I'd say that simply not pigging on junk food all day every day would go a long way.
Don't eat like a pig and you won't become one. :whistle::coffee:

However, I've never understood what the point is if you die anyway.
As I learned recently, the point is to die later while still be able to have an interesting and independent life.

Eating healthily and exercising isn't just "not being fat". It's also having a body and mind that can handle stress, as well as functioning correctly when you hit your 60 and more. What is the interest to be alive if you can't do much of your life ?
And this can only be done by doing both. Not necessarily at a freak level, but enough to compensate, or at least slow down, the natural degeneration of your organism. There's no real interest in being in good health at 70 but not being able to actually move far because you lost most of your muscle tone, like there's no real interest to be in good shape and being able to run a marathon at 70 but having the brain of a 5 years old.

Therefore the point isn't that we will all die anyway, but how we want to live the last decades of our life.

Simply put, what matters is what is happening here and now. And I think for a man to live to 60 years old is already an achievement and a privilege.

It's what is important, but not the only thing that matters.

Why do people want to have a home if only now matters ? They are young, they don't need to have a place that is theirs. Why do they buy a fridge for that home ? They just have to buy what they eat when they want to eat it. Why do they own an oven, a microwave ? They can buy their meal already cooked.
Why do they search for a job ? Right now they have enough to live through the day...

You wouldn't be seated in front of a computer, writing here, if you really lived through the concept that only here and now matters, because you wouldn't have a computer, nor a place to seat. So, unless you're at a library or any place where you can borrow a computer, a place with a so lax security that it let you goes on an adult/porn games forum, that only here and now matters is nothing but an illusion you put in front of your own eyes.

Such peoples exist, but even them think, to some extend, about tomorrow and the next week. Even real nomads think about the future. Prepping the place they'll stay so they'll not get wet if it rain. Deciding to move to the South when winter is approaching, then back to the North when it's summer that approach.
They live for now, but know that tomorrow is as important. Not being obsessed by the future doesn't mean that they totally discard it.


And I think for a man to live to 60 years old is already an achievement and a privilege.
. And like it's an average, not only between men and women, but also between healthily and none healthily, and like it also take count of accidental death, in most of the world nowadays one can easily expect to live up to 80 years and more, at least if he take care of himself.

The reason to take care of yourself is so that while you live you are as comfortable as possible. You don't need to be jacked but just keeping you weight down saves you so many headaches in the future. I am fine with just the occasional walk and eating right.

when you get a little older and your body can't take any of the shit it breezes over now, you find out living healthy is actually a pretty cool upgrade from that. I mean just the hangovers go from 1 uneasy day to 6 nights of psychotic breaks, and it's like the least fucked up thing you're gonna be living through.

No, faked desperation. A form of second degree humor...


Perhaps your verbal jousting with the Brit;
has changed you, ah well...
Seriously ? No, really, you were serious when writing this ? :unsure:

To think that some believe that you are him... Oh god...
Him, who always depicted me as angrily chasing boys out of my yard, being suddenly surprised because I would have been sarcastic... What am I saying, not just him, anyone who know me a bit also know that my real native language isn't French, but sarcasm, dialect self-mockery.

You should read the said verbal jousting to the light of this knowledge, that he had, else those jousting wouldn't have existed. Who know, perhaps would you learn a bit of the philosophy you pretend to dispense through your posts.

It's very sweet that you still remember your former sexual partner. It shows how deep your relationship was. I'm sorry for your loss once again ❤

Be sorry for him instead. I can survive, but him is facing rough times.
Think about it, for someone like him to have lost the pleasure to be funny, it need more than some clouds over his head...
