[Gay For Johnny Depp - What Doesn’t Kill You, Eventually Kills You](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOYe-PFKIj0) (punk rock song; NSFW lyrics if you can understand them) (The song isn’t funny, but the title is and it fits the theme of the thread, kinda, IMO.) ---

My favorite variant is “Whatever doesn’t kill you just postpones the inevitable.” IMO, one of the dumber common aphorisms. Usually if something nearly kills you you end up weaker afterward, not stronger. ---

That which does not kill you gives you a set of unhealthy coping mechanisms and a dark sense of humor. ---

> [@silenus](#): > > That which does not kill you gives you a set of unhealthy coping mechanisms and a dark sense of humor. I opened this just to post that exact same sentence. I always thought the Neitzsche quote showed how shallow he was. “Makes you stronger” might work in a few cases, but so many more times it’ll hurt! And maybe scar you for life. ---

> [@Lucas\_Jackson](#): > > Ok, but I’m still not getting the joke. Does the kid think he’s trump? Just a stereotype, I guess: white male in MAGA cap, posing with semi-automatic rifle and wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the face of a noted Fox News anti-liberal spouter. I thought it was funny. ---
