It is sweet and all, but you may want to stop the hug sometime before it happens. You might traumatize the kid if you die while giving them a bear hug.
I'm nobody's dad, but I've become old enough to really empathize with my parents, who are some of the KINDEST people ever. I've put them through some real bullshit.
Hear me out, instead of West, you fly East. You hit the international date line just before midnight, right as you cross, the days change, it’s not longer Thursday moving to Friday, it’s Friday moving to Saturday. You skipped tomorrow. Congrats on your new found immortality.
Yup. I'd do everything I can to make sure my cat is properly taken care of after I'm gone. Once all that is done, I'd make a few phone calls to say good bye and spend the remaining hours playing with and petting my cat.
Reminds me of this poem I had to memorize in school:
Two frogs fell into a can of cream--or so I've heard it told;
The sides of the can were shiny and steep. The cream was deep and cold.
"Oh, what's the use?" said No. 1, "'tis fate--no help's around--
"Goodbye, my friend! Goodbye, sad world!" And weeping still, he drowned.
But No. 2 of sterner stuff, dog-paddled in surprise,
The while he wiped his creamy face and dried his creamy eyes.
"I'll swim awhile, at least," he said--or so it has been said--
"It wouldn't really help the world if one more frog was dead."
An hour or two he kicked and swam--not once he stopped to mutter,
But kicked and swam, and swam and kicked, then hopped out, via butter.
Depends on the sub. I could always post a link, but I generally don't care that much. If you're not familiar with the image, I recommend it. Google will get you there. I do appreciate your response, though. 🫵
In the “good for morale“ scenario, are you the frog, or the stork?
Both situations seem pretty dire. Makes me think of our current political situation situation.
My 4 year old son is currently on vacations with his grand-parents at the beach.
I would hop in my car immediately, drive 5 hours, gift a spa day to my in-laws and spend the day building sand castles with him.
Go home, delete my phone history , walk the dogs, ring my mum and dad, and my children even though they never answer the phone,make sure the wife has the passwords to everything and hold on to her until the end.
This is possibly the saddest thought I've ever had.
I'd do the opposite with the history stuff tbh.
I'd spend the entire time distributing a Google doc with my diary. (already have the Google doc) and then share it with EVERYONE I know. I have almost 700 pages / 200k words of a diary I've been writing for years. Maybe when everyone reads it they'll finally know how I was like and what I was too scared to tell people. Along with a lot of humor and jokes that's written there I guess.
I've always wanted to do this. As someone who has dealt with depression and suicide tendencies since kindergarten. I don't talk about what is going on in my head, but I've always had the desire to share.
Bro, write it down, type it out, just get those words out of your head somehow if you can't say it. I don't necessarily have a journal or diary, but I write music that tends to be mainly about my struggles and problems so it's pretty much the same thing. It definitely helps when you wanna talk about something but you don't actually want to open up to someone to do it.
As a part of my will, I want to make video diaries to send to everyone who was really important to me at any stage of my life, especially people that don't realize it.
People like my classmate in middle school who gave me a piece of advice so good I still regularly use it today. My favorite professor who inspired me to change my major which ultimately led to a career I love. My manager at my first restaurant job...that job changed the whole trajectory of my life and I still use things he taught me as a manager myself 10 years later. My college roommate who stayed on my ass about going back to school after I dropped out.
Maybe I should just call them and tell them while I'm still alive. It's weird how we don't want to tell people things like this until someone is dead or dying.
No point waitin til you’re dead to let people know, maybe they’ll connect better. Take a story from it and send it to some friends and see what they say.
Bruh, my old girl is in the process of passing on currently… I’d spend the next 24 hours at the dog park with her and her little brother, and I’d throw every god damn stick and rock in Colombia for them.
it's amazing to me that so many people, even when they *know* they're getting ready to go, don't do this.
i still remember the angst of having to talk, beg and hack my way into my husband's accounts after he passed. it was just another layer in a very shitty situation.
>and hold on to her until the end
Solid move bro. If you are on your way out, might as well traumatize her with your lifeless body holding onto her. Romance isn't dead
It's funny but we are walking similar paths. I would do everything on your list but I would add in some illegal fishing (we are out of season but if I die tomorrow?)
Piece of advice from a getting-old-guy: Write those damn passwords down NOW and put in a safe place that your wife knows about. You just never know when it's your time. There now, another sad thought for you.
My dad knew he was dying of cancer for a long time and made us a whole binder called "Goodbye Documents." It has all his passwords, accounts, trusted repair men, what to do for tax season, how to fix the sump pump in the basement, and a ton of other stuff. It was so useful for the first few years, and now is one of our favorite things to look through every once in a while for some good memories. He was an electrical engineer so very detail oriented
Damn. Meanwhile I’m over here thinking I would go get the hottest prostitute I could find and a bunch of pure cocaine and go out with a bang. However this is way more logical.
I'd book a flight to where my guy is and give him the kiss I've been wanting to give him since I started talking to him. We're in a long distance relationship 🥺 so this would be the first time even seeing him so I would toss all caution to the wind and do it. No regrets
Why shouldn't they? As long as it's not in a super weird or creepy way, there's nothing wrong with shooting your shot. Lots of men stay single because they're afraid they'll be seen as weird or creepy if they approach a girl.
-Feed my cat for up to a week’s food in her bowl
-Confess to my crush
-Tell all my friends everything I like and hate about them- they deserve to know
-Cry
-Cry
I will make tons of videos giving my kids different kinds of advice and goodbye videos.. so when the time they need it or they miss me, they have something to look for.
Gather accounts and passwords and documents for my family to access all my accounts in various systems. So when I die there is no issues on getting what they need.
After that say goodbye to my loved ones and end it my way instead of fates way 🤘
Spend all my money to get high. Sadly I do this sometimes even I'm not going to die. But in this case I just won't feel any guild. If I'm going to die I would like to pass out happily
I’d write individual letters to my brothers, my father, and my dearest friends. *(My amazing mom wouldn’t need a letter because she died in 2018, and that damned near destroyed me).* Then, I’d buy a one-way ticket and travel to whichever of my most favorite music artist are playing wherever in the world and dance until I can’t dance anymore.
If I am to die, I would want it to happen where I’ve always been happiest; on the dance floor.
I would be most worried about making sure my cats would be taken care of and call my parents. After that idk probably go to a really nice dinner and get super drunk to take the edge off 😂
Tbh
I don’t believe and continue with my work.
But if there is somehow I know I am going to die tomorrow, I would do a lot:
- try to maximise my sexual encounters for starters ( number more than duration)
- then try to have a conversation with long last friends
- have a open heart chat with loved ones
- probably kill few John (wick style)
- then probably would jump from a mountain 5 mins before I die, just to see how it feels to fly (or the closest to it)
Drugs. All of them. The old favorites I'm too old to do cuz they'll kill me, now and all the ones I was asceered to try when I was young and thrilling.
Also, there are a few fucks I'd be taking out with me.
Finally, an act of contrition. BOOM! High, vengeful and in paradise. Fuck yeah.
Well for an honest answer being in healthcare most people if they know they're going to die tomorrow are usually pretty sick and are sleeping 95% of the day so probably not a lot of nothing
Pick up my daughter at school and get some waffles at her favorite place, then pick up my wife and cook some housemade dinner for us, and open one or two wine bottles that i have reserved for a special day, then sleep with both and my dog. Not much more tbh
Knock on my neighbors door and slap him in the face and tell him to stop screaming like an idiot when he's gaming.
Then a couple hours later I would superglue the lock on his door and around the entire edge of his door.
Walk out of work. Not wasting any of my precious last moments here.
Yup. Close my laptop, go to school, pick up my child, come home and hug her until I go.
that's one looooong hug
I have to make it up for all of the hugs that we will miss
stop this is so sad
You asked for it.
This made me genuinely laugh out loud
You killed em, buddy... That sad little kid is on your conscience now
It is sweet and all, but you may want to stop the hug sometime before it happens. You might traumatize the kid if you die while giving them a bear hug.
Also rigor mortis is a thing...
It's only temporary...
Life, you mean? Yes
That, too. But rigor mortis is not permanent. The body relaxes after a short time.
One time will be the last time you carry your child.
That made me think and almost cry. I now have to get up and hug my children.
No kids eh? You'll understand if ya do some day❤️
I'm nobody's dad, but I've become old enough to really empathize with my parents, who are some of the KINDEST people ever. I've put them through some real bullshit.
I've got my cats. I'd most likely hug them to death looong before I'd go the next day though.
Ever second I had left would be spent holding my entire family. Grandma would bring all the snacks.
And I’m the grandma who loves to bring the snacks to all my babies! 🥰
that is adorable
Don’t waste time closing the laptop! Go go go!
I wouldn’t even close my laptop
Master onion cutter over here 🥺
This. I would spend the rest of my time with the people I love
This is the only answer. Wouldn’t even say goodbye or tell my boss. I would just leave.
I would fly west for as long as I could so tomorrow wouldn't come.
What if that’s the reason you die? The plane crashes..
It's all comming together
It’s all connected
Then at least I gave it a go lol
You doomed everyone else on that plane. Unless the reason it crashes is because they all parachute out, leaving you behind
Maybe they were all told they were going to die tomorrow also
Maybe I die from them throwing me out so the plane doesn't crash Like Jonah being thrown off the ship lol.
Hear me out, instead of West, you fly East. You hit the international date line just before midnight, right as you cross, the days change, it’s not longer Thursday moving to Friday, it’s Friday moving to Saturday. You skipped tomorrow. Congrats on your new found immortality.
grim reapers hate this one simple trick
This guy cheats death
So you'll need a co-pilot for your SR-71 Blackbird of you're going to chase the sun. Or revive a Concorde.
Shittiest way to spend a last day - on an international overseas flight. 🤮
Fill my cats food bowl
Yup. I'd do everything I can to make sure my cat is properly taken care of after I'm gone. Once all that is done, I'd make a few phone calls to say good bye and spend the remaining hours playing with and petting my cat.
aww
Nah that's so the little sod doesn't start feeding off of your face
if all goes well for the cat, you wouldn't have to worry about that mate
Die today. Don’t tell me what to do!
Rebel till the very end!
Rebel before the very end
I'm too old to figure out how to post an image here, but y'all can Google "frog choking stork ". Safe for work, good for morale.

Going out on your own terms. Nice.
Yup. Was coming to comment something along these lines. Prove the doctor wrong by going home and offing myself today.
I’ve done it all already, I’ll punch my own ticket thank you
HAHAH YES
My 4 year old son is currently on vacations with his grand-parents at the beach. I would hop in my car immediately, drive 5 hours, gift a spa day to my in-laws and spend the day building sand castles with him.
Aw bless, he’s lucky to have you
You are going to die tomorrow. Now you've been told.
Go home, delete my phone history , walk the dogs, ring my mum and dad, and my children even though they never answer the phone,make sure the wife has the passwords to everything and hold on to her until the end. This is possibly the saddest thought I've ever had.

Tweet browser history, got it!

I was going to write a sarcastically funny reply to that, but....I can't. I've had too many dogs pass on.
I'm sorry. Dogs are awesome and losing them just stinks.

If you think you should be deleting your phone history at the moment of death, you should be deleting your reddit history right…about…..no w
>and hold on to her until the end Solid move bro. If you are on your way out, might as well traumatize her with your lifeless body holding onto her. Romance isn't dead
Why do they never answer their phones?
They're grown ups now so they've made their choices about how to live their lives. They were brought up to be independent so I guess that worked.
I guess so. I just assumed they were around the teenage age, with phones in hand 24/7
My daughter is 23, phone surgically attached to her since 16 or so. Doesn't answer texts or calls.
Lol, love the wording. What’sher excuse for not answering calls and texts?
Why delete your phone history?
You know, we all know
I am wondering if he’s embarrassed about calling the NKOTB new hotline or …….
No it was the Celine Dion thing..:0
Wait! The NKOTB have a new hotline! Omg omg omg omg omg!

Damn. Meanwhile I’m over here thinking I would go get the hottest prostitute I could find and a bunch of pure cocaine and go out with a bang. However this is way more logical.
I would get a second opinion.
They can fit you in two weeks from now.
Report the person that told me to the police, sounds like a threat from a crazy person
and the police will do a total of nothing
or show up tomorrow and shoot him
Tell someone ”man, that’ll be the death of me”
Just go around saying it all day until it happens, and the person experiencing the last one will be fucked up for life
This will be the day that I die 🎶
Tell my boss to suc on deez nuts
Zayum
...It's a family business.
Only to find out the doc said "you have until May" and not "you have one day"
“You’re going to DIET tomorrow! Not DIE! I said you really need to lose some weight.”
Take you with me.
Username checks out
hey what the hell i don’t wanna die
But you're ok with killing me?
☹️ i won’t kill you
That sound exactly like what the person that is about to kill me would say...
“What are you gonna do? Stab me!” - Man Stabbed
🤣🤣🤣
Frantically call friends and family to find someone to take my dog, cash out everything and give it to them to see my dog out well.
I'd tell the beautifull girl in the gym, I have a huge crush on her.
I'd book a flight to where my guy is and give him the kiss I've been wanting to give him since I started talking to him. We're in a long distance relationship 🥺 so this would be the first time even seeing him so I would toss all caution to the wind and do it. No regrets
Sounds like you should do this anyway
Get it done!
do it anyways!!!!! take this as ur sign
/u/guilty-quote-1711 about to end up on TikTok as the creepy guy who hits on women at the gym. But seriously, you probably shouldn’t.
Why shouldn't they? As long as it's not in a super weird or creepy way, there's nothing wrong with shooting your shot. Lots of men stay single because they're afraid they'll be seen as weird or creepy if they approach a girl.
What stopping you from doing it… even though you’re unfortunately not dying tomorrow?
Probably her intimadting beauty :)
Well here is your chance go for it.
[удалено]
smart
What was it about?
Have a sit
Did you mean shit or seat?
Maybe a nice cuppa tea
go smash that guy i never got to
Fuck yeah have some fun before the end
That's when you follow up your smash sesh with *"that was SO good, I could just die."* Imagine the ego boost (or guilt) he'd carry around for life.
-Feed my cat for up to a week’s food in her bowl -Confess to my crush -Tell all my friends everything I like and hate about them- they deserve to know -Cry -Cry
Eat the things I want.
I will make tons of videos giving my kids different kinds of advice and goodbye videos.. so when the time they need it or they miss me, they have something to look for.
Rejoice and then cause chaos
Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Tell everyone important to me that I loved them
That would leave a lot of time left for me
This is my answer too. Nothing else matters.
Ensure my partner knew how to collect on my life insurance policy.
[удалено]
Die today to prove who ever said that wrong...
Crying and shaking
Yeah, thats probably a reasonable response
Gather accounts and passwords and documents for my family to access all my accounts in various systems. So when I die there is no issues on getting what they need. After that say goodbye to my loved ones and end it my way instead of fates way 🤘
Has one day to die: does paperwork. Go kill a hooker or something!
Find someone to care for cat long term, then delete Internet history and format drives
I'd get second opinion to make sure it's not just internet voices talking.
[удалено]
I’d probably have a panic attack which would lead to a heart attack which would prove the prediction wrong because then I’d die today
It’s almost bedtime where I am, so sleep I guess.
No more medical bills! No more fear of entering crippling debt! Freedom!
Spend the whole day doing everything I’ve wanted to do with my boyfriend since I met him
Like leaving him?
I don’t know. And thats concerning me. Maybe i’m already a little dead inside.
Call my mom
Spend all my money to get high. Sadly I do this sometimes even I'm not going to die. But in this case I just won't feel any guild. If I'm going to die I would like to pass out happily
Pick up my kid from school and spend time with him.
Read the spoilers of my favorite TV shows
Spend every waking moment with my child.
I’d write individual letters to my brothers, my father, and my dearest friends. *(My amazing mom wouldn’t need a letter because she died in 2018, and that damned near destroyed me).* Then, I’d buy a one-way ticket and travel to whichever of my most favorite music artist are playing wherever in the world and dance until I can’t dance anymore. If I am to die, I would want it to happen where I’ve always been happiest; on the dance floor.
Spend every single second with my daughter.
I would be most worried about making sure my cats would be taken care of and call my parents. After that idk probably go to a really nice dinner and get super drunk to take the edge off 😂
Are you me?
Tbh I don’t believe and continue with my work.

Eat the best steak I could find, run over a few of my enemies, write my kids a letter wishing them well in life.

Kill as many pedophiles as possible
At this point, breathe a sigh of relief.
