Being Remembered

[dervish]

I was just thinking lots of people worry about how they will be remembered. My thoughts are, well your deid and no longer have the capacity to give a fuck about how you're being remembered. Thoughts?

i don't know that i worried about it. but i've certainly given it consideration.

 

at some point in my 20s, i recollect thinking about it. i used to be a real clean freak. the house was spotless, always. and i do recall thinking that i didn't want my headstone (if i had one) to read "she kept a clean house". so i did give it as much thought as to what i did want to be remembered for if i had a choice, and then chose to live my life in a way that would perhaps lead my friends and family to think of me in those terms.

Aye he cared a lot about it. Hence the massive headstone.

 

Well maybe it's mainly you care what your family think LGIR? Which makes sense, to an extent. With family "the tribe" is part of you I suppose. Still though logically if you're dead why should you care?

 

Suppose if for example your kids could be happier but hate you once you're gone would you do it? Is it just an extension of ego? Die happy knowing you're in the minds of others? Is that the dream?

Doesn't bother me.

 

I'll be dead.

 

Not that I have anything to hide. Other than being a wacky party animal, which I don't hide.

Being remembered like with "oh he was a great guy" or "I have never had such a fantastic lover as Byen", while factual are only part of being remembered.

Your kids, and their kids etc are little bits of you that go forward in time after you have become worm food and for me that is the best way to be remembered.

No biological kids, won't have any, so for me I need to do something spectacular to be remembered.

 

Where's the nearest marathon happening?

They'll find your dungeon basement when you're dead then you'll hit the headlines.

Never given it a second thought, not that bothered to be honest.

I started that so I will live on with you brother.

 

btw Would you rather my face returned to grace the header?

[tup]

I'm not fussed, nobody looks at the mantelpiece when they are poking the fire in any case.

[Crossbow]

Although it's stealing a quote - I want to be remembered for not dying.

It's only people in the public eye who are 'remembered' in a certain way (e.g Maggie T) as the public only see their words, deeds, actions which affect them, so the persona is remembered for what they did or didn't do.

 

Average Joe will only be remembered by family/friends, who generally will have positive/happy memories of them (unless they were a cunt). So basically don't be a cunt in and you won't be remembered as one when you're deid

Mods are dispensible, I'm not.

 

I'm sure you will be keenly aware of what happened to the last moderators to cross swords with me.

Into crossing swords are you?

[tup]

I like arguing, yes.

[Karl Fletcher]

I'll be remembered for being a fine loon and top Dandy imo.

It's good that you have removed Snelders from your posts Karl.

Couldn't bear the thought of you being upset, tup.
