I'm going to die at 10:09. am or pm? What day?

Lurker 09.30.2009 09:05 AM

Oh that's what the 10.09 thing was. I hadn't noticed that that was the time on it. ...Anyway, I'm inclined to say pm... Greenwich Mean Time.

gmku 09.30.2009 09:06 AM

You hadn't noticed a simple detail like that, and I'm supposed to trust you with a reminder of my mortality. You just blew any credibility you had.

Lurker 09.30.2009 09:07 AM

Damn! I'm overworked, that's the reason.

Lurker 09.30.2009 09:08 AM

Would you like to be my assistant? I'll became much more efficient and reliable with your help. The pay is good too.

It feels dignified. It feels wise, experienced, and adventurous. Why do you ask? Do you hope to make it out of your 20s alive?

chicka 09.30.2009 10:29 AM

Well it's going to happen Swa(y), It's not a bad think. Like gmku says you definitely are wiser and able to handle life better. There's not a lot of highs but there's also not a lot of lows. You tend to enjoy things much more as you don't take every thing for granted. Watching your kids grow into adulthood way cool becoming a grandparent even cooler...worst part is you've lost a good deal of friends...

gmku 09.30.2009 10:43 AM

I think I mostly still live and enjoy life as much as I did in my 20s or any other time. Not much has really changed in that regard. I think you do get a wider perspective on things, though, and become calmer. One important thing is to stay healthy--don't do the obviously unhealthy things when you're young that will make your old age difficult, like smoke, overeat, over-drink. Take care of yourself, get excercise, stay balanced, and there's no reason age should stand in the way of enjoyment.

I don't like indie bands to qualify a hipster. I prefer electro, and pop.

If anyone was wondering why I have Ness as my avatar, it's to remind you all of the psychedelic existentialism of ALL things you may or not encounter in your future, past or present life and the fact that all those things are connected by the slightly little fact that we are all part of the grand biosphere.

"psychedelic existentialism "

should be a band name.

in the subway, there was an old woman, who was wearing a blouse with a watch stopped at the exact time your avatar is.
i dont see or know any significance of this time, as opposed to maybe around 4 o clock in the morning time.
maybe it cuts better on the torso. make you look thiner.:(



That is bizarre! What does it mean?! I don't think I've ever even seen someone with a clock on their top.

I lost a screw to my pocketwatch while I was removing the dead battery.

Kind of fated to happen, though.
