Members Super_Donut_Man Posted April 8, 2010 Members Share Posted April 8, 2010 I had a thought today. I would rather be euthenized than have to spend the rest of my dwindleing days in a "home" you people? In option #3, its not implying suicide.

Members Super Bass Posted April 8, 2010 Members Share Posted April 8, 2010 Having visited relatives in those places for many years I would never go there myself or send my parents there. They're just not nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frunobulax Posted April 8, 2010 Members Share Posted April 8, 2010 if you're talking a skilled nursing facility, i'm going to go out and shovel snow until the Big One comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lokidecat Posted April 8, 2010 Members Share Posted April 8, 2010 I'm 34, overweight, smoke, have poor sleeping habits, really tragic eating habits, don't drink nearly enough water in a day, and if I didn't walk so much at work (6 mi. per day) I would get zero exercise. I don't plan on reaching retirement let alone an age that would get me put in a home. EDIT: I don't plan on reaching 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators isaac42 Posted April 9, 2010 Moderators Share Posted April 9, 2010 Wait a minute. Are we talking a retirement home, or a nursing home? They're not the same thing, but we seem to be conflating them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kaesh Posted April 9, 2010 Members Share Posted April 9, 2010 I will have an explosive charge planted so I can press a button and blow up my relatives the moment they tell me they plan to put me in a retirement/nursing home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're not the same thing, but we seem to be conflating them. I think they mean the latter. the assisted care/convalescent facility-type place. not the old-people-apartment complex.

Members chubrocker Posted April 9, 2010 Members Share Posted April 9, 2010 My goal is to make it to 80! When I feel its time, I'm going to go outside my home (hopefully in the country) and go for a run.......hopefully I'm dead by the time the wolves reach me. It's better to burn out than fade away!!!
