We all die, sorry to say. How you conduct yourself in the face of that fact is all that matters. But thanks for your opinion.


I don't really even know how to respond to that.

I suspect you're not really sorry that we die, as you seem to think that when faced with death, the proper response is to accept one's fate.

I would understand your attitude if setting up a website meant that kittens had to die, or someone else had to suffer, but seeing as this isn't a zero-sum game, I don't.

How do you know that Amit isn't feeling ashamed of needing to publicise this? How do you know it's not his friends that have almost 'forced' him to do this?

I honestly don't get why you felt you needed to unzip your flies and piss all over this. Has this triggered some personal memory?


> you seem to think that when faced with death, the proper response is to accept one's fate.

I think the proper response is to realize that millions of people are also faced with death, that everyone WILL be faced with death, and to temper your actions with modesty and humility.

> Has this triggered some personal memory?

How did you know...sobs.
