Ex Post Facto

So a few months ago I was denied life insurance twice-- by two different companies.

This morning I was for some reason thinking about it, and a thought came with startling clarity: they think I'm going to die.

It is an object of some small hope that the immediate follow-up thought was: well, fuck them.

You are not going to die. You aren't allowed.

I like your follow up.

I would suggest, though, the alternate interpretation: You are an utter mystery.

Being unable to determine which sized die is being rolled to determine if you are going to die, they can't handle that much uncertainty and run away.

*snort* It's an attractive theory. My old clerical self approves.
