       I see alot of "goths" finding true love.

       "What does it mean, sometime last year? I want my money back."   

       If you survive past your death date, that generally spurs lots of positive interest from other people in the same boat and you can find a date if your partner subsequently croaks. At some point, you're gonna die almost exactly the same time with someone, or die before them. It's a virtual win-win, as nobody ever dies alone.

       How good are insurance companies anyway at predicting one's time of death?

       They don't go broke often. Do they?

       This would never work because it would invariably hook up men with women who are 5 years older than them.   

       My experience with women is that very few of them are prepared to date a man more than 2 years younger than them. And most men prefer younger women too.

       To prove you are not always right, my s/o is eleven years younger than me.

       My partner of fourteen years is ten years my senior. My first partner was seven years my senior. My brother's partner is twenty-two years older than he is. His first wife was seven years older than him. It's not that unusual or undesirable.

       "Hi, would you go out with me? Yeah, tonight. Sure, bring your cigarettes."   

       "Yeah, it's got to be tonight. No, seriously."

       Ooh, I knew someone would comment on the age difference bit. My wife and I have 10 years between us. We met on her thirtieth birthday, and I was still three months shy of 20.   

       We've been together 20 years now.

       This would make a good tie-in with a betting site. Or not.

       Ah, I could finally get a girl. Ah well. Try the death clock. [link]
