    In 2014, the Tehran Times reported that Haji would eat roadkill, smoke a pipe filled with animal excrement, and believed that cleanliness would make him ill. Photos showed him smoking multiple cigarettes at once.

    :warf-wtf:

        Genes are weird. I can't count on my hands and feet the number of fit 30-40 year-olds I've seen die from non-traumatic medical issues. People who did everything right lifestyle-wise but one genetic quirk in the wrong direction makes their heart give out on their daily 5 mile run. It's so arbitrary who gets that and who can abuse themselves into their 90s without consequence. A universe that truly does not give a solitary fuck.

          I want to know if I have any of those genetic quirks :scared:

            I go back and forth on getting DNA testing. My family usually lives into their 80s-90s and 3/4 grandparents died to dementia of one kind or another, so I know I have that but the rest is a mystery. Having an additional sense of impending doom beyond climate change and imperial collapse would be a bit much.

      Old people otside the imperial core are not as old as they claim. Because record keeping was not as good 80 years ago. And old people like claiming they are older than they are. That is partly why southern italy and okinawa have so many people suposedly over 100.

      As an anecdote my grandma claimed she was in her 90s but there was. No original birth certificate amd grampa who would suposedly have been little older would have been in his mid 80s at the time.

          How so? the reason i gave is poor records wich are a material not a racial factor.

          Also the exaples i gave are italians who are white. Japanise. Grandma who was not white. And maybe this guy who depending on what you ask may or maynot be white. So an ethnically varied sample.
