Hey! We don't have problems...
Okay, but they aren't that bad...
Are they?

Re: Has there been a question thread before?
 

You have problems, why didn't you say? Maybe we could have helped out?

Re: Has there been a question thread before?
 

Do you really think you can help me with my problems?

Re: Has there been a question thread before?
 

Nah. And now I have to apologise for duplicate posting but it was at Variol's *insistence*: is there such a thing as good sunburn on a pecker?

SOL you will be for an answer on this thread!

Who's already decided on their own epitaph?

Re: Has there been a question thread before?
 

Ooh! I want mine to be "weird, but classy". With a picture of a t-rex in a top hat.
Can anyone sort that for me if I die unexpectedly?

Channeling Yoda are you, Variol?

As for an epitaph, I hadn't thought about it too much. I have come across four things I like to keep in mind:

First, your tombstone isn't about when you were born or when you died. It's about the dash in between those two dates... how you lived your dash.

Second, the idea behind life is not to conserve it carefully, but to slide into your casket at the last minute on a body that's worn out going "wow! What a rush!"

Third, when I was born, I cried while everyone else was smiling (or so I'm told). When I die, I'd like to be smiling while they're all crying.

And finally, in the casket I should be buried with a fork, because just like all those potluck dinners where you were told to keep your fork because something better - dessert - was coming, so it is with life. And I'm keeping my fork ;)

I do have to confess that most of these have been lifted from other sources, such as Chicken Soup for the Soul. But I find them applicable just the same.

What about you?

I can handle that for you, DS. Were you expecting to need it any time soon?

Damn, do I need to start answering my own questions now?
