        For any wondering, no, that’s not a coincidence. He is Marine Le Pen’s father.

          I don’t agree with the idea of punishing people for their parent’s crimes, they may turn out alright in spite of their relationship to their parents. That has no bearing on Marine, tho. Hope France does everything in their power to keep her away from anything that counts as influence, tho.

        Roman Polankski is 91 and still kicking.

        I feel like the universe’s Karma Police needs new recruitment or leadership or something.

        People who do shit like that, evade justice then live that long shouldn’t be allowed to happen. The way light can’t escape a black hole, degenerate and violent people shouldn’t be able to escape justice.

        True, and Betty White to 99, just a couple weeks plus change from her 100th.

        They’re very much the EXCEPTION rather than the rule, though…

        “Only the good die young” logically implies that good people can live a long time, but bad people will never die young. A counterexample would be someone who was an absolute shitbag and also died young.

          Statistically speaking some of those kids with cancer have to be assholes, right? Some of those assholes might turn out bad, if they lived.

          I guess one could argue they weren’t completely bad when they died since they were kids.
