Just when you thought it was safe to blow your nose...

I guess I'll stop drinking coffee.

sigh . . . It is a well-known medical fact that being alive eventually results in death. Therefore at all costs avoid being born.

Heh! In that same context: 'Experience is the best teacher, but she kills all her students'.

It's also a well known fact that being dead prevents you from being alive. So if you want to prevent being alive...wait a minute....

But at least you can have salt! Here. Have a pretzel with mustard.

Just don't wash it down with coffee...sigh

That seems like an awful small sample to support such generalities.

You have to consider the possibility that if someone hadn't had a rupture due to one of the top five risky activities, they might then have been at risk when they did the other four, or something not even on the list. It's always wise to take news story statistics with a pinch of salt.

Yeah, for your health's sake. And a little red wine helps, too.

No caffeine or sex? Time to switch back to morphine and chocolate.

I am sure this was posted in fun. At least I hope so.

Frankly I am so tired of if you do or don't you will die threads.

Honestly from the moment we are born we begin to die. Death in inevitable.

Accept it we are all going to die.

I wish I had a dollar for every health warning that's come down the pike.

Dead?

Religions promising everlasting life are born from such things. Who was it again who said? "Hope springs eternal in the human breast"

Rationality has nothing to do with life; or death either for that matter.

 

[Quiet_Cool]

Don't have sex, drink coffee or blow your nose...

Because they might be bad for you...

Hmmm... Am I the only one who realizes that nothing is actually healthy for you. If you do those three things, at least you're taking hold of the possibilities.

It was, I assure you. These 'studies' have reached ridiculous levels when simple acts like sex and nose blowing are said to be potentially fatal. On a per capita basis in term of death risk, driving tops them all, even more than falls in the home, yet most of us drive every day. Fresh air and sunshine were once touted as necessary for good health, now according to 'studies', the sun's a killer and the air's polluted.

Moral: Have all the fun you can, whenever you can and as often as you can. What the hell, we're all gonna die anyway.
