Some Pratt has complained about the term " Coffin Dodgers" does it offend, does it make you smile, has the bloody world gone stupid with P.C. Myself, 62, Could not give a sht, I have had my life, I hope the next is more stable, peaceful, without evil bsds roaming around.

[lslowry]

[Bobbisox]

it doesn't bother me and I am 64 this year..lol

[Francis Asis]

I'm astonished that you are saying "I've had my life" at only 62. Do you really consider that old?

In this day and age the "Older generations" are getting "More younger" due to healthier living, breakthroughs in medicine, advances in surgery, transplants and the better understanding of illnesses. One day they will be fully able to "Rebuild" you fully as one day they will have "The technology" to do it.

Generally speaking I can see why some of your language could offend some people. If someone disagrees with you then you resort to calling them a derogatory name. Perhaps you might think of the affect your postings could have on someone who may recently have been bereaved, or may be approaching an anniversary. I remember the late Ted Ray saying that he would never tell any joke about death or funerals etc, because there will always be someone in the audience who has just lost a loved one.

i,d like to think I could dodge a coffin for a few years yet-- am determined to try !!!!

[TWR]

Yours is the type of answer people should should come back with Brenda, after all it's the way people take it, If someone said that to me I would reply with Humor.,

[lumination]

i dont think its offensive, hell it think its crazy that we cant sing baa baa black sheep anymore! the world has gone nuts!

[Davethedog]

Its PC madness - perhaps the phrase fataly deprived is more adequate.

[TWR]

Well, I see that there "are" people opening their coffins & giving good humorous answers, The people with LD I care for can laugh, how do I know! I humor them.

Usually with this sort of thing it is not so much what is said, but how it is said and how it is meant.

Oh and one can feel there's not a lot left one feels a need to do at any age. Feeling one's come to a point where life is less important becomes more acute when health matters become a concern too.
