ofc I pick when.

I'll just find out when I die then commit suicide before I die just to give the middle finger to fate.

.... wait hold on, I don't think that how it works...

Joke aside, I'll pick neither. Already have enough thing going on in my life that I really don't need the fear of knowing added in there too

 
If I knew how I would die and it was something like falling off the stairs or a car crash, I'd be paranoid and cautious every time I went down the stairs or drove a car, that part of my life would just be ruined. If I knew when I'd die, than it might change the experience I have throughout my life, I mean shit, that's the same as being a cancer patient, somebody telling you how much time you have left and basically shattering your world.

All in all, I'd seriously rather not know, it means there is still adventure and experiences to be had.

You can't avoid it. If you're going to die of something than you're going to die from it. In the context of the conversation, you cannot avoid the way you've been prescribed death, it's just going to happen and you'll know about it, but couldn't change it. If you wanted to know when you died you couldn't just not die at that date, and in the context of the question you couldn't suicide before that date because you'd just fail and still die at the day you were told you'd die. The question is simply if you'd want to KNOW, not that you could change it, and the fate being given is unchangeable.

Well since i know that death is unavoidable and everyone is going die one day, why care about it?

I would rather enjoy the journey to death, i.e life.  ;)

 
I believe that by knowing when or how to die I would be paranoid about it so in this scenario ignorance is the best option and that's why I picked neither. 

 
wouldn't me knowing alter my actions and the timeline itself?

Rhetoric Question of course it would I reckon knowing so would be pointless

 
I prefer to live in the now.  To know when or how I would die would take that away from me.  Afraid to do the thing that leads to my death (hiking on a cliff, using a knife, walking the street, driving a car, etc...) or, dreading the date that comes.
