became rubber, everything except all life, the atmosphere, food and water became rubber?

bounce. a lot.

Please ensure your brain is donated to science SL, it's important :)

Die. Nothing to breath, nothing to drink, nothing to eat. I'd die pretty quick and so would the rest of you.

Wait. Wait. the majority of words in that question were detailing what DIDN'T turn into rubber. like air, food, water, and vegetation. Why would you suffocate? :P

Stop breathing on principle?

I myself, would wonder what the hell got put into my food.

Everything would become rubber except the atmosphere, food, water and everything that's alive. I dunno how that would make everyone die.

Rush to develop and patent a form of high-speed transportation based on bouncing, sell the patent for a huge amount of cash, and spend the rest of my life relaxing and bouncing real high, attempting to smoke joints in freefall.

Because the ambiguity of your grammar can lead on to believe that the atmosphere, food, and water would all become rubber.

you forgot about the EXCEPT part.

you forgot about the EXCEPT part.

No he didn't; your grammar just sucked.

Rubber isn't generally very soft.... so even though it might provide wonderful spring, it wouldn't be the best landing.

you forgot about the EXCEPT part.

But it appears that except applies only to life.

stand outside a Victoria's Secret shop just to watch all the woman bounce in and out.

OMG the brothel is bouncing 10 feet in the air! :eek: :p

Let's see. Electronics would stop working altogether. So that means the end of NSG. All aircraft will come smashing down. Skyscrapers would hmmm, bend down?

End of the world scenario. Besides, if even the land turns to rubber, nothing's going to grow on it. So I guess the world's condemned to slow starvation.

*Fixed.

And no, not if it's a rubber plant.

If the land turned to rubber so that we couldn't produce crops we'd have to look to the oceans for food, since water and 'all life' is still not rubber. Would the ocean bottoms be as they are still? cause I can see the people of the world very hurridly finding a way to clear a part of the ocean and plant things down there. Can't live on fish and only fish for long. We'd definitely have some problems when it came to technology... we'd be thrown into the stone age, only this time it'd be called the rubber age :D heh.

I'd like to see you eat a rubber plant.

I would look at the rubber lead in my rubber pencil and my head would asplode. :(

Wait, does that mean your family jewels are no longer made of indestructibilium?

you forgot about the EXCEPT part.

And you put the "except" in a place that makes your question mean atmosphere, food and water all became rubber

Indeed. (This reminds me of the footage yesterday on CNN with the reporter squeezing one of the rubber bullets fired at the LA protesters. He said it was really soft. There was only one problem - he was sqeezing it sideways. It's much denser front on, which is how they hit.

Not to mention the OP's specification that the atmosphere, food, and water are also rubber. (And that means no bouncing boobs, brothels, or aircraft, seeing as they're now encase in a layer of rubber several miles thick.)

Actually, the OP's grammar condemns all life except anaerobic bacteria that feed on rubber to near instant death.

Wait, does that mean your family jewels are no longer made of indestructibilium?

My nads will always be made of indestructibilium. :cool:

Do you really think that's advisable? Think about it. 50, maybe 100 years down the line when you're dead and gone, and if your grave has to be relocated, all they'll dig up is your bones and a pair of nads.

Yeah, horrific and swolen. but if they have to dig up his body - will they be surprised? reeeeeeally?

Short rubber.

Quickly turn enough trees, weeds, and other unedible plants into enough mulch to plant more crops in. That takes care of the "nothing grows in rubber" problem, at least for me.

Then start trying to figure out what the frack to do with the massive overabundance of rubber! Hopefully I'd find a way to process some of it into something else.

Find ways to make things out of what's left. Living things can be turned into lots of other stuff...of course, once that's done to them they're not living anymore, but the scenario doesn't say that the rubberization event will recur. So leftover bones, leather, wood, etc. would still be available.

Also I would wonder how long it'd take for some yahoo to burn up the entire planet! Once someone tried to cook something, I could see the rubber-ground itself lighting, and Earth turning into what would amount to the biggest tire-fire in the universe!

Not long I imagine. There's some thousand plus coal power plants out there and who knows how many blast furnaces. If they turned to rubber instantaneously, the heat and flames would set the the whole plant alight and before you know it, big burning rubber cities.

Heck, since much of the planet consists of molten magma, turning it into rubber would probably result in a huge burnoff that would turn the planetary surface into a blazing inferno.

So in other words, we all die in a flash of rubber fed fire.

First question upon finding them would be, "Game of squash, anyone?"

I would be intensely confused, but then I would realize that this is another inexplicable hypothetical situation from South Lizasauria and shrug blandly.

Everything would become rubber except the atmosphere, food, water and everything that's alive. I dunno how that would make everyone die.

It's hard to grow vegetation in rubber, thats how everyone would die

jump.





and then bounce...





a lot...


wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You mean, all clothes become rubber? It's a fetish dream...
