Who would you?

I was listening to the song Grenade and started thinking about who I would give up my life in order to save. So...who would you give up your life for?

Re: Who would you?

  • Honestly?  I'm not sure anyone.  This may be one of those you have to be a parent things.

  • I would definitely for B. I think before I became a mom I would have done it for more people but now I feel like that would be selfish because I would be robbing B of having me around.
  • I would like to say my husband, but I am a sissy and I don't know if I would if I had to. Maybe once this baybeh comes along I'll feel differently?
  •  Ethan without question and probably Zane but he probably wouldn't let me.

  • my son.  maybe my dad, but since he's 66 (not that that's old) I'm sure he'd rather I live, so I may have to agree.

  • My son.  Though I love my husband, I'm not sure he's more worthy of living than I am.
  • My kid. That's all.  I think about this stuff from time to time, and I value Miles' health/life/well-being more than my own.

  • Whoever invented Girl Scout Cookies.  Well, the one who invented Samoas and/or Thin Mints.  The dude/chick who invented the stupid shortbread cookies or the lemon ones can suck it.  Who the hell wants stupid lemon cookies when they can have chocolate coconut caramel cookies?

    I hate love and marriage. I got married so I could destroy these things from the inside. - NoisyPenguin
    It's a good thing my circle of trust is as giant as my vagina. That only leaves a couple people out. - Cali
  • I'm changing my answer to grooms'.

  • This is depressing to think about. I guess if I had kids, it would be them.

  • is it wrong that I immediately thought of my son and dad, not my H?  He wouldn't want to live without my anyway.

  • Def Liza.  B/c I've at least lived a while and she hasn't gotten much time yet.  Not my H b/c he would honestly be f'ing pissed if I did that.  Anytime we're in a "dangerous" area, he always says, "if something happens, you take Liza and run, and I'll fight 'em off."
  • Apparently Joe would save me if I was being attacked by a bear on land but not if I was in the ocean and there was the chance of sharks being in there. Also if sharks were on land and one was attacking me he would not save me.
  • Mulva, where the hell do you guys hang out, Compton or the 'Cuse?

    This. I also value Ethan and Zane's lives more than my own.

  • Groomz, why you gotta hate on the lemon?  Obviously the Samoas are far superior, but I love the lemon creams too.

  • We've been thinking about this stuff a lot recently because we're in the process of buying life insurance policies (better late than never, right?) and putting together a will to figure out what happens to Miles if both Jason and I cash out.

  • Yeah, at this point, probably no one. I'm a loner.

    We have life insurance, but we need to update the beneficiary info and make a will.  Starting that process fills me with dread.

    The downtown Mobile area, which houses many of the fine eateries in the area, is also really close to a homeless shelter, so we're always weary that the homeless will jack us.  It hasn't happened yet though.  But when it does, we're prepared!!

  • You guys have GGS cookie icecream too don't you? ::evil stare::
  • I should make a business doing all your wills. 

     Hey, guess what?  I've drafted our wills, but we haven't executed them.  And my kid is nearly 2.5.  I'm awesome!

  • Shoot. I keep forgetting to do a will. Hey guys, if I pass, make sure Maggie and Owen get everything, OK?

    I'd lay it down for my kids.

  • Lila, but goddamn it she better write a tearjerker of a eulogy afterwards.

    Us too.  Right now, our nephew will be one rich kid if we die, especially if my husband dies in an accident at work.  We've got to straighten all that out when we get back from the holidays.

    I used to have a long list of people I'd sacrifice myself to save in a heartbeat (it's the emergency responder in me), but now, honestly, I'm not sure I would for anyone except M or my husband.

  • yeah, I think this is something I would have to answer when I'm a mom.  For now, no one comes to mind.

  • damn you groomz now I want some freaking cookies.

    Maybe once the baby arrives but for now...idk.

  • Sean. I'd risk serious bodily injury for Dan but he'd be pissed if I died.

    BTW, Noisy, you make me lol.

    At first I was very confused. Then, I laughed.
