Borrow a car, acquire as much cash from banks as possible, hide it, and slowly start improving my financial status. Get some expensive groceries I rarely indulge in. Grab a bunch of premade sandwiches and stuff, and distribute them to homeless people I see in my journeys. Smaller home decorating items that are a bit luxurious.
I'd definitely be tempted to put some "holes" in the local, Teapublican dominated political establishment. I'd probably be unable to actually do it, since I have morals.
I'm being realistic. I don't know how to fly an airplane, it would take to long to drive to DC or NYC to do significant damage to the national political establishment and banking sector, even if I stole a Lotus and a bunch of caffeine pills.
No time running gasoline would not burn.
@azzow2 , I'm assuming there has to be a field of entropy/time still functioning around me and possibly some close items.
You bunch of virtue signalling liars!
"I'd go to the library and read a book"
"probably run a bubble bath"
Yh right mate.
More likely to purge, perv, rob or do some other unscrupulous act.
You wouldnt just do some normal everyday sh!t
I'd spend half the time plotting where to hide all the sh!t Id take. :]
@Shawappa44820 now THAT sounds genuine!!
Are The Langoliers eating away the fabric of time? Are there ramification from your actions in still time? Will trace evidence be left if you commit larceny on a grand scale?
Let's say there's no repercussions.
@Mea Provide the defense is down send a virus to every missile silo command prompt and disable all the nuclear functions then set a course for every ICM to land in the Marianas trench so when time starts back all warheads would head right to the bottom of the ocean. Set up a 1 time skim program to take 1% of ever millionaire billion asset management (1% is a lot of money for all those think greedy) Have the funds deposited into a Cayman Island offshore account.
Look for the incongruous Police Box, because clearly something broke physics and if I'm the only one moving, I certainly don't want the monsters to find me, first.
Beware the Weeping Angels.
Pray to God, because stopping time for a day is clearly beyond the scope of science.
Which God. Could be the devil or that evil villain in batman with that stopwatch.
Now does time stop just for people? So things like airplanes and cars and clocks still work? Or do things stop too? Coz and f things stop does that mean the whole earth coz that might affect our orbit but if just a bubble of time dilation occurs then a whole sort of other problems happen. These are important questions.
Let's say it's just the people.
I'd probably go to a secluded beach and pamper myself with no tan lines, good music, a good book and some lovely drinks for the day. Just me, the beach, the waves and the sun enjoying some one-on-one time together. Afterwards, watch the sunset, go home and eat a nice meal and take a bath. Just a decompress day all to myself.
Acquire financial stability so I can quit working.
I don’t know if it would be enough time to eliminate the scourge of this country, so I would take care of myself by capturing and hiding large amounts of gold.
I would treat it like a "blizzard" day and work on projects at home.
Harmless pranks. Might undress everyone I could find. Although the tempation to burn all the churches I could reach would be attractive.
I'd do all the cool crimes. I mean why not! They're cool crimes. Especially bank robbery, the coolest crime of all. Or I'd rob a mormon temple and take all their gold.
