That it will end one day. Eternal life fantasies mess you up.

@Cyracuz,
And that it's SUPPOSED to end someday. It's feels good to know that you are SUPPOSED to die someday...that you were born to die. As such your death is not confused with some kind of failure.

How to create firearms and ammo.

This may not seem important until you find yourself in a post-apocalyptic world where large mutants with crude swords try and make you their bitch.

Seriously...

If there's an afterlife, it will be very cool.

If there isn't, you won't know it.

It's all good.

Fear dying, not death.

Oh wait, here's another one:

No one on his death bed wishes he had spent more time in the office.

But by the same token, don't buy into any crap about living your life as if each day is your last.

This is nonsense. If you do, you are likely to hasten the end of your days because you will find yourself penniless and in jail and seeking to hang yourself with your shoe laces.

If you get lost in the Southern hemisphere, solar panels grow on the North side of houses . Very important .

If you ever get lost in the norwegian wilderness without a compass, it may be good to know that anthills always lie on the south side of trees and rocks. Moss grows on the south side of trees, and unless local conditions make it otherwise, trees tend to have more branches on the south side. All this is due to the fact that the sun is in the south, so if you are on the southern hemisphere I reckon it would be the other way around Wink

You can tell which side of the equator your on by looking at how toilet paper rolls are loaded. In the northern hemisphere toilet paper is loaded to feed over the top, in the southern hemisphere it feeds from the bottom.

@Cyracuz,
That's right! They live for the future, and forget this is all there is.
