Let's give this guy a little publicity: Swenglishman's explanation as to why that phrase is "bullocks"
You often hear people say, ’live each day as if it was your last’, but what would happen if you actually took this philosophy to heart.
If I thought this would be my last day on Earth I probably wouldn’t bother with anything as mundane as cleaning the house or washing my clothes. There would be no real point in shaving just for one day either. Also, I’m not likely to want to spend what could potentially be my last day alive at work so I can forget about that right away.
I really should do something meaningful with my time. I’ve always wanted to see the Pyramids of Egypt, but of course it would take a day to fly there and if this might be my last living day then I sure as hell don’t want to spend it on a plane. Probably best if I just stay at home.
