1. This is such an old man answer
2. This is such an English old man answer
3. Considering what he’s lived through, “avoid dying” is pretty solid advice, and only a little bit tongue-in-cheek.

England’s oldest man is 42 and looking goooood.

I recently leaned a lot of these “oldest people” are not who they say they are, are much younger, and are involved in pension fraud. Especially when birth records from 100+ years ago didn’t necessarily exist.

Kinda ruined all these wholesome stories for me.

Wisdom truly comes with age.

Someone on another forum I’m on shared us two photos- him in the 90s and him today, to show that he has had no hair since high school.

But he also looked exactly the same age.

He told us the secret was to not start aging until you’re ready.
