Yes, but not lately. This has been asked about 1000000000 times over the last few years

It was done in a "Would you want a cigarette if you only had five minutes left to live" thread last week or so.

Personally I'd hold onto my son and never let go.

If I didn't have a child I'd load the Glock 40 and have a grand ol time.

Yes, it was inspired by that thread; however, that was a specific question. This is a broad question.

BTW: MisterJackson, are you at work? If so, why do you take your gun to work?



ha ha, yeah, I'm at work, but you didn't specify where we'd be when we found this out. The gun stays locked in the glovebox btw. State law here until I get a concealed weapons permit ;)

Shoot myself in the head. Whatever's killing me in 5 minutes won't get the satisfaction.

I thought most people have decided in the previous reposts that they'd call their loved ones and then wait.

**EDIT**
Write a 'WILL' very quickly with a few witnesses. Maybe say goodbye to a few people or do a mass email to all my friends..

Lay down restfully and go to sleep. 5 minutes isn't much time to do anything else with dignity.

Hey there is one of those in my lot too.


Anyway, I'd max out the car doing about 150ish around the loop once or twice and then right before I was supposed to die I'd aim for the nearest bridge support.

The irony is, this will happen to all of us someday, except we might not get the 5 minutes to think about it.

oh god that book is so bad.

:confused:
Naked jumping jacks?

For some reason pclstyle hate The Da Vinci Code and have been chiming in that he hates the book any chance he gets. My guess is he is a fundie.

chiming in as in once here, once in the da vinci code movie thread? piss-poor author and a weak-ass movie, it's asking for it. the story has a workable plot, but man- it could have been done so much better. well, if that makes me a fundie, then game on.


but you see me bashing at the white house, the vatican and everything in between with the best of them, so lol, why am i even defending myself?


maybe i'm just hateful :( misanthropy ftw
