In b4 "die in 6 months."

But seriously, how would you live your life those final 6 months? Would you travel, sit around a sulk, start living a reckless lifestyle?

I would sell the OC and my truck. Between the two I could net enough money to travel pretty comfortably for 6 months. I'd spend my final 6 months traveling with my wife. Just buy a one way ticket somewhere, stay for as long as we wanted, then buy a one way ticket to our next location.

Pure fucking hedonism. Alcohol, drugs, etc. to a level that makes me seem reliable and normal by society's standards today. We're talking "it'd be a miracle if he comes close to six months" live-like-a-suicide levels of debauchery.

I would make sure my affairs were in order.

Also, if I had a child I would do something like jason meadows 18 video tapes. leave them something to keep learning from me.


I would also fuck the shit out of my lady

Probably kill myself (seriously). I could see where people would wanna live it up, but I'd just be too depressed to do anything.

At that point just go with the Heretic plan. At least have some fun on your way out.

If Gibby IRL is like Gibby on the site, I doubt he'd be able to provide enough money for Justin to make it six blocks down the street, let alone carry him for a good part of six months.

But, now that we have Justin's response, I'm now awaiting a thread along the lines of "What would you do if you heard the OC has six months to live...and by six months, I mean it's getting shut down tonight" any time now.

That's a good point. I don't know what the folks at Magic Hat brewery put into their beers, but damn! Total obliteration of the mind.

I am shocked nobody has said they would pray to god, asking him for a miracle or to look after their family after they are gone.

Since I've only really taken two (travel) vacations in my life I'd probably travel.

I would live like I am living now ... would change a thing work hard, go to work, enjoy the little moments with the family and friends, try a few small achievable bucket list things but in general do what I’m doing now. That who I am, that is how I want family and friends to remember me. I love who I am and what I do it is me. I can beat whatever it should be in six months .. faith, hope and the promise is what keeps me alive now.

I don&#8217;t fear my old friend death we understand each other. </SPAN>
