According to this ever-so-scientific life calculator I will die at 40. Well hell, at least I'll still look good and have all ma teeth! :p


:rolleyes:

estranged4life 06-04-2007 05:22 PM

Oops...
 
it said 61 years old for me...darn.

danax6 06-04-2007 05:22 PM

55. Maybe I should start flossing my teeth (shut up, Michelle), get a dog and go to church if I want to live a little longer. :rolleyes:

mikeschmike 06-04-2007 05:28 PM

70? Damn it to hell, I don't want to be old.

Did you actually do the quiz? Because the link Ethan sent automatically says 40. This is the link to the actual quiz.

http://www.blogthings.com/whatagewillyoudiequiz/

I will die at 73, although I think some of the questions are b.s. Like "do you have a dog". It should be do you have a pet.

Oh..I thought it was a little ****ty that it took you right to a death age without even asking you anything :laugh: :laugh:

I'll go take it now....

Ugh. 70. I liked 40 better :lol:

70 isn't bad either though....not ancient and could still be in ok health :p

A cat ignores you and would just use your dead body as a place to nap. :D A dog keeps you going.

TheWILDheart 06-04-2007 05:57 PM

85 for me apparently...so I shall die in the year 2075...hmmm I'm gonna sue blogthings website if it's wrong...

GODDESS6 06-04-2007 06:18 PM

79...not bad, i was ****ting at 1st:] because it said 40 before i did the quiz & that would give me like 15 more months left:eek: ~

ryan8472 06-04-2007 06:25 PM

Alison 06-04-2007 08:31 PM

Not true at all! I distinctly remember reading a study of people living longer because they had cats. It's not about getting exercise, it's about slowing down to love. :nod: :D

That's why 55 is perfect. I'll have 30 more good years and then I get to peacefully sleep forever before I start to detoriate and become a nuisance to the people around me. :lol:

it's a'ight. that's why we love you. beneath that tough-guy exterior lies a laying by the fireplace on a faux bearskin rug holding a glass of Chablis kinda guy.

are you single? :lol:

DavidMn 06-05-2007 10:56 AM

64 here. So that gives me another 28 years. I bet get busy getting all I need to get done!:lol:

Sarah 06-05-2007 11:16 AM

I wish you did too.

Save the snark for somebody else. It's not a goal. It's a committment.

I know you have me on ignore, but you really can't expect to make a comment like that and not have someone comment on it. that's a very serious thing to say. I hope that you do not really believe that or want to do that. I'm sorry you feel that you have to say something like that.

Uhm, it was a joke? I assumed yours was too, I didn't realize you were being serious. Guess I assumed wrong. :eek:

:rolleyes: Oh please. That's like the least scary thing I've ever said in my life.

Chill pills all around. Everybody take one. Me too. Sorry danax. I thought you were just trying to be a bitch. My mistake.

skcin 06-05-2007 03:33 PM

^ We have some board members here who have personal experience with suicide. Just so you're aware.

I'm living to the ripe old age of 82, btw.

Welll...I'd prefer to die around 45-50. I can't say that? Is it the wording? I certainly wouldn't blow my brains out, or say I would, cause that is way gross.
But some people don't want to live very long. Not for a bad reason, at least not myself. Because some people have had experience with suicide, does that mean I can't express myself? I mean, I usually don't anyway, because people get all worried, like I'm unhappy and depressed and stuff, but that isn't why at all.
Not a big deal, just FFT.

Oh, and my thing said 65. Undoubtedly I'll kick the day after I retire. *rolls eyes*.

What is your reason for wanting to die around 45-50?

Meh. "I'm bored" :laugh: We'll see how the ol' bod holds up, but I don't want to be ugly (er) or extensively physically diminished. Of course I'm sure I'll change my mind if I have a child.
I'm not sure what I'll still need to do at that point, either. Besides work. And who wants to stay alive just to work more? :p
I just don't think I'll have much of the things that make me happy now, at that age.
Other thing that would make me change my mind: Winning Lotto, getting a huge bunch of money somehow.
Also: My friend Rain plans to retire in 14 years, sell the house, live off her investments and retirement and SS and all of whatnot. So she can travel. She doesn't want to really live anywhere, just travel. That might be fun to do.

priestofnothing 06-05-2007 06:19 PM

Mine said 73, which I think is just about right. I hope so anyway. I watched both of my parents deteriorate and it is not pretty. I always want to be pretty (or at least not incontinent). LOL!

Hmm. I find this really interesting. Kind of refreshingly honest mixed with really bizarre. :laugh:

My guess is as you approach 45-50, you will change the age you'd like to die to 60-65. I don't think it is human nature to want to die. Even suicidal people don't want to die; they want to end their pain. Big difference.

I have the same fears of growing old as everyone else, but I figure cross that bridge when I get to it.

sasja 06-05-2007 06:48 PM

growing old is such a gradual process it's not so shocking at all I am experiencing.

One reason I'd like to live beyond 65 is to see my sons into adulthood. I would hate for them to have to deal with the loss of a parent before then :(

On a happier note!! Hahahaaahaaa Ryan, I love your cats sentiment, and agree totally!

I did not do the quiz. I am an old rebel :woohoo:

well, I mean, I don't want to get old. no one does and I certainly don't want to have horrible wrinkles and not be able to do anything for myself or be "that old guy" - I was just taken aback by her wording that she was going to blow her brains out. I just thought it was necessary to express concern over someone seemingly serious about that. and I probably wouldn't have said anything if she hadn't "corrected" Vanessa that she was serious. you can say whatever you want or express yourself however you want, but I have the right to then express concern. I was being as sincere and caring as possible, or at least I'm trying to change...wait...I mean...or at least I tried to be.

estranged4life 06-05-2007 07:17 PM

^^^
I dont mind getting old, I still look good for a 37 year old (Had some ladies at the Stevie/Eye-sack show ask if I was in my late 20's/early 30's). I have a young at heart mind...Which helps to center me sometimes...

BUT, I deal with the thoughts of suicide all the time, sad to say (Mainly because the death of my Mom dealt me a major blow)...I will never do it since it would hurt those close to me, especially my 'friend' nickay (bka Christy). I made a promise to her to stick around and I intend to be here for awhile...Have a bigger 'prize' ahead in my life motivating me to be alive.

I know you have the right. I kind of wasn't really talking to you. Just using your post. That was pretty gross saying "blow your brains out". It's nice that you were concerned. Etc. Blah. Eww, brains are gross.
