Would you rather have 30 fantastic years or 70 mediocre ones?

[Ambivalent1]

I pick 30. Many people say the latter. My own family wants quantity over quality. What is wrong with these idiots?

 

[wagner2029]

It depends on each person's definition of mediocre.
If I were to live without insomnia it would be fine for me, I would choose 70

 

[iloverachel]

the less years, the better for me. I would pick 1 good year over 70 years of my current crap life

 

[xmissellax]

30 fantastic years 100%! I'm not here for a long time

 

[strangelife]

70 fantastic is better, I lived 41 fantastic years, I want more , but it seems impossible

 

[Ambivalent1]

70 is better

Repulsive

 

[Anon1337]

I'd never want to live to old age.

 

[Ambivalent1]

I'd never want to live to old age.

Not even Jesus lived past 33. He had the right idea. Crucifixion is better than old age.

 

[cjs0712]

I'll take 30, even though, I know I will regret it at the end of it.
But had I chosen the latter, I would regret my decision all throughout that 70 years.

 

[ijustwishtodie]

30 fantastic years. This one took me no time to think. I genuinely cannot comprehend why people would pick the 70 year option instead

 

[WhatPowerIs]

30. The less, the better.

Because they're fools

 

[notherenotnow]

30, for sure. The less the better

 

[ijustwishtodie]

Because they're fools

I guess that's what happens when they're so conditioned to think that any type of life is good even if they're doing nothing but suffering constantly through it. I've seriously seen these types of people say that living a life full of suffering is better than never having lived a life at all!

 

[leavingthesoultrap]

Easy choice. 30

When your time comes, you would make any deal with the the devil to have just a little more time with your loved ones.

I think nothing of them. It's a benefit of childhood abuse
i tend to form bonds with people outside my family more

That's explicitly why I didn't say family and said loved ones

 

[sserafim]

I would rather have 23 fantastic years. Less than 25

Dostoevsky: "what is hell? Hell is the inability to love." I have trouble saying I love anyone.

Sartre: "Hell is other people." Other people are hell because they judge you

 

[The Schizoid]

Why anyone choose more time with a diminished quality of life?

Drives to survive really do fuck with people.

Why would you pick quantity over quality? Seems stupid.

 

[Ambivalent1]

Yeah

 

[4am]

i would choose zero years, that would be even more fantastic

WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETER RAAAAHHH

 

[TiredOfAllThis]

"Mediocre years" in the sense of "ordinary" - w/o hard hits and a lot of euphoria - would be alright.
