Getting hit by a bus is bad for your health but is any of the above really that bad?
wheres the proof you were not going to die on the day you did if you done none of the above?

I enjoy all of the above (apart from being hit by buses). Life's too short, and I want to make mine even shorter. Go on, crack open another can of beer, spark up a ciggy and have a kebab. I dare you!

Well buddy, since you want to get technical...If you never drank smoke, or ate bad, you're right. You may end up getting hit by a bus or have a tornado drop down on you in the middle of the night, or make a mistake and shoot yourself while trying to clean your weapon--oops, I had a flashback! But you won't die from heart disease or TOBACCO INDUCED lung, mouth, or throat cancer, or obesity. You may even live longer, I can't say because there are a lot of factors that go into staying alive. Listen, stay off the street corners, get bulletproof windows, don't go outside, drink water and eat herbs, and do tv yoga and you'll prosper. Oh yeah, take a vitamin d supplement because without the sun you'll make no vitamin d. But then again, being in the sun too long could cause skin cancer. You see what I'm getting at? Too much of anything is bad. Do it in moderation. Except smoking. Smoking is juat plain old not good for you. It had no physical benefit. Not even an endorphin rush. At least with eating a high fat pfood, you body gets a feel good chemical rush. Live life to the fullest. and exercise. This is the only one you got.

You could also get hit by a bus because you were as drunk as a ****, couldn't move fast enough to avoid the bus because you were so fat and out of breath from all the eating and smoking.
There is some lodgic to what you are saying when you are young, when you hit 45-50 then its a different story and you worry about those who you will leave behind too early.

My husband could give you one gigantic "YES" answer. His proof that he was not going to die on July 13, 2007, was when he went in for a heart cath. Had a few little chest pains during the night and just wanted to check it out. Doctors immediately saw that he was within mere hours of having a massive heart attack. He had emergency heart surgery and today, he's alive, at work, and doing fine.
What caused his health crisis? The doctors said it was caused by years of smoking, 17 years of drinking (he'd quit in 1993), and eating everything that didn't bite him first (he wasn't overweight).
Your question seems to be somewhat a search for justification for an out of control lifestyle. Don't be stupid, you might not be lucky enough to "dodge the bullet."

well like many ppl said...life is too short...which is why im losing weight so i can spend the rest of my short life looking good and not fat lol...
and on a more serious note..my dad ate alot of junk food and smoked (he wasnt a drinker...he had maybe 1 beer once a month) and died at 43 from a massive heart attack...it wasnt like he was huge, he weighed about 225 lbs. im 26 now and i'd like to live longer than 17 more years!
edit.....

Everything is bad for you. They inject vegetables and fruit with un healthy stuff to gain that nice taste. If you kept eating crap food you can put on weight. Drinking alcohol everyday can cause liver problems and smoking well that develops over life with lung disease and heart problems. But still doesn't mean we die tommrrow by doing these things!!! it develops over the period of time.

That is one way of looking at it but I believe you can die before you day by doing the above if you don't smoke you could live an extra 10 years why dice with death, everything in moderation is okay!

Well smoking and an excess of drinking & crap food will shorten your life - I think that's proven. However, as I do at least two on a regular basis I always tell myself the time comes off the end of your life so less old age.

Yes, my Nan and Grandad were bought up on dripping sandwiches roast pork dinners and full fat cheese. I do think we have gone too far. I see joggers every day looking ill and knackered. My Nan and Aunt were both in their late eighties when they died, my Grandad was seventy five. They all lived sedentary lives. The secret was not exercise and not what they ate. It was the fact that they did it in moderation.
I say moderate exercise and moderate eating is the key to a long life.

there is none, but then the likelihood is that if you smoke, drink and eat crap all your life you will be unhealthy, often ill and unable to do a lot of the things you may want. If you don't but then get hit by a bus at least your death wont have been long, drawnout and painful.
No one can make you be healthy, your choice if you want to be fat, smelly, unfit and ugly
