Sucks he didn't die.
Only the good die young I've heard
Checks out.
In France we have Jean-Marie Le Pen. He tortured people and was friends with nazis. He's 96 and still alive.
For any wondering, no, that's not a coincidence. He is Marine Le Pen's father.
I don't agree with the idea of punishing people for their parent's crimes, they may turn out alright in spite of their relationship to their parents. That has no bearing on Marine, tho. Hope France does everything in their power to keep her away from anything that counts as influence, tho.
That's awful!
No one is too old to taste a bat
Counterpoint: Jimmy Carter made it to 100.
True, and Betty White to 99, just a couple weeks plus change from her 100th.
They're very much the EXCEPTION rather than the rule, though..
"Only the good die young" logically implies that good people can live a long time, but bad people will never die young. A counterexample would be someone who was an absolute shitbag and also died young.
Statistically speaking some of those kids with cancer have to be assholes, right? Some of those assholes might turn out bad, if they lived.
I guess one could argue they weren't completely bad when they died since they were kids.
Jimmy "I invented the Contras and moved them posing as Red Cross" Carter?
How many deaths do you think Jimmy was responsible for being a peanut farmer?
I used to think that was just a saying but now that I'm in my 40s, it has generally held true, and it suuuucks.
There's always next time ☺️
