Title: Will I be missed?
Post by: Primemuscle on April 19, 2013, 12:54:03 AM
I was just thinking....not to be morbid, but I am old compared to most folks on Getbig. I  think some folks here view me as  if I am something like a Pedo playing in the kiddies sandbox (flame on).

What I wondered was, do I make a difference? Do I bring something valuable to the Getbig  forums? If I died tomorrow, would any of you give a rip? Of course, you probably would never know because I would simply disappear from these forums. Clearly, I have no claim to fame like, say, Nasser or some others who have passed and are either remembered or ridiculed here.

Before you all jump on this like flies on shit, keep in mind everyone either gets old or dies young. I am not dying BTW, in case you were hoping I was. Still, my remaining time in this life could certainly be a lot shorter than some folks here. I am not looking for sympathy....everyone dies sooner or later. I accept my fate and I am not looking for preferential treatment. So please do not cut me any slack as I suspect you won't.

Perhaps I am just having a moment of melancholia. Like most folks, I would like to believe I made a difference to someone, somewhere. I know I will be missed by my family and friends, but will I be missed in any larger sense. Before you kill me with your responses, I hope you will give this some thought, because there but for you, go I.

You bring some interesting thoughts here "thinking outside the box so to speak" so hang around until you are dead. A memorial service will be held here.

Yes, I get that my post is very self serving as compared to the situation in Boston. I cannot resolve the horrific events that happened in Boston and neither can you. From what I have read here, conspiracy theories about that event abound. Clearly the world is in deep shit. My coming or going is nothing compared to world affairs like this. I was not attempting to put little old me in that perspective.

Like I said, flame on.

It is not like others have never given these things a thought.

Difference in what?  on the board? maybe.

On people who come to the boards lives?  

Of course not.

Go volunteer or do something more constructive with this board time if you want it to have made a difference.

This place is nothing like real life.  It is for time that is there to be wasted.  Entirely forgettable.

It makes me feel sad to read what you're saying.  This is just a playground.

Seriously, rethink your time spending if you think like that.  It's awful.  You could do a lot more for people outside, in the real world.

Great advice. Thank you for this.

Just so you know, I do volunteer a great deal of my time for various causes. In some respects I am busier now then when I was working. Still at a certain age, it is not uncommon to try an access our worth in any given endeavor.

Getbig is in part a time filler for me. In the course of any day, my time spent on Getbig means less then the time I spend doing things for others outside the Internet.

Perhaps I am trying to give Getbiggers a reputation to live up to. I am a sensitive guy. I give a fuck what people think, even Internet acquaintances. As for blurring the lines between the Internet and real life, I am sure I do that.  To some degree you all have replaced the socializing that I enjoyed with the folks I worked with. You probably can't understand this if you are not retired, but think about it. When you work, you spend at least 40 hours a week socializing with the other folks you worked with.

I will give you that it is escapism to spend time here. My wife is very ill. I spend a lot of time with her every day, taking care of her. Much of the time I am posting on Getbig while she is snoozing in the chair next to me. I want to be with her and be there for her when she needs me, but doing so can be boring too. So yes, I am often just passing time while posting here. Never-the-less, I am somewhat invested in the interchange Getbig offers me.

Booty, it is good to know that you are not the only person that finds me irritating sometimes. I suspect my children would agree with you. And yes, I do have issues with analyzing folks and sometimes getting it all wrong, but my intentions are honorable, if that means anything. I analyze folks because I care about people.

I laughed out loud when I read this, because the last thing I want is a funeral. If you'd like to attend the blowout party I've requested my children or wife give me after I've gone, you are welcome. I am not a morbid person despite how this thread I started may make me seem. I am a fatalist. We live and we all die. Better to celebrate death than to mourn it, IMO.

Who knows, maybe I'll go to Paris or London to die. That way, everyone who wants to will have an excuse to travel to one of Europe's great cities for the ultimate bash.
Title: Re: Will I be missed?
Post by: calfzilla on April 19, 2013, 01:49:35 AM
Ok have your kids pm me when you are gone. Hopefully not for many many years. Best wishes to you and the wife. I had a family member die of the same ailment.

Prime, how old are you? I am 54 and have cheated death many times over. I rarely think about death. When I do I welcome it. Not being morbid but I deal with severe back pain ever minute so that is my reasoning. I know I won't be missed here when i am gone. Unless I start a thread about how good kings are. ;D

Vince Basille would be at the funeral in a heartbeat...

That being said I had 2 best friends die one after the other 1 year apart both 23 and 24 , then my mom passed a year later from cancer. All happened in a span of 3 years

U never know just enjoy and move on , no time for grudges and Internet battles/bickering

I actually know of three guys I worked with in the past three years that have died from heart attacks working out. The age range was 44 to 54. Two of the three were in fantastic shape.

At some point you have to realize you're not bullet proof. Youth gets away with using bodybuilding drugs and shooting who knows what is really in the vial with a syringe. Health is never thought about. When you get into your 50 I hope health is a major consideration concerning training.

Like you Prime I enjoy this site. It makes me laugh but it also makes me hope this isn't a representative of what the youth of today is like. Bodybuilding is a real sub culture of a sport that does tend to interest some misfit people. If you ever doubt this walk through the Olympia expo and tell me you didn't drop into a freak show of fans.

Yes you do! You will be missed Primeromo.

We don't have many that bald old (ancient) dudes left here on GB!

Of course you make a difference with your all too serious posts, almost never cracking a joke where you you never follow-up on an infantile joke with a typical Getbiggian response such as Hope this Helps, Meltdown, Outed, Gayer than etc..

You have your own special style!

you've heard of Dr. Kenneth Cooper, right? he was the "running/aerobic guru" form the 1970's and 80's that told everybody to run, run, run and about 15 years ago or so he basically said something like this... "anyone who exercises for more that an hour or so per week, is not doing it for health reasons"

he said this after he "discovered" that these "health nuts" that he knew (guys who ate very clean diets and exercised nearly everyday) were dying at relatively young ages from heart attacks and cancer, and he attributed this to "over-training"

Thanks Booty and Willie, I have been through a lot of shit in the last ten years or so along with my wife and 2 daughters! Since before we got married She lost her father to stomach cancer, my mother died of Alzheimers, my father died but just missed his 90th birthday by 2 weeks! And of course my brother! Also other issue's that have happened along the way! Not to drone on and bring everyone down. My point is enjoy life and don't take anything for granted cause it can change in an instant!

Exactly Ronnie, my dad died 2 years ago, after being in a Nursing home for 5 years. You never know when you are going to go down.

Prime, how old are you? I am 54 and have cheated death many times over. I rarely think about death. When I do I welcome it. Not being morbid but I deal with severe back pain ever minute so that is my reasoning. I know I won't be missed here when i am gone. Unless I start a thread about how good kings are. ;D

I am 68 and in great health. I recently started having problems with sciatica caused by degenerative disk disease (basically arthritis). Sciatica is a pain (literally) sometimes. Other times, it isn't too bothersome. People don't die from sciatica. Not sure I have ever cheated death like you. That must be a scary proposition.

Vince Basille would be at the funeral in a heartbeat...

That being said I had 2 best friends die one after the other 1 year apart both 23 and 24 , then my mom passed a year later from cancer. All happened in a span of 3 years

U never know just enjoy and move on , no time for grudges and Internet battles/bickering

The older one gets the more likely it is that they have experienced the death of friends and family. Still, it must have been difficult to lose two friends and your mom in such a short time period.

I wonder how Vince's arm workouts are going?

I actually know of three guys I worked with in the past three years that have died from heart attacks working out. The age range was 44 to 54. Two of the three were in fantastic shape.

At some point you have to realize you're not bullet proof. Youth gets away with using bodybuilding drugs and shooting who knows what is really in the vial with a syringe. Health is never thought about. When you get into your 50 I hope health is a major consideration concerning training.

Like you Prime I enjoy this site. It makes me laugh but it also makes me hope this isn't a representative of what the youth of today is like. Bodybuilding is a real sub culture of a sport that does tend to interest some misfit people. If you ever doubt this walk through the Olympia expo and tell me you didn't drop into a freak show of fans.


I have grandchildren who are probably about the same age as some of the younger folks here. Judging from what they post on their Facebook pages, I would say that not all youth are like the youth on Getbig.

There was a time when I wanted to be one of those muscle freaks....I got over it.

Some folks train too hard and ignore the symptoms and causes of poor health. I one pays attention, there are usually warning signs before you have a heart attack and die from it, but not always.

death happens when you are truly sick of life deep down inside

keep your purpose strong as you can

This is heavy stuff Falcon. I will keep the above advice and the heme iron advice in mind. Actually, I have reduced the quantity of meat I eat by a lot lately. I not only eat meat less often, I eat smaller portions. -Can't give it up all at once, it would probably put my body into shock!  ;D

you've heard of Dr. Kenneth Cooper, right? he was the "running/aerobic guru" form the 1970's and 80's that told everybody to run, run, run and about 15 years ago or so he basically said something like this... "anyone who exercises for more that an hour or so per week, is not doing it for health reasons"

he said this after he "discovered" that these "health nuts" that he knew (guys who ate very clean diets and exercised nearly everyday) were dying at relatively young ages from heart attacks and cancer, and he attributed this to "over-training"

I don't think I am in any danger of dying from over training.  :D

Prime, you seriously could have decades in you. Don't waste them. Fill them with fine wines, sea views and trips to Machu Picchu. Don't just wake up, put on a pot of coffee, and log into getbig to see whom booty is currently e-dating and is attacking the last guy she e-dumped, who has now become her e-stalker.. Or to look at Tbombz's ass - fun as that is.

Honestly though, make sure you do something to surprise yourself once in a while. Life in the old dog yet, eh. No maudlin stuff like this.

Good advice. I am trying not to waste my life away. Machu Picchu might have to wait for awhile. My wife is not healthy enough to travel right now and I am not going to leave home while I travel alone. So I fill my time with posts about Booty's romantic adventures, Tbombz butt photos (what was he thinking when he posted those photos?). It is fun to see where his ass is going to show up next....probably not for him though. ;D

I good with the fine wines and sea views.

Do you still consume dairy?

When I was at a prostate cancer meeting last Monday night, the speaker was a dietician who is also a vegan. She maintains that dairy is particularly bad for folks when it comes to cancer and heart disease. I am just not quite ready to become a cow or a sheep, spending all my time eating grass.  ;D She was big on soy. I read where soy grows tits on some men. I am not interested in looking like a female.

what are you 95?

I was just thinking....not to be morbid, but I am old compared to most folks on Getbig. I  think some folks here view me as  if I am something like a Pedo playing in the kiddies sandbox (flame on).

What I wondered was, do I make a difference? Do I bring something valuable to the Getbig  forums? If I died tomorrow, would any of you give a rip? Of course, you probably would never know because I would simply disappear from these forums. Clearly, I have no claim to fame like, say, Nasser or some others who have passed and are either remembered or ridiculed here.

Before you all jump on this like flies on shit, keep in mind everyone either gets old or dies young. I am not dying BTW, in case you were hoping I was. Still, my remaining time in this life could certainly be a lot shorter than some folks here. I am not looking for sympathy....everyone dies sooner or later. I accept my fate and I am not looking for preferential treatment. So please do not cut me any slack as I suspect you won't.

Perhaps I am just having a moment of melancholia. Like most folks, I would like to believe I made a difference to someone, somewhere. I know I will be missed by my family and friends, but will I be missed in any larger sense. Before you kill me with your responses, I hope you will give this some thought, because there but for you, go I.

I don't mean their ideology, but the person themselves. Life is moving way too fast for anyone to be truly missed other than loved ones. Just the way it is and has always been. And it's not gonna stop. Many people have god complexes that think otherwise.

I basically have a couple of time periods that I have paid lots of attention to.

The times during WWI and WWII are what I've been watching a lot of on Military and History Channel so I just happen to remember that Wilson was the guy who wanted to start the League of Nations after WWI. I extrapolated it from that really.

I'm working on the Civil War from a historical perspective right now and will eventually go back to the War of 1812 and the Revolution. I will probably come back to Vietnam after that.
