I think you could've worded that better, but even then, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense, since you don't exist before you're born, so "negative lifespan" is a weird thing to say.
But fun fact, genetically female babies develop all their egg cells while still inside the womb, so at some point the egg cell that became you was inside your grandma.
is that some sort of twisted your momma joke?
That or a convoluted “Yo dawg, we heard you like eggs”
You do exist, but your existence is different. Your individuality doesn't exist. You are potential individuality.
Now that's just maddening the unhelpful.
You are the continuation of other cellular organisms' lives.
