   They don't call it "Le petite mort" for no reason….

   
   You reminded me of Schopenhauer's "Devil's Laughter". The post-orgasm moment of clarity when we realize we're slaves to our biological imperative, uncaring of our happiness.
   
   From his essay, On Women
   
   

   Only a male intellect clouded by the sexual drive could call the stunted, narrow-shouldered, broad-hipped and short-legged sex the fair sex … More fittingly than the fair sex, women could be called the unaesthetic sex. Neither for music, nor poetry, nor the plastic arts do they possess any real feeling of receptivity: if they affect to do so, it is merely mimicry in service of their effort to please.

   Most people really are in denial about death. They'll think about it every once in a while of course, but they'll never come to terms with the fact that they themselves one day will die. Listen to the 9-1-1 calls on 9/11. "We're not supposed to be dying now. We're supposed to be dying as old men in our beds." No, you're supposed to be dying now, because death can happen at any moment… it's not some far away fantasy that'll happen to you when you're a senile old man.

   
   I mean going by the numbers that's a more realistic thing to expect than the imminent demise you seem to be convinced is just around the corner for all of us.

   Just FYI, I googled the numbers just then, and people have a 1 in 3 chance of dying before they're old.

   I'm not sure you really know what "semantics" means but is there some way in which I failed to address the non-surface elements of your post? Surprise at dying in a highly non-typical way seems justified, expecting the typical life really doesn't seem to be denial to me.

   You only think I don't know what semantics means, because you can't compute that what you said is semantics, because...
   
   YOU. ARE. IN. DENIAL. ABOUT. DYING.
   
   Let's assume that you're wrong, and not dying as an old person IS non-typical. Let's say 99.99% of people only died in old age.
   
   To people, that old age will never come. It's a fantasy to them. They don't picture themselves as ever being old. And therefore, they don't picture themselves dying either.

   What is death denying lol. People arnt in denial of the fact that one day there gonna die. There's just know point in dwelling on it. I wouldn't say in denial I'd say it's an unpleasant thought to put in back of ones mind. You seem to think you know what being In denial of death is but what to you is not being in denial of death?

    I think about death almost 24/7. I know I'm going to die. I know how fleeting the experience of life is.
    
    And yet I do nothing with it. I just sit in my room. What is there to even do though? What the fuck should I be doing?

    
    Same. Other people change the world. I sit around doing nothing.
