That they might possibly be able to live hundreds of years? Unlikely but possible.

And wouldn’t that piss you off to know that of all the years to be born we were born just 50-100 years to soon?

Or worst of all, what if they prevent deaths from old age when we are like 90 years old and we have to be 90 years old for hundreds of years while younger people get to be 20 something for hundreds of years. And in that case, do you think they would lose respect for their elders after awhile?

My brother used to have a digital wristwatch that was actually a secret universal remote-control device, and he used to go into bars and switch channels on the TVs. It became a game with him to find increasingly tougher bars to do this in – sports bars during playoffs, biker bars. May he rest in peace.

where I grew up, we didn’t have fireflies and I wondered what all the fuss was about. now, our neighborhood is magic with them. we were using ordinary leftover plastic containers to catch them but I was driven to tears with the many accidental deaths as they got jammed in the lids and banned their use. only official Insect Catching Jars are permitted.
