This makes a lot of sense if you think about it. However, if you did just think about it, you've shortened your lifespan by a month. Well done.

It doesn't pay to be smart and ignorance really is bliss if you want a long life -- at least if you're a fly, according to new research by a Swiss university.

Those longer lives were clearly unfulfilled. Clearly. Those dumb flies don't know how good they have it. If they did, they'd be dead. And then they wouldn't have had it to know how good it was. I think I just lost a month.
