eternity
Also, I think we should get holidays off. Do you have any other recommendations?

i sorta liked the donut feeding machine homer simpson got when he went to hell. but if i choose to be mauled by cats, can i request declawed ones? i'd suffer an eternity of cuteness.
edit: lindsey, are you one of the believer-haters the humorless monoheads are complaining about?

Dante had a pretty good list to 'choose from'. Of course you didn't order off a menu, it was based on your sin (I guess people only commit one sin). The hellfire-and-brimstone seems to be for blasphemers, heretics, etc. Seems that the "wrathful" will be pretty happy with their choice of punishment though:
"The punishment for the wrathful is to attack each other. Is it just me or is this a briar-patch sort of "punishment"? If you're really wrathful, you're probably going to dig on a chance to work out that anger by gouging others. It's like punishing gluttons with ice cream sandwiches."

You dont have to make any changes, hell is already a cool place to live:
1- You can have all the sex u want with all the people u want (it is a sin, isnt it?)
2- I can yell bad words to my mother in law without getting in jail, I can also torture her in there
3-I can meet cool people like Galieo or Newton, maybe we can plan for the apocalypse in there, i'm sure they will have good ideas
4- I will try to get a promotion to (1)demon or (2) one of satans specials angels
5-If I get a promotion, I will try to get back to earth and disturb a little bit the christians, just to scare them at night.

LoL. Pretty good, however I think the Lord of Flies has his own sense of humor. It may be something like "Remember when you posted on the computer that night in 2007?....well we're going to give you A, B and C' Oh, on number B you don't get to listen to it you get to eat it, have a nice day"

The worst I can think of right now is being forced to watch Jerry Springer for eternity.
*shudders*
Great question, I had quite a few giggles while reading some of the responses.

I already get mauled by my hateful demon possessed cat. The worst thing I can think of is to be forced to watch episodes of The View when Rosie was still on it.

to you think anyone could pull the "race" card in hell?
Oh, i think another bad punishment would be being trapped in a real life version of Yahoo Answers Religion and Spirituality Section

We should get Sundays off. Hehe.
Oh, how about taking care of someone else's bratty kids for an eternity. Man, that would suck!

Well I have to wonder. If the devil is responsible for sex, drugs, and rock and roll, isn't that what hell is going to be like?
Oh and to nerdxpunk, that is the most terrifying idea yet!!

How about roasting on the beach under the Hawaiian sun?
