[Pelion]

its kind of crazy how we are more merciful to animals than we are to humans.

With humans its only really merciful if they want it. With animals they cant ask for it so we assume.

well if someones a vegetable that cant talk, how are you supposed to know what they want? unless they specifically stated when they were functional. the point is, euthanasia should be legalized.

[nutsinho]

[pankfish]

DON"T CLICK!

[kevster]

Poor bastard. Made the elephant man look normal.

I agree, don't click.

[Ragnar4]

I grew up with a birthmark that covers about 25 percent of my body, left face, arm etc. I used to hate how "ugly" I was, and how terribly people treated me.

I wish I had seen photos of this guy 15 years ago. Maybe would have put my "terrible life" into prespective.

[ChrisBCritter]

like i dont even get why this was posted. is anyone glad that they saw this and are now aware that this person exists?

Yes. Puts a lot of things about life in perspective, don't you think?

omfg political discussion omfg

first, its not much of a discussion. second, its not political, its more moral and religious. third, why do you care?

[DrivingDog]

After the puppy throwing video, i started reading the threads before clicking the link. I also ignore any thread started by Spoonitnow. My life has improved noticeably.

I'll take your guys' word for it about the guy in the video. It's disturbing.

I agree euthanasia should be legalized. Like someone really wants to live in constant pain with no hope of getting better, duh.

[Monty3038]

Umm... well there goes my lunch break.

[Jack Sawyer]

DON"T CLICK!

Tnx.


You just saved me.

You have my gratitude.

[bikes]

OMG WHY I CLICK X.X

[ChrisBCritter]

Jeez guys, it's not like this is 2girls1cup or anything. It's really not that bad. I'm just truly amazed this guy can function at all. Y'all have really weak stomachs I guess.

[Monty3038]

Nah, I didn't get grossed out, just got fascinated and wasted my lunch break watching it. But it is pretty gross... I wanted to see the result after fixing all of it.

[nutsinho]

Yes. Puts a lot of things about life in perspective, don't you think?

so does awareness of your own mortality. are you glad that you are aware that you are going to die some day?

[DrivingDog]

are you glad that you are aware that you are going to die some day?

As long as it's not today I don't really mind

im more scared of being like that than dying. or just getting old in general. its gonna suck being 50 with arthritis and not being able to play sports. although im optimistic by the time im a geezer well have cures for virtually everything.

Definitely. I don't fear death like I do paralysis or something of the like.

[nutsinho]

why would you fear death? You do not have to experience it. Being dead isn't scary at all. It's the thought that your existence will mainly be eternal nothingness that is so discomforting. If you aren't uncomfortable with death then you don't have a working brain.

I like being alive. It doesnt matter that I wont mind being dead because I wont like it. I like being alive more than ill like being dead so I dont particularly want to be in that state. I wont chose to be put in that state so I fear anything that would force me into it. My existence is precious to me. The thought of it ending therefore makes me feel uncomfortable.

If you aren't uncomfortable with death then you don't have a working brain.

Thats a ridiculous thing to say. Survival instinct is biologically programmed. If you ARE comfortable with death then you don't have a properly working brain. It should be pretty obvious which way this one swings. Go out and ask 20 people "are you comfortable with dying?". Id be very surprised if you were in the majority.

That was kind of my point... but a lot more words.

[pankfish]

The thing about being dead is it probably sucks. Unless being alive sucks then death will probably be pretty cool. amirite or amiwrong?

[EzDuzIt]

lol that was so fucking gross. shoulda scrolled down and read the DONT CLICKS first. not sure i can finish my ice cream now. ok who am i kidding im still eating it but that was some fuckin gross shit.

[Pelion]

I dont get why so many people are saying the video is so gross. Its just a person who through no fault of his own happens to be the wrong shape. Is that really so disgusting?

[nutsinho]

being dead=being unborn. did you enjoy that period of time?

[EzDuzIt]

who said it was his fault? that doesnt change the fact that its fucking disgusting.

yeah seriously, its pretty gross. the guy has about a cubic yard sized tumor on him.

since the topic of life and death came up, IMO, the reason people believe in heaven or past lifetimes/ future lifetimes, adds a comfort factor for them. they feel like oh well ill be okay since i went to church my whole life or will be born again, etc etc. more power to them i guess.

[ChrisBCritter]

being dead=being unborn. did you enjoy that period of time?

This doesn't seem well thought out. I'm not sure where you are going with this.

I have neither experienced nor have a recollection of being dead or unborn, but that doesn't make them equal. Where are you pulling this crap from? It is the unknown, how are you supposed to enjoy something that you haven't experienced? It is very common to have a fear of the unknown. But at the same time, I currently have life (as I know it). Death may be better or worse, but for now, I'd like to enjoy what I have.

[Lukie]

at first i was pretty grossed out, then i just convinced myself it wasn't real and now i feel much better

[pankfish]

being dead=being unborn. did you enjoy that period of time?

hmmm, I don't have any unpleasant memories from that period of time so I guess it wasn't all bad.

[Pelion]

being dead=being unborn. did you enjoy that period of time?

Not that I recall. Whats your point? That if you dont enjoy something you should be happy about doing it? That doesnt seem to make much sense. Are you saying you enjoyed being "unborn"? To be honest im not really sure what youre trying to say here at all.
