    64 and 11months. I will just be looking forward to retiring when i'll die and never get to experience never having to get up in the morning for work again.

    edit:according to the death clock im going to die on Wed Oct 3 2040. So i'll be 61..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,783 ✭✭✭Hank_Jones


    Honestly I'd say probably around 65, maybe younger, considering the health history in my family.

    Plus I smoked for 10 years, that can't have helped.

    29 at the latest, it's in my tea leaves.

    Of course if I cut the whisky out of the tea it'd be far laterz.

    28 days... 6 hours... 42 minutes... 12 seconds. That... is when the world... will end.

    In my 80's ... a stair lift related death. It'll be in the news.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    Hopefully before others have to feed/wash/change me...

    At least 100. Medical science is advancing rapidly. Only a few years and we'll be growing new organs from our own cells.

    And they've identified many of the causes of aging. Only a matter of time before they overcome these causes.

    Well I have just bought my first motercycle this week actually. :)

    Sooo..
    OT..



    I Wazdakka being of (Somewhat) sound mind and body,
    Hereby leave all of my worthy possessions to After Hours.
    My vast fortune consisting of fifteen used foreign stamps, A potato of quite an amusing shape, a laptop with a broken screen, and no doubt a half crumpled Honda XL600 chassis.
    My initial thought was to have these distributed evenly among the current posters of AH upon my death.
    However in spirit of boards.ie and the epenisis that gave grown because of it, I have decided that my fortune shall be distributed according to the number of posts a Boardsie has in AH.
    Congratulations guys... They finally count for something.

    Yours sincerely,

    Waz.

    I tried that Death Clock thingey. I smoke, & it gave me 40 years to live, so I changed it to non-smoker & it cut it to 35.

    So either it's b*llox, or smoking is good for my health.

    (sparks up another)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,494 ✭✭✭Columbia


    I've kept myself in good shape since my early teens, so I'm thinking somewhere around 81 to 84 without the aid of medical science. However I think that by the time I get to that age, people living to 100 and beyond would be fairly commonplace.

    Any other 20-somethings annoyed that medical advances look like they'll come along in our 40s, just after we're past our best? :p

    Come to think of it, they recently discovered that enzyme which apparently slows down aging. Unfortunately, the way it works also leads to a greater chance of cell mutation, which can cause cancer.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 375 ✭✭unknownlegend


    Dont really care about the age because i'm not going to die of natural causes, i'm going out in a hail of explosions and/or poignant war music.

    Hmm, a normal smoker lives 19 years longer than a pessimistic non-smoker.

    Saturday, October 28, 2079.

    I'm 20 now so that would make me 90 years old. Nice one!

    Right I'm drunk - I am now 36 and my projected year of death is Dec 2073 - can somebody work that out for me. Seems like a long time away.

    2073 is 63 years away. 63+ 36 =99? Is that right?

    40 is coming way to fast.

    How is this possible??

    I was a teenager for the first few years of the 90's :(

    Can you believe being 36? I kind of think I'm lying when I say I am..Yeah I went to 'Feile' Trip to Tipp in 91 or 92. Somebody posted pictures of us down there on facebook today - we look about 7 its mental.

    I'm not thinking about 40 yet. Have to find a man, get married and have kids pretty quick:rolleyes:

    Yeah remember the happy mondays played? They were great. AFAIK Van Morrisson & The Pogues played too. I think I brought £20 for each day but spent it on the train on the way up. Was great though - had just finished my leaving and I remember thinking I was free for the first time! We thought we were hippies - pretty embarrassing now. Can't believe we thought we were original - what a laugh!

    1991? Some of Boards' most established members were born that year... :(

    Often I feel as if I'm engaging on Boards with someone who's the same age as/close in age to me... then I discover I'm 10-15 years older than them - d'oh! In fairness, I'm a ridiculously childish 31-year-old. :pac:

    I remember Feile '91 so well - really wanted to go, but too young.

    I have a pact with the devil coming up soon, so I'll probably live forever.

    I'll be around when the recession is over and all that, yay me.

    And yay the dark lord.

    According to the death clock i will die aged 85, not bad for an optimistic smoker


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,739 ✭✭✭✭minidazzler


    Before I am 50 anyway! Probably when I am around 45. I just can't see myself getting old! If I am not dead by 60 I will be disappointed!
