So I was right to remain in denial about Duke Nukem Forever after all. Yup, all settled, it's never coming out!

Considering most people die by the time they reach 70 or 80 everybody's end is actually near. In case you haven't realized, people don't live that long.

Let me see by the time you reach 20 you haven't even begun to realize what life is about or have any clue of what it is about
By the time you reach 30, you are too preoccupied with career and family that you forgot to live.
By the time you reach 40, you're beginning to realize what life is supposed to be and not entirely lost but still too little time to take time with your life
By the time you reach 50, you begin to think about pension, either apathetic to life or numb, and start to really appreciate what time you have.
By the time you reach 60, life begins to open up its possibility thanks to a lot of free time but then you realize you're too old to do the things you want or wish.
By the time you reach 70, you begin to forget what life is all about and live only to pass the time.
By the time you reach 80, you forget even yourself due to disease.

So people live their life from their 50s to 60s. That's about 20 years. At other times we are either too dumb to appreciate life that we take for granted or too preoccupied to make a living. Frankly, many people are not the master of their own life, that is to do what you WANT to do. So my hat is off to those people who decided from their young life to chase after their dream so they won't waste their life chasing after the society's or someone else's dream.

We are doomed if we cannot stop making the same stupid mistakes over and over again. The inability or the refusal to learn from the failure of every single prophecy of doomsday throughout history makes the story go beyond laughter-inducing, to downright depressing.

Like castout said everyone has a doomsday/judgment day at some point and in this vast grand scheme universe sooner or later the entire thing will be gone at least as how we know it so why bother worrying about things that you cant control and are 100% going to happen anyway?

Might as well enjoy life while you have it you never know when you are going to die.

Though I dont agree with castouts you only live form 50 to 60 to me you live your entire life span and learn as you go.

So far their track record for being right isn't exactly stellar.

Haha funny picture. Rapture is not biblical. Talk to any biblical scholar(I mean scholar, doesn't have to be a believer). But it seems too many people believe in Rapture.

But that's another topic. As for getting into shape yeah do it. One life, one body one mind in just one lifetime! Better make full use of what we have been given imo. Get in shape, whether to feel good or to charm the ladies.
