1. Sure, but there will also be people who are indeed happier.

2. I partially disagree with you on this. For instance, if someone is worried about death and/or finances, then if this individual wll survive until we are able to cheaply reverse aging and/or have a cornucopian society with guaranteed basic income of millions of dollars or whatever per year for everyone, then I think that such an individual might be (much) happier in the future.

3. Agreed, though overall, life right now is much better than it was 2,000 years ago, unless perhaps you're Jesus Christ.

Actually, I have a lot of mirth--I simply might not show it that much (at least over here).

If someone wants to share some jokes with me, then please, by all means, PM me!

But think about it, a guaranteed basic income of whatever will buy you no more than you can buy today - it might even buy you less.

It would depend on how much things would cost at that point in time.

If we will have robots doing most of the work and production everywhere, then us humans might be able to automatically gain large amounts of purchasing power (as in having sufficient money to buy a huge amount of things) simply because of the massive productivity and output which robots will provide for us.

However, AFAIK, there doesn't necessarily have to be any direct (skin) contact in the act of mutual masturbation.

That's the one thing my gf can't do.

Apparently, according to one person that wanted to mock me in a anonymouse rep, even A cups can do it, despite the biological improbability of that.

Who care. It's a ridiculous concept.

By the way, the rep wasn't from me. I came right out and asked about it on the boards. It does sound like you aren't willing to be flexible and try things that your partner might want to try. And yes, you don't have to have a pair of big boobs for this.

Yeah, I'm an A cup and I just don't think it would work. I'd do it if I had C's though. lol
