I turned 86 today.
In 1925, I was a baby.
I was born the same day as Yuli Daniel.
It doesn't feel like a long time to me...
In 1927, Metropolis premiered in Germany while I was a toddler.

Not tl;dr. That was actually pretty awesome.

:)

that is to damn long! im not reading it!

omg, this is really good!

Would Read Again 7/10. It's nice hearing from someone who's old enough to have seen Jack Dempsey fight, in person.

That was really cool

when will the movie come out?

cools story bro

This was cool to read. After a life like that, he deserve the best he can get, and I'm glad he and his family got it. A lot of us will probably never be as lucky enough now though...

nah. we are luckier now than he ever was. even with a "poverty line" income we have access to technological wonders that this guy could only dream of as a kid. we are living in the future mah f✡✞ka

I'm 67 and I can relate. Think of the 100's of millions who lived during this same time. I really like the line, "I've seen it all happen over and over again."

At first I thought "Wow, this is too long." Then I read the whole thing and was actually sad that it ended so soon. That is an amazing life to have lived, and I hope that one day someone can say the same of my experiences.

too long? No. Inspiring? F*ck yes. Pardon the language, there. Try to be as polite on the Internet as real life, people!

Do you all realize that this can be just made up?

Do you realise it's the message and moral of the story not that it actually happened. You must be 12.

people like it cuz they wanna believe they won't be forever alone. that's obviously not the truth. most of us will suffer of loneliness for the bigger part of our lifetime.

MIND = BLOWN. Thanks for sharing this, dude. <3

TL;DR

thanks for the novel

Awesome story... I loved it. Thanks for sharing, brother. And don't worry none, about these new wars. Guys like me are trying to carry the torch for you. :)

dude, this guy is awesome. i want to be just like him.

too long and it sucks too much

Respect... Thanks Sir for sharing this story. - Nix.

Tl:dr

Very inspiring. It's interesting how something as small as a comic could have such a profound effect. Having read this may have changed my life. I'm not sure, but we'll see :)

Bravo.

piece of bullshit.
