Post something depressing
Edited on Thu Apr-14-05 09:33 PM by Goathead
How about this, there will be a time when every single person on the face of the planet right now will be dead. That moment is calculable to the moment the last person, out of all of us alive right now, is extinguished. Think about that, and somewhere out there is the very last person out of all those people. :smoke:

41. It was tax on the investments I liquidated to live.
My husband finally got a job this year, but I don't trust it to last long enough to put back what we spent.

9. 1000 years in the future...
... the only person from the 20th century that will be remembered will be Hitler. All the good works accomplished during our lifetime will be forgotten. Only our monsters will be remembered.

14. You are probably right.
Sadly. What does anybody remember of the 5th century? Nothing, but they damn sure remember Attila the Hun.

11. in about six billion years, the sun will expand
to a red giant and incinerate the inner solar system, including the earth.

All that's left to look forward to after that is the heat death of the universe :cry:

15. I learned last summer....
That I don't have as much self-control as I thought. I didn't walk away from a situation I should have, did something I really, really regret, and haven't been able to forgive myself for it. :(

22. That is my nightmare.
Seriously, whenever I stay in a hotel where there is a balcony, i find myself strangely drawn towards the edge. I am sometimes afraid that I will somehow lure myself to jump off, though I am by no means suicidal.

How do you cope with that? I guess you probably have to keep yourself very detached.

25. I'll be dead
But I'll have to suffer an excrutiatingly painful death because my right to death with dignity will be overrun with Republican fucktards trying to slam my feeding tube back into my shriveled orifices while draining my Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid funds as my children slave away at meaningless service jobs despite huge increases in their college tuition that I'll have to pay for in the meantime so for when I get to the cheap nusing home they'll have to pick out for me since they won't be able to take care of me or visit me because they'll each have three jobs to pay for their student loans and the thousands of dollars of permanent debt they inherited not from me but from the neocon death cult wars and systematic destruction of civilization and incessant tax breaks designed to benefit the most productive members of society loke the children of the extremely wealthy who will save trillions of dollars which will be paid by the birth tax of all my heirs.

33. How is that depressing?
Seriously. How can I be depressed about the day that will come when I will no longer be tied to this world and the never ending crush of morally vacuous and ethically challenged humans who proclaim themselves lovers of life and human dignity while at the same time cheering the bombing of Baghdad, looking the other way instead of seeing abject poverty, destroying themselves with and taking as many others as possible with them, and fiercely defending the practice ripping individuals from the womb?

44. Mrs. V.'s aunt Martha has cancer.
She had a melanoma and several lymph nodes removed last week, and they found it in the nodes; now they've found a spot on her lung that has spread. Please pray/hope for Aunt Martha and the family.

Edited on Fri Apr-15-05 08:23 AM by AussieDave
Britney Spears has started breeding

Charles and Camilla finally got what they wanted all along, over Diana's dead body

At least 59 million Americans are brain-dead

There are over 150 countries Bush hasn't invaded yet

But then I don't want to get TOO morbid.........
