The absense of fists up my arsehole I regard as a preferred indifferent. It is something that I pursue as long as it doesn't get in the way of living a virtuous life. Much like health, wealth, education, lower Norwood levels, and so forth.
After all, the idea that the pursuit/avoidance of externals is inconsistent with eudaimonia sounds more Cynic than Stoic.
The ones in accordance with nature can't be avoided, such as the passage of time and my fist up your arse. By trying to avoid the inevitable you are not leading a virtuous or good life, you are leading a foolish life.

Well, what barbarism are we talking of? The Germans coquered Rome after centuries of imperialist agression against them and integrated into that polity. The Romans genocided Celts, Etruscans and Carthago and had virgins raped in the colosseum by baboons for entertainment, or even their own citizens fed to lions when Calligula felt bored.
Barbar is a meaningless term, it's a phonetic stultification of a language Greeks did not understand and never bothered to learn and that's really all there is to that word.
Are you a history student or just a enthusiast?

The passage of time can absolutely be avoided, and in fact can be reversed. That's what this entire forum is about.
Taking finasteride does not correct for the passage of time at all. Let's not even go into how ridiculous, that claim is in the case of hairloss when all the other factors, that even led to that decision still took place: You still have your old face and biological age and all the experiences, that even led to that point. You didn't reverse time, you fooled yourself into the idea you did, by adjusting one minor optical cue. Ridiculous.
But even if you put yourself into a young man's body (which you never will), you will not get rid of the causal chain, that led to this moment, or get rid of all the conclusions, that are dependent on that.

The issue of your fist up my arse is less obvious. But given that you've clearly misrepresented the only other example that you've given (the passage of time), I'm afraid I don't trust you on this one either. Also, most fists exist outside of assholes, so the prior probability of yours being up mine is low. I basically think it's a safe assumption that that one is not unavoidable either, though I concede that it's less obvious than the first example.
Internal, external physical bodies...you still don't understand. We are part of the same structure and nature and thus it was providence or causality, that my fist would end up your ***, since the beginning of time. My fist and your *** were in a constant reciprocity, since the conception of the natural laws, even before both of them existed.
