Mating may be many things good or bad, Oswald, but I wouldn’t call puerile one of them.
TV, on the other hand… I gather your host liked PBS or some such.
And people said TV can“t teach you/makes you stupid. XD
“And one day, I looked down on the letters of my cage, and understood them.”
When one gets older, the idea of eating, mating and short life become rather… Meaningless…
You feel not so much the hunger, as you use the food to near nothing and after years of living most food will turn ash in your mouth.
Sex, if one is even able in his or hers golden years, becomes something of a nuisance to many and even painful to some, with only some others enjoying it all the way to their after-years.
And short life? Well, lets just say that life can be most horrying thing when you spend even a whole week alone, being able to do really nothing… And the time, no matter how short it is, will become longer than you could have ever imagined…
And no. Haven’t experience any of that, least to that scale myself, but all of that has been witnessed from people around me.
@ Uhl: What? a fellow NIMHcompoop? AWESOME!!! *fan squees*
