If There Was A Way To Know At What Age You Would Die...
 
Would you want to know? It would just be a number, not when you'd die, and nothing more than the year you would die (no months, weeks, days, etc).

Personally - hell no. If it was 41, then the day I turn 41, I'll constantly be on high alert.

But, there are some people who might, as a way of "planning" their life out.

I would want to know so I could prepare.

If you had ten years left, would you spend more time watching movies than you do now?

He beat mark f in the number of films watched in a year! [SEE HOW]

I mean, I'd love to know who the killer is. Then, I'd assassinate @Swan before he gets a chance to kill me.

I don't think I would want to know, but if I did know, I'd like to think that I would spend my last ten years doing something better than just watching movies.

You'd think you'd make wiser decisions if you did know

God knows if I only had a few left I'd spend no time posting here with you losers

Yes, absolutely. Seen too many lives interrupted too early, full of gotta-do-this-next-year-maybe.

Also, I really don't hold Krull in high esteem, but the background story for the cyclops is marvelously haunting.

I’m second that hard no.

I can’t remember where I read it but a thought experiment involving a man who finds his life written in a book. Long story short: the man causes his death because he thinks he’s trying to avert his death.

No. And that’s all I’m gonna say on this subject.
