I thought he was paraphrasing Cmdr. Riker in Star Trek Generations.

Life. When it is over and you are dead, don't cry because your life is over. People would get spooked if you started crying in your own funerals.

Smile instead.

I think they'd get spooked if I made ANY kind of movement at my own funeral.

Though I may request that they pose me giving the finger and a Billy Idol-esque sneer.

Smannesman: That sounds like terrible advice for rape victims.
And victims of terrorist attacks, home invasions, tax fraud etc.

TRUE:
more people are afraid of public speaking that dying, which means at a funeral more people would rather be the subject of the eulogy than the one giving it. :P

I'd say it's quite obvious, especially considering who said it, that it's about nice experiences in one's life, experiences that brought joy and happiness while they lasted.

Is it too negative to think that if you had those nice experiences with a partner/wife then that partner dispose of you saying the relationship is not worth fighting for - then the memories are proved to have no value? You know, because if it was valuable, its worth fighting for? (i got a scorched earth policy for all good memories in between 2007 to 2015)

Some goglodytes achieved immortality by great deeds of spamming or trolling. Some achieved immortality by amassing great backlogs. But mechmouse had long ago decided that he would, on the whole, prefer to achieve immortality by not dying.

There is an old Finnish proverb:

"Life is the best time of a man."

That is so true.

An excellent title! Like, for Brexit or President Trump! Even if the system's lackeys and thugs on payroll, manage to foil either, or even worse, both (god forbid)... Their supporters should smile because those actually happened! And against all odds, speculation, estimations, even!

An excellent suggestion, all in all!

This isn't a political thread Bradley and it's not a soapbox, for you, or me, or anyone else. So do us a favor and take a break from being an asshole for ten minutes.
