And yet he lived 2 decades past 40

>underground man = dostoevsky
based retard

>>15043766
Underground man ≠ Dostoevsky: midwit take;
Underground man = Dostoevsky: retard and/or genius take

you people know where this quote is from?

>>15044167
from a letter to his brother

>>15044559
was it after his "execution"?

>>15043700
This is why he was a gambler. Remember to buy lottery tickets and remember planning for life after 40 is pointless.

bump

>>15044021
retard and or/ genius meme == retard
not using c++ format == double retard

Maybe he should go outside

>>15044587

Caring about that question at all is midwit. What are you a fucking biographer?

Dying closer to 40 is probably a lot more environmentally and societally sustainable than living to extreme old age. Modern healthcare will make any environmentalists’ efforts futile

>>15043700
should be 60-65 maybe

>>15047697
dying closer to 0 is even more sustainable

>>15043700
Also, Ivan Karamazov said something similar about living after 30. I don't remember

>living past 30

>>15047798
correct

Is there any justifiable reason to live into old age besides plain fear of death? Why would anyone willingly enter a personal hell of elderly existence, defined by ruined health, seniled intellect, poopy pants, by forgetting all the beautiful books you've read and clever ideas you once held, by losing a grasp on the world around you until every human is a spectral alien that terrifies you. Slow daily degradation into a toothless, stupid zombie with bad odour, gormlessly waiting for death to finally come and collect whatever is left of your time-ravaged soul. All for what? To linger on a few more decades? How noble.

why people take this autist seriously is beyond me

>>15048770
That only happens when you retire and stop being active physicaly and mentaly, there are many old people that i met that are fully functional and active.

So stop chuging down retarded blackpills cunt.

>bro if you just lift and read you'll die as a healthy Chad at the age of 150 trust me bro I know people

>>15049128
Yeah if you stop consooming shit food everyday and addictive substances i see no reason for not being able to reach 80+ years easily

No one should live past Jesus' age.

>>15044167
Thats the dumbest shit I've read.

to be honest notes from the underground got me into reading

>>15051030
Happiness won't be found through strenuous thinking, true.

>>15043700

One should never stiffen up on a sentence that was once written down. Books can only serve as guides, but they will never be able to define your own reality. If he saw it that way, then honestly good for him.
Or not, what does it matter at all.
Smoking is bad you, you shouldn't smoke but if you do, you have to face the consequences.


You can still have fun at 40, we don't live in the Middle Ages dude.

>>15043700
It's the underground man, he's just neuroticism magnified to absurd proportions.

Hey, does anyone have the Notes From the Underground edit of the "y-you too" meme?
