If I had 24 hours to live, I'd probably spend it sedated in the ICU.

I like the family and friends thing. But probably want to spend my final hours outside by myself.

I am a little concerned abt how many of you would go on a killing spree. Are you angry with everyone because you are dying or just angry with everyone?

I would indelibly imprint on my brain every single special person, and every generous act that had ever been extended me. I would make a videotape farewell for my son, so that when he reached the age of full reason, he could better understand what I had to say. I would walk and talk with my wife, and finally I would drift off to sleep in her arms, while dreaming of the happiness that I was granted in this life.

I'd sell everything I owned, buy a truckload of various drugs and have a sedated 24 hours...eh, I'm a wuss; if I knew I was dying I would need the drugs to pass the time...

I can't honestly answer this question, becuase I don't know what my actual response would be, seeing as how I've never been in this kind of situation. I know that I probably wouldn't tell anyone that I was going to die within 24 hours though. I would hopefully have the balls to say everything that I've wanted to say to poeple. But other than that I don't know what I would actually do.

I would go over to the house of a girl that was in my class a few months ago and tell her how I have felt about her since the day I met her.

I looked at all the (positive) responses... Do things you always wanted to do like skydiving, hang-gliding, scuba, telling your loved ones how you feel, spending time with your favourite people at your favourite places...

My own philosophy is that TODAY may be my last.

Carpe Diem.

Well as many have said, I do not have an answer for this..I guess I would first have to say I dont think I would let anyone know. I think that would just make it all so much harder on everyone. I would also make sure all my things are in order as far as insurances and stuff so that my sons can go on with what I have for them with out any kind of turmoil...then I would try and just live a normal day but be as close to as many of the people that I care about as I can. But I think if family and friends knew you were dying everybody would just be different than they normally would be. When I see a question like this it reminds me of an older movie called D.O.A With dennis Quaid & Meg Ryan its about a guy that is poisoned and has 24 hours to live and spends it trying to find out who killed him..


Besides if I did anything crazy I would be cured and then have to face charges for all the crazy shit I DID...

I guess it depends on how I'm going to die. If I know its going to be a violent or painful death I would probably decide to end it early. If I knew it was gonna be an easy death, then I would max out my credit cards, buy mad junk, try to get as much ass as I could (even if I had to pay for it), and finally I go on all the park rides I've been scared of going on.

I would make sure all the people close to me had said everything they need to say to me, and I'd be sure I said everything to them, and make sure they know I love them and that I know they love me. (Whoa, that's convoluted. Basically, make sure there's nothing but love between me and my loved ones when I go.)

Then I'd have sex with ratbastid till we couldn't fuck any more. Then I'd eat a lot of chocolate and talk with ratbastid till the end came.

ammend any loose family issues

But I honestly don't know. I like the sex idea.

What a way to go.

And the best part is that's only 20 hours long, so you'd have 4 hours left to spare.

To do.. hmm.. I guess you could watch straight commercials to make up for the ones you missed for the show. Watching commercials would be a really twisted way to go out.

Have you seen the movie 'Scent of a woman'? I think I would do pretty much similar things as Al Pacino's character did before he wanted to commit suicide.

Talk to my friends and family, preferably over an exquisite dinner. Do something i've never done before and just enjoy the last day.

"I tell you what I'd do... two chicks at the same time, man."

"Twins, Basil. Twins."

Like some other people who answered on this thread, I'd have lots of sex to reaffirm THAT part of my lust for life, then hijack a live broadcast somewhere to state a piece of my mind before leaving. If no live broadcast is available, then just a "man-on-the-street"-type video would do. I'd ask anyone on camera what they would do if they had only 24 hours left to live, then tell them not to wait for that moment to happen, 'cuz it's not what it's cracked up to be.

Then, I'd probably panic, then have a steak, calm down and realise that it's all gonna be alright, then tell my parents that I can't believe how fortunate I was to have been raised by them and hope that this life was good enough to deserve ones that are even 1/10th as generous and loving in the next life, whatever that's like, then go to my best friend's grave with some Dr. Pepper and CDs and wait for the end.

Basically, I wouldn't do anything that might have serious repercussions I'd have to deal with if that 24-hour deadline shit was just a joke/test/fluke of some kind. That's right, even in the face of death, I'd play it safe, for whatever it's worth and ask someone to make me laugh right before the end.

As Hermann Hesse once wrote: "Eternity lasts but a moment, just long enough for a joke."
