Why do you call them idiots? Is it because you're a coward, or someone stupid enough to believe death is something that can be avoided?

- oblio 9y agoI don't know about you, but I've managed to avoid death by Everest for over 3 decades. And regarding the "coward" part, surely there must be some ways more productive to society by which they can demonstrate their bravery...
- Fricken 9y agoYou could live to be 100, but you're going to die, and be dead for the rest of eternity. What's the difference between 30 and 100 measured against eternity? Both numbers are infinitesimally small. Be afraid of that, cower before it. Go on the internet to call anyone who isn't an idiot. Hide behind an illusory concept of productivity.
- oblio 9y agoYes, there's nothing in between nihilism and Carpe Diem...
- plsthink 9y ago“Can’t avoid death, so might as well die a ridiculously stupid, horrific one at 35 instead of a calm, peaceful one at 80 surrounded by loved ones.”
