"As tempting as it must be to have the chance to yell at someone who looks just like you, I think maybe adopting a kid is the best way to proceed here. Or, getting an animal of some sort. Or, perhaps, being content to continue fucking women decades younger than you until such time as Pluto calls to you from his murky depths..."
Wait- why would it be okay to adopt a kid here? Because adopted kids don't have any feelings about their adopted families and the loss of their father won't matter? Or is it because adopted kids will already be fucked up anyway so you may as well throw them to the bimbos and the crusty old men like a consolation prize? "Adopt! OR maybe get a pet!" What?!
As for my real opinion, who are we to try to create or enforce a zombie hoard of perfectly adjusted little angels? I'd love to see "the girls" with a sullen, flat-chested bitter 11 year old on their hands in a decade or so.

Obviously the not about to die should always get priority, over the soon departed. Many kids never get adopted and five years with some old guy who will leave them a ton of cash is probably better than bouncing around foster homes until they turn 18 and are cut loose...
This doesn't add to the far too many people already running around and it helps some 8 year-old kid who was sorta fucked anyway.

I'drather be a kid who never knew his father than one who was never born at all.
That doesn't even make any sense. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have much of an opinion if you had never been born.

I thought he had three girlfriends. That's one more parent plus one more dead parent than I had..
Yup. At worst he's leaving behind a kid with a decent amount of family and a load of cash. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. Lots of worse shit than having a dead parent.
Fuck it , I'd be ok with my dad passing before I got to know him if he was Hugh fucking Hefner. Though it would be nice if he was around long enough to impart some of that Hefner wisdom.
