If the world ended RIGHT NOW, who would you choose to be your Adam/Eve?
OR, who would you choose to be Adam and Eve if you couldn't be one of them yourself?

Definately Gwen Stefani and Sully Erna

Edit: I appeared to have misread the question. Sorry Sully, but looks like I get Gwen to myself :D :D :D

Me and Adam Sandler or Kevin Smith. I think the world would be a kinder, gentler more fucked up place.

No flame intended...

Aren't we in danger of straying into George Bernard Shaw teritory here and his famous quote - "Yes, but what if it had my body and your brains"?

I would choose Bodies Without Organs and a boyfriend/girlfriend for him/her to reboot the human race. BWO is the smartest person I have ever met.

No flame taken...
The reason for this thread was just to see who people would pick, and if you'd like to combine bodies and brains, go ahead! That would make it all the more interesting! :)

Of course, I wouldn't know ... so many factors and I'm so good at complicating things. So, I gotta go with me (I am my biggest fan) and a good woman.

As for defining "good woman", good luck. I don't have a "type". Like any form of art, woman is as woman does.

However, if I have to go with celebs ...

Male: Johnny Depp's body with his own brain, but throw in some of Ed Norton's personality and a touch of John Waters.

Female: Sandra Bullock's body with Tori Amos' talent and Susan Sarandon's wit with a touch of Ricky Lake and a splash of Fran Drescher.

If I've learned anything from the movies, it's that Dr. Strangelove taught me that to properly revitalize the human race, I would require about a dozen females. So I officially draft Natalie Portman, Lucy Liu, Tia Carrere, Catherine Bell, Geri Ryan, Mya, Salma Hayek, Portia Di Rossi (She may be gay, but she's got a womb!), and a few girls I know from college.

Yes, it's unreasonable. No, I don't care.

I'd choose to let the Human race die, and give some other species a chance (like Dolphins!)

Alright, so I would actually choose my boyfriend. =)

Between the two of us, we could probably figure out how to get some things back up and running.

Plus, I already want to contribute to the future of the human race with him. LOL

Me and my Fiance. Sorry and all, but I'm pretty firm in that.
But for the sake of re-population and genetic diversity, I'd prefer to take along a few more girls. Specificly a couple I know from university and other places, and maybe one or two celebraties.
Keep the number small though... and enforce my fiance as the top. >.>

And then... I will truely rule the world! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

A world where Jason Mewes went to rehab is a world that I don't want to live in anymore :(
He saved his life but made me sad. What a selfish man

how about Ann Coulter and Michael Moore? Their kids would not know what to rebel against, and there would be peace throughout the land.

NO!! Without humans the computer will never finish, and the little white mice will never know the proper question.

That being said I'd have to endorse Stroudiztan's idea.

I would reboot Humans with any system running on Windows. It would be a coin toss as to whether or not it would work...and if it did, it would be very, very, agonizingly slow. *Cackles* Take that, Human race!

I think I read in a journal somewhere that for any human population to survive we need a gene pool of at least 50,000 people.

Doubt it. I remember reading somewhere that 500 is the number of individuals at which inbreeding could potentially become a problem. And even then, it's not 'for the population to survive,' it's 'for the population to avoid the danger of deleterious genetic diseases becoming common because of inbreeding.' It would seem that it's still possible for the population to survive for a while, though if it stays that small it'll have problems and maybe die out at some point.

Not sure about all that though.

Which brings me to the point that I'd pick two people with the fewest genetic defects. :P

I so Agree...

Though i would also like to say that if this post was around awhile ago (say 20 years or so) then i would have chosen Julie Andrews....

but as it isn't...

i'd go with the genetics.. or say why bother.

It will end up the same in the end anyway... :mp5: :headbang:

pick somebody who's really unrelated to you
like somebody from the other side of the globe
i reckon there's a lot less chance of something fucking up then

Obviously, the human race would need some genetic variety, so I would have multiple choices; three to start with. My first picks would be Kate Beckinsale, Alicia Keys, and Gwyneth Paltrow, as long as she refrains from naming our offspring after produce.

Knowing I'm no grand specimen of genetics, for the sake of those future folks, I just can't bring myself to include myself.

I'd choose, hmm, Anne Rice and Adam Sandler. It'd be one strange, challenging, disturbing, and fun world with none but their genes walking around.

Well, I and a female friend of mine are pretty clearly the two best candidates if we're taking the whole world into account (as anyone who knows either of us could tell you), but as far as people everyone's heard of... wow, this is tougher than I thought. I'll get back to you.
