I think there's less comedy and such in Asian countries because it's probably hard to write jokes with all those weird characters. Why haven't the Chinese and Japanese and that admitted that alphabetic systems are better and adopted them instead of the whole character thing? It's obvious. I think it's an issue with their pride.
ObsoleteAs an added bonus, if we got rid of those stupid symbols, we'd have less suckers with Chinese character tattoos. If you like China so much, don't get a lame tattoo. Make yourself useful, pull a ricksaw.
I've been thinking about the world's problems more and more lately. I feel pretty proud that I'm coming out way ahead on this whole medical insurance thing. Lost the bet on that one with me there Cigna.
I'm not a complainer though, I always come with solutions. It's obvious to me that the main health care problem going on is all the old people holding on for no reason.
Once you have to get in a motorized cart and it takes 3 hours to do your grocery shopping and then another 3 stuck trying to figure out self-checkout just to go home to an empty house wreaking of moth balls while your husband is dead and your kids wish you were too, why not just call it a life and give up?But instead invariably they end up hooked up to some machine for 5 some-odd years just wasting doctor's times and hospital beds and money. I don't like that one bit. That's why I came up with my
Cash For Corpses program. What do you get out of laying around developing bed sores on the brink of death for months on end when in the background it's really just a constant exchange of capital and resources between insurance (maybe) or your Medicare and the hospital? Cut your losses, enter the
Cash For Corpses program. Take the needle, enter the sweet release of death, and then get some of the cash that would have been spent keeping you alive for no reason to give to your family or what have you. Or if you don't like your family, use that
Cash For Corpses money to get a statue of yourself built in the local park. It's up to you.
Can't Remember Her Family AnywayDoctors will be happier and more efficient because they won't be bogged down with all these old bags all the times, and then maybe they'll have more time to help people that are actually salvageable, or to do some research or whatever their heart desires. Your kids and grandkids (who hate you) won't have to worry about you anymore, and if you want, you can buy them a Nintendo DSi or some such thing with your payout.
And anyone coming at me with a "Hey, when you're that old, you'll want to stay alive" argument can shove it. I even have had some second thoughts about my rather hefty (and growing) 401K account, because what are the odds I'll make it to sixty? I'm not even half way there and I'm already kinda tired of hanging about.

Cash for corpses has my vote! Expectations of the American public need to change. Healthcare professionals have an ethical duty to save your life when in acute danger, not keep you alive forever in your depressed and miserable state. Just take the Morphine and go home to your family or cat and quit trying to raise the national age average.
