I was watching a show for about 10 minutes, and this lady was listing all of these great things to do for fun.
Then I realized that it was one of these religious channels, and she was reading a list of sins.

A woman had a heart attack. She had a vision of God standing by her bedside.
"God, am I going to die?"
"No, you'll live another 30 years. I promise."
She did indeed recover, and decided she might as well make the most of her 30 years. She lost weight, got Botox, had a tummy-tuck, cosmetic surgery, etc. After her final procedure, she crossed the street in front of the clinic, was hit by a car, and died.
"God, what about those 30 years?"
"I didn't recognize you."
