The voluntary interruption of old age. (warning - naughty word!)

Here's my rough and ready translation :

Thanks to the voluntary interruption of pregnancy (i.e. abortion) the modern woman can henceforth hold her head high and her tummy flat. But a further new step in the humanisation of medicine can be taken. I won't talk further about IVG but IVV, the voluntary interruption of old age.

Observe this septuagenarian of seventy years of age.

"I am bored stiff." (that's the naughty word ! Beware of most words that contain m e r d !)

What does he have left in life ?

"Nothing at all."

Is it not our duty to practice IVV on him in order to shorten his boredom ? Yes of course. On the one condition that he himself give his assent.

So, sir, do you consent that we practice on you the voluntary interruption of old age ?

"Ah no !"

Hold this for me for a second.... Thank-you.... Bop. "Aahhhh !"

Anyway, at that age they no longer know what they are saying.

"Stunning, no ?"

This was a comedy sketch. This was a British baroness's serious suggestion.

You have to watch out for the naughty words.

What is your heart language ? Is it English or another language ?
