"TOP 5 THINGS ROB AND ARNIE WOULD DO IF THEY EACH HAD 72 HOURS LEFT TO LIVE"
Overview: It's the age old question; if suddenly faced with your own mortality how would you spend your last days on Earth? Would you lie, cheat steal and pillage? Would you repent all of your sins in the hopes it would lead to eternal salvation?
Criteria: We put no restrictions on the list in the interest of honesty. Most people will say things like "hug my son," and "apologize to my dad for that time I punched him," but those people are lying. If the things we'd do are illegal or immoral, let's list them…as long as they're honest.
Rob's Notes: I have never really understood this hypothetical question because with rare minor differences in my behavior, I live every day as though it may be my last. Life can end in the blink of an eye so I see no reason to "hold back," day to day which is why I spend the money I make rather than stuff it in a mattress. I approached this topic by figuring out what I would need or desire to do if the consequences didn't matter (because after all, I I'm going to die in 72 hours, what punishment is possibly worse than that?)
Arnie's Notes: Look here, if I'm fixin' to die I'm gonna be mean. Yes, marrying someone who doesn't know my situation is terrible and messed up and mean but I'm dying I don't care. And really how cool would it be to take someones life with your bare hands and not ever really have to pay the price for doing so.
