    77 years old is the life expectancy of a male in the United States. You made it through an entire life when you werent supposed to. This brings happy tears to my eyes.

      In Canada the average life expectancy for a male is 84 years. The average life expectancy for an American male is 78 years. How is it that a Canadian male lives longer then an American male? 🤔🤔🤔🤔

      @@LiberateAlberta1907 Apparently Healthcare may play a part. I have a theory of my own. Since Canadians apologize at the drop of a hat that action in itself may cause a calmer temperament which in turn may extend life if but by a few years.
      With all of that as a backdrop it makes one wonder why it is so many Canadians want to move to America. hmm 🤔

    I have autism and I know it’s off topic but it annoys me to the edge of the world when people say ‘oh I have anxiety so I might have autism but just haven’t been tested’ 1 autism is way more than just that and they act like it’s a super power 2 you don’t even have anxiety 9/10 times
