It matters because if you paid attention the beginning of the conversation the discussion was based around people living longer than they do now.
Do whatever you want, I don't care. You can go outside and kill yourself right now just so you don't have to get old.

You were the one who brought up medical advances allowing us to live much longer in the future so...kind of sounds like you'll be propping yourself up against those as well. My point is that often times in the late stages of life, medical advances that allow people to live for a lot longer don't allow them to live up to a desirable quality of life and that death is preferable.
Then again, I'm nihilistic as **** sometimes and find no real magic or value in life now that I've already experienced some of it. The facts of life don't give a **** about me, so I return the favour.

No, I wasn't really talking about medical advances propping people up to make them live longer. I'm talking about all the scientific discoveries that will come out so that we don't die from crap that we die from today. Cancer, Aids and other diseases being cured I mean.
