Human life is a sexually transmitted disease with a 100% mortality rate.

I think the argument is that the healthier you are, the less likely you are to suffer health problems for decades before shoving off the mortal coil.

If I hit 80, I’m tryin’ heroin.

So really, chugging soda will make you happy now, and and reduce you’re time of being miserable later. It’s a win win

drinking one to four sugary drinks per month was linked with a 1 percent increased risk; two to six per week with a 6 percent increase; one to two per day with a 14 percent increase; and two or more per day with a 21 percent increase.

Sure, it takes years off your life. But they’re the shitty years!! My great aunt lived to 92, which was about 20 years longer than it should have been. between the macular degeneration, osteoporosis and dementia, she ended up talkingto her dead relatives, complaining she couldn’t see them.

Fact: Soda takes years off your life.

Exactly this. Every day I get to see the effects of people driving in a state with traffic circle/rotaries/roundabouts, when they obviously have no idea how to handle those things.

In the province I am in, Ontario, once people hit 80 they have to take a driving test every 2 years, this includes a vision test.

I’d even be in favor of a middle ground...after a certain age (70?) you should be required to at least take a vision and reaction test every couple of years. These are things that physically deteriorate in people as they age, and there’s got to be a good scientific answer for when the majority of people will have…

It is crazy when you put it that way. I have to re-qualify regularly to operate a fork lift at work, so why not cars?

Panicked and slammed the gas. This is the story every time an elderly driver launches carmageddon. 

I met with a client a few weeks ago. He is in his 80s and has macular degeneration and said that from 10 feet away he could only see my basic shape and I had to read out loud the changes I made to a contract for him. He drove to my office for the meeting, but he said it was okay because he only drives on surface…

It doesn’t even need to be tied to age.

“The driver of the SUV was a 77-year-old man who thought the vehicle was in reverse, when he hit the accelerator and was in drive instead.”

Looks like one of those ads featuring twins where one of them smoked for years, and the other didn’t.  

Maybe I associate with too many actual criminals, but I wouldn’t fire her for this if she worked for me. People will do crazy shit for their kids.

At least we can tell them apart now.
