Why would I want to extend my life?
Yeah I was like no thanks
So you can have 20 more years of existential crisis
No oxy, booze or smokes? Fuck that. Imma die at 48
My todo list will take me 3000 years. 20 years is a drip in the bucket.
To see the ending?
Humanity has been tripping over itself since we split the atom to destroy humanity. Whether from climate change, AI, CRISPR designed viruses, etc, we're doomed by our own hand in the next 50ish years. All of 200k of human history and 10k of recorded human history has led us to this. We appear to be the fortunate ones that get to witness HOMO SAPIEN: The Epic, Catastrophic, Embarrassing Conclusion. This is damn exciting stuff.
You're really going to turn off Independence Day just before they blow up all the iconic buildings?!

"Have perfect existence and you should live long time"
Thanks?
But if it's imperfect, at least it's not as long.
But cigarettes and binge drinking help manage stress!
There's definitely a sweet spot 🤤
Live a low stress life in the first place. Eventually you discover that there are plenty of jobs, so the worst they can do is fire you, and find a new one. Unless you are in a war zone, sorry I can't help the few of you in that situation, but most of us are not, and so realistically most stressful situations people find them in are not stressful. And in turn because they are not stressful you are a better worker since you know the pressure isn't really anyway.
What's next, "Five Secrets to Becoming a Better Lover"? Jesus fucking Christ.
"Have positive social relationships"
Oh well that counts me out then haha

Boy I’m glad I’m doing 8/8 things here. 🫨
Judging by the way things are going I think I’ll pass on those 24 extra years.
3/8, who wants to help me get to 0
Which ones are you missing?
Cigarettes, binge drinking, and opium addiction. I figure I can start smoking opium cigarettes and hit two-in-one.
You can also drink opium, so if you don't like the smokes, you can get fancy.
The article only says avoid cigarettes. So maybe you can simply drink your opiumargarita in the smoking area of a pub and hit all three at once!
Doesn't say a thing about meth.
So, born rich?
Eat well
That is an euphemism for "don't eat anything yummy".
It may or may not extend your life, but it will make it feel unbearably long.
6/8 ain't bad

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
