\u00e2\u20ac\u0153The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A death! What\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re young enough to enjoy retirement. You drink alcohol, you party, and you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no reponsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last 9 months floating with luxuries like central heating, spa, room service on tap. then you finish of as an orgasm !!!Amen\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
