After having this conversation with a friend I figured I would share it with the rest of you. Mainly becuase I found it highly amusing afterwards. Seriously wonder where do I get these things from...?! It was through text message, so I will just post the conversation how it went. K= Me. T= Them.
T: I am tired again today. Up till 3 and then up at 6:30 for work. I really have to stop that.
K: Yes, you should probably tone it down a bit. Time to grow up and act old like you are.
T: Maybe, but I can act old when I am dead.
K: Yes you can, but you might end up dead alot earlier than you planned if you're not careful.
T: I made it far already, I got atleast another 30 years to go before I need to slow down.
K: good luck with that. You will be a decrepit old person by the time you are 40 at this rate
T:I wouldn't go as far as decrepit. Maybe just well used. Aged? Ripe? Matured?
K: i'd compare it to the difference between grapes and raisins. Without the proper care its not wine quality therefore its destined to be a raisin if its not just a grape (therefore eaten (dead) in its prime). And really raisins are just humiliated grapes. they aren't enjoyed with dinner, unlike wine. Instead they are covered in chocolate in an attempt to make them edible. Trust me, you don't want to be chocolate dipped. Sure chocolate is great every once in a while but once you get past the coating theres still only just a disappointing raisin inside.
K: And yes, I did just compare you to grapes and raisins
T:Grapes and Raisins eh? I don't think I will be shrivelling up by 40... You must have contemplated this before.
K: no actually I just came up with it now. I know. My on the fly metaphorical and analogy skills are impressive. I didn't imply that you would have the physical qualities of a raisin. I only compared your future life situation to that of a raisin. The physical characteristics may or may not be the same. too soon to tell.
T: Ok, thanks for clarifying because I intend to look no different than I do today... forever
K: Please let me know the secret. Not that I want to use it for myself, but so I can market and sell it to the world and make millions off your idea.
And sadly enough I never did learn the secret. So for now, I'm still on plan A for making my millions. So be it.
