For balance, I think you should place your diabetes meds in the same pic.

    I never stopped with any indulgences.   It's time again to publish my favorite quote from Jack Nightingale in Stephen Leather’s novel Nightmare: Nightingale blew smoke up at the sky.

  • I wore a nappy as a kiddie......methinks I might need again....

  • I always said when I get older, I would start taking the drugs I tested and used in very limited times as younger, but the older I get, the more I appreciate life as it is, and even drink less, at lea

Run with it, man.

Maybe LSD. 

If I was given X years to live, I'd probably have quality cigars.

My father started to eat a hamburger almost every day at McDonald's in his late 80s.  He threw away the bun, never ate fries or soda...

 

Yet less than 10 years later he was dead.

 

Ultraprocessed food like hamburger is the worst thing you can eat.

 

Had he stuck with vegetables and fruits he would probably still be alive today. ????

He started in his late 80s, so maybe he was 87 years old.

And 10 years later he was dead, maybe 97 years old.

And you blame the meat in the burger for the fact that he died almost 100 years old.

Really?

No, scientific studies blame ultraprocessed food, not me personally.

 

I am just quoting scientists. ????

I have to admit, for most of my life I was pretty picky on my diet avoiding fats, sugar etc.

 

But it was about when I turned 60 I unconsciously started started eating a lot of the things I'd denied myself.

 

As I think about it now, how much can it actually shorten my life if I do eat that after dinner dessert

It's time again to publish my favorite quote from Jack Nightingale in Stephen Leather’s novel Nightmare:


Nightingale blew smoke up at the sky. ‘Everybody dies,’ he said. ‘Life is a zero sum game. The best you can do is to enjoy yourself as you go along.’
‘But smoking shortens your life.’
‘Maybe. But it only takes the years from the end of your life. Not the beginning or the middle.’
Jenny looked at him, confused. ‘I have absolutely no idea what you mean.’
Nightingale took another drag on his cigarette before continuing. ‘Say I live until I’m seventy-five without smoking. And say I die at seventy if I do smoke. I lose five years. But really, Jenny, what am I going to be doing during those five years? Sitting in a bedsit somewhere watching the football, assuming I’ve enough of a pension to be able to afford Sky Sport?

 

That’s a young man’s story.  Smoking doesn’t kill you, it ages you quicker, like bacon.  You still have five years of dismal decreptitude, but years earlier than you might have, and without the benefit of senility to help you forget the misery.

Really? 

Clamping that eating McDonalds every day will help you live to 97 doesn’t hold a lot of credibility if you don’t start till 87.

Ten years’ life after 87 is pretty good going, but not enough to make me start eating McDonalds.  I’m more interested to know what beer he drank, what brand of cigarettes, his preferred sexual position, and whether he wore a helmet while cycling

one summer job before university was at a bank and the vice president was a friend of the family. He liked when I would come chat w/him during the day. He had a model of a Winnebago on his desk and he planned to retire and travel the USA.. The year he was scheduled to retire he died of a heart attack... 

it’s great to die with your dreams intact

When I was 30, I said "fun friends" nine years younger than me was WRONG!!!! Bad boy, bad boy!!!!  

 

Now 30 years younger (yes there are older than 21 you sickos!!!!!!!!!!!!) is fine like deserts every now and then.

 

Took me 100000 years to learn how bad sugar was, and I was always in-shape.  Took another 10000 years to learn that avoiding fried food and lots of carbs is easier than I thought.

 

but Pattaya calls my friend!!!!!   I must sleep before my 10 pm to 5 am indulgences begin!!!!!!

McDonald's beef patties is the only part of the meal that isn't bad for you.

 

Bun / fries / soda = junk

 

Although beef patties is not a complete diet, at least he avoided the junk. 

 

So he was fairly clever your dad. 

He probably wasn't fat with that diet for sure.

Every guy that likes them big, like that, should think about what they will look like in 10 years time.

I preferred them small, Thai size, which have a chance of remaining perky indefinitely.

You will. trust me, you will.

 

I started wearing Pampers at 78 in hospital (and again at 79).

 

They may look foolish and they are not 100% waterproof, but they are better than the alternative,
