4. "Attack life, it's going to kill you anyway. -- Steven Coallier"
Actually, it's probably not.
That's one of the problems with being immortal—at least, if you don't want to be (Why the fuck anyone would want to be is something I cannot comprehend. Of all the curses in my life, this one is probably the worst, though less so now than it was) –that life's not, actually, going to kill you.
There was a popular phrase going around a few years ago "Immortal just means 'not dead yet'." I think it came out of one of those god-awful teen dramas, but I can't tell you where I heard it.
I nearly laughed myself sick the first time I did.
I've been dead. It doesn't stick.
And I've never been quite suicidal enough to throw myself into the kind of things that might actually permanently kill me. Quite.
Apparently some people believed I was, given the last couple of years... but that gets a bit off topic, doesn't it?
