Re: A bottle of life
in another discussion somewhere far from here, i suggested that mortality and end is the something that makes life so precious.
Yeah... I've suggested the same thing to Prophex the 5,218,327 other times he's brought up this exact same subject on the forum. There's no real reasoning with him along these lines, because he's working from the base assumption that if something ends, it becomes meaningless.
I feel kinda sorry for him.

Re: A bottle of life
i don't suppose he's ever had an orgasm.
*snerk*
I don't wanna go so far as to say his balls haven't dropped yet, but I do think his perspective'll change a little once he's got a few more years on him, and has had enough time in life to have something end, and be able to look back on it fondly.
Little example for you, Prophex. I spent last night having drinks with an ex-girlfriend. She and I were together for a little under a year; we broke up this past August, and we're both seeing new people now.
Seeing her convinced me of two things.
1) Oh, it's so over.
2) She's a wonderful person, and my time with her was incredibly meaningful.

Re: A bottle of life
Its one thing to have a "relationship"
It's quite another to be incredibly patronizing.
Should they come up in the future, I'd appreciate if you don't refer to my relationships with sarcastic quote marks. You don't see me making quips about your "beautiful" mother.
