Cool Bug Fact #47

Reply in thread

I'm an infantry combat veteran and my experiences with death lean more towards the violent. My only real goal is to live long enough to die naturally as the other ways all seem rather unpleasant, but if assuming I don't make it to a ripe old age, then I just hope it's quick.

Love this

I've been to the Grand Canyon three times, even hiked it once. While it is a sight to behold, it never once made me start believing in a deity.

Seek relief

So yall are just talking about baby meds for minor headaches. I'm up on that prescription grade headache medication for my debilitating migraines, and I can not take it more than a few times a month without doing irreparable damage to my kidneys and liver. Sometimes, dealing with headache pain is the healthier option.

He had a very treatable cancer that was found in the early stages and was given an excellent prognosis, but in his infinite megalomaniac manner he decided he knew better than the doctors and opted to treat his cancer at home with homeopathic remedies. His home made new age "cures" clearly didn't work and by the time he finally decided to get proper treatment his cancer had metastasized and he was beyond help... sounds to me like he played a large hand in his own demise so the joke plays.

Anyone relate?

I was told as a child that I didn't have ADHD because I was able to sit quietly and read for long periods of time. I was only able to read for long periods if it was a fantasy novel. Now, in my 40s, my doctor was amazed I'd never been diagnosed as, according to them, I'm "textbook."
