You are Joe Biden..................
When I see this kind of thing I think about hank’s character who outlives wives and children or the black guy who is so tired and ready to go.
To live that long you have to be compliant or adaptable. It becomes increasingly hard for me to watch things happen as the next generation has to make the same mistakes all who have gone before them make and call the process the “new normal”. That “new normal” is not mine anymore and things will never be the same again for me as I grow older.
Just one example, there was a time when the only flag to be flown was OUR US flag. If all special interest groups could not be favored none would. That made sense. Not now. “New Normal”
When told that someday we might live to be 200 years old, Mom said “Who wants to be a little old lady for 120 years?”
I hope not! I’m hoping to be able to afford to live to 75 max. No joke. Prices of everything going through the roof.
If I make it to 100 they can put me to sleep in the Soylent Green factory.
I wouldn’t want to live another 82 years. Look at the mess that the country is in now, and imagine it 82 years from now. No thank you.
Meet me behind the gym after school. And bring your posse!;-)
And your a dog faced pony soldier!..................
Winston was born in 1874 so that means he would be 146 years old today (with a birthday coming up on November 30).
And you ain't Black!
First one to make it to 150 will be Henry Kissinger, followed by George Soros.
Oh, please, spare me!
I guess they haven’t heard about the med beds yet. 😏
There’s always Linda Ronstadt!
There were skeptics who claimed she assumed her mother's identity. Big difference. She is still listed as the oldest and nothing has come out to prove otherwise.
People are living longer AND better.
I was shown a picture of my great grandmother Ruby. She is wearing the stereotypical little old lady black dress with white lace collar. She has white, curly hair. I would have put her age at in the 80’s. She was 54 when she died.
You can search on the internet and there are entire sites dedicated to showing pictures of from 50, 60 or 70 years ago and captioning it with the person’s age. People who look like they are in their 50’s are 30. Cigarette smoking had a lot to do with it, but in general we are healthier than we were not so long ago.
My Uncle George jogs, rides his bike and is very active. He is 94, but could pass for 70.
It is entirely possible that in the not so distant future we could live to 150 and a 130 year old could pass for 70.
Me too. Lol.
It’s about the quality of life not longevity. I have seen people drag on for years with assorted afflictions including Alzheimer’s. Their old age was a curse.
“It’s about the quality of life not longevity.”
EXACTLY! That is what I’ve drawn on relative to Covid, masks, vaccine, etc.
In the example of yours, it’s sort of “better dead than Alzheimer’s”, and that’s true. My thinking is “better dead than red”, with life controlled by China and Marxists in our government who are forcing inoculations, keeping databases of nonconformists, etc. “Better dead than no social interaction” with masks covering humans’ emotions, lockdowns, etc.
Live free or die.
Agree without reservation. It’d be nice to defenestrate a good deal of these smirking socialist people as we go though.
