Thoraiya DyerDo you want to live beyond 100?

I can't answer this question for now. I'm busy watching TV. I don't care if you think it's taking me too long to watch the TV. It really doesn't matter whether the show gets a rerun, but I may watch it again, too. Nope, don't tell me to stop eating burgers -- it's no longer bad for my health. Hello, this is genetically beefed-up beef sandwich! This is crunchier, healthier, and it doesn't cause pimples.
Don't tell me to hurry up and catch the subway schedule. You know it's always gonna come around again. I got...let's see...76 more years to waste my life in the future, to be late in the office, get sacked for tardiness, and get another job again anyway. Why run around like you've only got 40 more years left to live? We both got more than enough. I can use up all that extra 36 years to do everything that I want -- science will make it possible for me to become a run-of-the-mill centenarian.
I'll bet the scientists will be able to take care of the p21 and the telomeres and all the DNA problems to keep us healthy until ten centuries later. How do you think would we look like by then?

Nice to see there are other demented minds out there.
I thought Subway was the place you ate at when you couldn't afford to fly.
I'd love to write more but I'm busy:
Watching daytime soaps ... and plastering my penis with a selection of cosmetics I bought from a department store (the ones advertised in glossy magazines). I'm determined to have a pretty penis. A glossy one. As pretty as a catwalk model's vulva. What colour lipstick would you suggest? Labia Pink? If I give him any more exercise he'll turn anorexic. He's already had a couple of bulimic vomits into the toilet bowl.
Writing to Oprah to tell those other hundred people their opinion sucks (and how mine doesn't) ...
Watching the News and Current Affairs programs, and writing to the producers to tell them how I hate how much negatitivity their segments are full of ...
If my penis doesn't drop off, I'll live till I'm a hundred ... easily ... the positive vibes of the media will ensure that ...
