What's the point of a long life with no joy?

I'm in this cartoon and I half hate it that it's so obvious.

Joy comes from a lot of things besides drugs, smoking or alcohol.
friarRat
or tastes good. or feels good.

Can't be a day drinker unless you drink all day!

Such nonsense.

Why would anyone want to live a long joyless life

Moderation in everything, including Moderation

Life doesn't give me joy so I'll have to abstain from dying so I can become immortal.

Masturtbation improves health and it's fun, too

If you only live once, short and sweet is better than long and boring.

I mean, life is 100% terminal so if I gotta give up cheesecake to get 10 extra geriatric years? Fuck that.
AmArschdieRaeuber
But maybe don't smoke, that brings you a lot of cancer

Sometimes it do feel like that, but it don't gotta be like that unless you're incapable of finding a happy medium.
TheWhiteBarry
Counterpoint: lead a short but awesome life that fills every day with joy. And by joy I mean extra cheese, bacon, and cocaine.
Dontstopbelever2000ismyfavoritesoap
Pro-tip: It is super uncomfortable to try and blend bacon cheeseburgers with cocaine. They just dont mix

Life hack: Since you won't live through the climate apocalypse anyway, don't waste time trying to prolong your life more than 30 more years.

Most of the mediums I find, just try to guess names of dead relatives
GenshiV
I do believe you may be traveling in the wrong mediums. Much spoopier mediums.

Beat me to it.
rklsImmersion
It really is about balance. Drinking, drugs, extreme sports? Cool, just maybe chill out every once in awhile
Peynus
But don't chill out too much cos then you get other health issues

Move too much? Knees fucked. Move too little? Believe it or not, knees also fucked!

*moderation
SyntheticCK
Abstain from moderation. Got it.
confanity
See, this is a false choice, and a society that teaches you that you can only find joy in harmful shit is super fucked up.
Kompi
The overwhelming majority of things in life that brings joy is not harmful, but we take it for granted and narrow our focus on the excessive
jaramo811
You are absolutely right. And a lot of people circlejerk themselves on social media deeper into the opinion "unhealthy = joy".
confanity
I mean, I enjoy sugar and salt and all that, but exercise does feel good. Fresh fruits and veggies are delicious. They're not chores.
RevolutionOnHerLips
I hate exercise and eat shitty but I still don't think like this comic. Lots and lots of things can bring joy without being harmful.
TheOtherBoleynGirl
For me they feel like the worst chores. :(

4. And second, getting good mileage out of herbs and spices. Dillweed makes so many things like 500% better.

1. I'm sorry to hear that. Fortunately, with a little work it's possible to get un-addicted to the junk and able to appreciate fresh foods.
confanity
3. Making great food for yourself mostly lies in two simple tricks. First, combine flavors that complement each other.
confanity
2. Steamed fresh or frozen carrots or broccoli with a pat of butter are amazing, for starters. Or cut yellow bell pepper; it's very sweet.
mobiusm1
Technically not true anymore. If you're under 50, you're probably not gonna die of old age regardless. Might as well enjoy yourself.
Barronsprinkles
I'm here for a good time, not a long time.
MyPasswordIs1234
Pleasure is not the same as joy. If you think eating junk food and doing drugs can fill your life with joy, you are wrong.
TeaMan101
Bugger that, I’m here for fun times not long times
RummageSaleBubbler
Choose a Pareto optimal point along the tradeoff-curve of joy and long life. Negative example: not a physically and mentally grating job. 1/
RummageSaleBubbler
Choose to be as joyful and long lived as possible, where any-other choice would then reduce either long-term happiness or life. 2/3

I bet you're fun at parties (no /s) :)
RummageSaleBubbler
Thanks! In the right crowd, of the right style of geeks, yes.
MyleKeville
I think a real dr would suggest moderation of the things people enjoy.
IMakeLotsOfReferencesAndRemakes
Some people's moderation is other people's abstinence. So no I did not lie when I said I was a virgin Kate!
DonkeyBottomBiters
Which is a diplomatic saying of the same thing
MyleKeville
Do you not know the different between some and none?
DonkeyBottomBiters
Doctors would prefer you to stay away from certain substances, but will sometimese package that message in a nicer way. You know that right?
MyleKeville
Depends on the dr & the substance. Besides my original point was that no DR would say no to everything that is legally fun.
DonkeyBottomBiters
You're absolutely right. My point: The word "moderation" could be used as diplomatic way of saying "maybe that might be not a good idea".
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
Moderation in all things. Including moderation.
squade

I really hate that add on.

Or Ibuprofen.
maxwilder
I went through a rough time a couple weeks ago, and discovered ibuprofen really helped my temporary back and hip pain. Suddenly realized
maxwilder
that there are probably many people who are taking it multiple times a day for the rest of their lives.
iambrose
It can be super rough on the tummy though, so I take gabapentin instead. Or meloxicam?… mel something
tucker148
Meloxicam is also an NSAID so I’m guessing it is as bad as ibuprofen? Idk though
TheBishopofBanterbury
If it had been discovered today, it would never be OTC, so use it carefully, people.
itisanimgurnaccount
Cool, just a moderate amount of heroin then.
MrRandom314159
Yes, only enjoy the things you enjoy to a minimal degree.
swellguy18
Moderate != Minimal necessarily.
gandraw
Well you can either have 1 beer a day for 80 years or 5 beers a day for 50 years...
Hendlton
I'll take the beers, thank you.
Thor400
How many years do you get with 20 beers?
HasteTheFool
Or 5 beers a week for 70?
Raemnyx
That's.... Less than a beer a day
HasteTheFool
Or one good night a week.
Yepitsme2718
Yep. I'm 33. Went to the dr. He told me my liver is bad but not irreparable. Now havent drank in a month and its starting to look better
swellguy18
I'm also 33 and have drank 4 beers a night at 5% alcohol for a year or so. Could I ask what you drank, how long, and quantity?
Yepitsme2718
Usually IPAs about 7%, Vodka. Whiskey. Usually a six pack or two a week, and usually a bottle or two a month. So nothing too abnormal.
