Just don't get old bro. They say only kids put ketchup on their hot dogs, so just keep doing that and you'll be okay and never grow old

breaking news I'm a gay faggot

You sound like a fucking autistic limpwristed faggot. The whole reason people choose to be happy is because it beats out spending the time you have on Earth being a miserable prick like you have apparently chosen to be.

Well OP, desu what he said is less retarded than what you said, even if it was a pretty brodude response. No. Happiness isn't impossible. That you would try arguing against that shows how mind numbingly stupid you are, no matter how smart you try to phrase your opinion.

>knowledge of inevitable death undermines any lasting effect of any human activity and kills the motivation

The key is in one word you typed:

>inevitable

It is completely out of your control, so you have to remove it from consideration when making plans, and evaluating how things are going.

Don't fixate on things over which you have no control.

He's right though. There's no strict relation between knowing that you're going to die and being able to be happy. Death is just another universal truth, like gravity. Why would death stop you from being happy? Does gravity prevent you from being happy?

Faggot

But to answer your question, he's right. See, you've gotta look at it this way. The fact that nothing is permanent in this world isn't an excuse to give up and lose motiviation. It should be the complete opposite. I'm that more motivated because I acknowledge that this is the one and only life I'm ever going to get. You've gotta live life to the fullest, OP. Live like LARRY.

Why the fuck would inevitable nature of death suddenly make it okay?
And if it magically does, who draws the line anyway?
Say, I inform you that you have 5 days left to live - does it make you miserable? I bet it does.
What if the number is a 100 days - still miserable? Most probably are.
So where's that line where "fuck i'm too young to die" becomes "who cares its inevitable lol"?

The good thing about death being inevitable is that it kills whiney faggots like you.

Good post. Edgy nihilists usually have very low EQ.

There are things in life to enjoy before you die.

You can enjoy playing video games or watching anime knowing that eventually you'll have to go to work the next day. Why can't you enjoy life knowing that you'll have to die one day?
