you know your airline is a sad airline when the wikipedia page for one of your planes crashing is bigger than the airline's wikipedia page itself

Well, the poor and the drug free.

I never understand why people say they wouldn't want to live forever. I don't know about forever, but I'd at least like a say in the matter. A few hundred years, at least.

Slightly over a century for me, tops. Assuming I could stay young as part of this voodoo ritual.

I'd get bored after a while; want the eternal snooze. I'm barely 24 and already suffer from the occasional bout of existential ennui.

Yeah. Living forever seems like it would get, well, old.

Eh, if you lived long enough existential crises wouldn't be problems, because you'd still have enough time left to do things when you stopped asking why you were doing things.

Same. I want to live long enough for us to get cloning down. Then I'd get a clone of myself at 20 with no brain and have my brain implanted into the young body.

Oh, I know it's a phobia. But I'm really too busy running like Usain Bolt to really give it much thought at the time. :p

I try to limit my number of existentialist experiences. They unsettle me. Especially when trying to contemplate non-existence.

Realistically, I'd be happy if I lived in to my late 80s. I look after myself pretty well, but gender isn't on my side, on this one.

We'd be much more advanced as a species if constantly threatened with bee stings for lack of progress.
