    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.

    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.

    That's what happens when you eat mars bar too often


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 356 ✭✭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!
