Mingo. You and I go to a bar. We both drink 6 beers in 20 minutes. What happens? Are we both going to experience same results? Why or why not?
Thats not the premise dumbass

You got to a bar and have 6 drinks

The next night you go to a bar and have zero drinks

Measure your heart rate those two nights and report back

Your original post is arguing there are some people who will have no change in the scenario above

Read it again. I never used to words ‘at all’ or ‘no’ or ‘none’ or any other word you or Mingo have unsuccessfully tried to assert. I’ve said we are all different and will experience different and unequal outcomes. That doesn’t mean ‘none’ or ‘no’.

Umm, you said this

You are only as good as your genetic predisposition.
Which is 100% false and the same thing.

Your genetic predisposition only sets your ceiling friend. Whether or not you get there depends on your health choices

No, it isn’t. Again nowhere did I use the words ‘at all’ ‘no’ or ‘none’. You and Mingo said I did though. Why?

Your genetic predisposition matters as far as your metabolic and cardiovascular health goes. Some can do more than others and live longer. That’s all I’ve said. You then said I used absolutes which never happened.

Your numbers mean diddly shite to anyone else here. You seem to be triggered by me pointing that out?

Correct

But, you are “only as good as your genetic predisposition AND YOUR LIFESTYLE CHOICES”

And my Op never once mentions how my results will be the same for everyone. Only that alcohol affects the heart which is a 100% fact. You started an argument with a mouse in your pocket I guess

My only premise is why isn’t it talked about more

You used the word only which is a definitive all or nothing word.

No it’s not. You said that genetic disposition is the only thing that matters. It seems like you are no longer saying that, which is good because your original statement is one of if not the dumbest things I’ve ever read.

He didn’t, which is very unpride like

My friend Michael is dead. We were using the same exact steroids, hGH, and insulin from the same exact brands and sources for the same exact time (years). Why am I alive at 45 and he died at 36? We both made extremely bad choices. How have I outlived him? It sure isn’t because of my choices I can tell you that.

If michael didn’t do steroids and make extremely bad other choices as you say do you think it would have helped michael?

You said I used the words ‘at all’

He said I used the words ‘no’ and ‘none’

I said none of those things. Why did you try and not only lie but twist my words? Genetic predisposition is a gigantic factor in how long one lives even considering lifestyle choices. Does that make you feel better?

So just to be clear, you are no longer arguing it is the only factor?

I never spoke in absolutes nor did I ever use the words ‘at all’ ‘no’ or ‘none’ like you said I did. The biggest factor of mortality is predisposed genes and genetics regardless of lifestyle choices or conditions. I’ve never said someone can’t shorten their life I posted the opposite and even gave several examples.

Then why are you arguing against my original post which just said alcohol effects the heart and never once says it’s the same for everyone and genetics don’t matter?

This sentence means that genetic predisposition is the only thing that matters. Ie, lifestyle choices etc do not matter

That’s exactly what you said

Then why did I give tons of examples to the contrary? Why would I even waste my time? You’ve tried to be a psychic mind reader and assign things I didn’t even say to further your arguments. Someone who would do such isn’t too confident in their own words. We are all different and have unequal outcomes even when factoring/considering lifestyle and health choices.

Because what you said was one of the dumbest things ever written I suppose

Your original statement said lifestyle and health choices didn’t matter

This was the 9th post in this thread. Go troll someone else.

Nowhere have I said abuse can’t ‘worsen’ them. I said the opposite. We all have different tolerances and lifespans due to genetic predisposition. You might smoke 6 packs a day and live to 50. I might smoke 6 packs a day and live to 70. We both ‘shortened’ our lifespan but my organs were simply better than yours so I lasted longer. That’s all I have said and it’s a fact.

Yeah, you’re waffling back and forth while continuing to defend your original statement. We’re in total agreement that makes no sense

And that's your answer to the question posed in the OP? Take the loss and move on.

This thread has been a joy.

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.
