The recent hysteria caused by the possible startup of the Large Hadron Collider by midnight tonight (Note: It's not happening tonight as reported apparently, collision experiments are scheduled for September), which could apparently create a micro black hole or reconstruct all planetary life into "strange" matter, has got me thinking.

Last night, I thought about what I would do with myself if there was a significant chance the world could end at midnight one day, and there were only a select few people, including myself, who knew.

Let's say, you are aware the world has a significant chance of ending by midnight tomorrow by an astronomical catastrophe. The only other people who are aware of it are a few top-ranking scientists. Your family and friends don't know, the public at large doesn't know, not even your national leader knows.

What would you do during that last day if you could, and what would you do in your final hour?

BTW you are also aware that if the event does occur, it is unstoppable.

I'm not quite sure what I'd do exactly for my last day, at the moment there are too many thing's I'd think to do. I know how I'd spend my last hour though.

Playing Sonic 2 multiplayer with my brother on the Megadrive, and then before it might happen I'd, *Ahem*, give him a manly handshake and thank him for being the best brother ever.

Addendum: For anyone having trouble contemplating what you'd do in the final hours, how about you tell us just one thing you'd like to do
at sometime in your life, if you could build up the courage.

P.S No discussion about LHC.

The world already ended millennia ago; we're all dead and this is purgatory. No need to worry.

What would you do during that last day if you could, and what would you do in your final hour?
Last day: Invade some public TV station and remind everyone how much life is worth, and how we should live every day as though it were our last, conveniently forgetting to mention that it actually is. Do a V - spark some really visible fireworks in celebration of being. Announce huge parties in the streets and declare a day free of law and order on the condition that people spend it enjoying themselves.

Then watch everyone have fun for my last hour.

Couldn't think of a better way to go. :D

You give this world too much credit.

So should I cancel the milk and newspapers?

I'd just call in sick to work, and take my bf for a nice trip to the beach or something, then make love until midnight. I'd also make sure to tell my friends and family how much I love them, although I do that often anyway.

I'd spend it with my GF too...

either go to sleep or kill myself (most likely OD on the drugs I'd be pumping into myself)

and not complete strangers? :eek:

stick it in her pooper!

I personally have to get to know people in order to love them, so I'd be lying if I told complete strangers that I loved them. However, free hugs go to everyone. :fluffle:

Obtain a handle of vodka, a box of cigars, and put on Vera Lynn's "We'll Meet Again" and go out Dr. Strangelove style.

I'd tell my family and friends that I love and care about them. Then I'd take the room mate that I'm moving in with, make love to her, and then I'd take care of a few people, mainly smashing their skulls in with a 9 Iron (Eh, I'm already going to Hell...), and then make love to my room mate again until Midnight.

cowering in a bomb shelter with 7 beautiful women?

what the hell is wrong with you? :eek:

seriously it would be hell even if she did sleep with you and even if you died before you ejaculated on her face

What, is my doomsday thread not good enough for you people?

Probably go on a rampage of rape and murder for the last hour. Then, have pie.

Whimsy aside for a second, I think I'd be too overcome with anxiety and the gravity (pun intended) of the situation to actually enjoy myself and I'd probably spend my final moments attempting to shit out my sphincter.

Or else I'd make love to Wilgrove's roommate. Partly for the sex, mostly to annoy Wilgrove.

don't worry its not the end of the world :)

why not save time by raping and murdering the pies? and then eat people so we don't all start thinking your weird

Nah, with my luck I'll be Major T.J. Kong.

Beer.

Considering how my life is finally starting to make the transition from High School Mediocrity to High School Great, the end of the world would be ironically fitting. :p

Anyway, I'd probably show up to school, kiss every girl I've ever been attracted to and then try and convince everyone I know to just ditch school and go do something fun, whether it's bowling or an amusement park or even just a movie.

I'd try heroin and lots of it. :p

engage in as much sin as possible, then repent for it when I've got 5 minutes left...just in case...

Fuck repenting, you can get a lot of sin in those 5 minutes.

I'll kiss every girl I've ever been attracted to. Then I'll go bowling.

Just hope the law doesn't put you in jail for sexual assault before the end.

So, Doomsday is at midnight eh?

I choose to hang out here, and argue about the injustice of timezones.

Beer.

To hell with that. 12 year-old, single malt scotch.

Followed by car bombs, jager bombs, and other such explosive shots.

Timed, of course, so that the puking doesn't start until after my molecules disintegrate.

well, only an hour to go down here...

No sign of death yet, lol...

lol, I bet there would be some people who would stay on here arguing who should be the next president of the US and if there is a God or not.

12:25...I think we're okay.

resteraunt at the end of the universe.
but i think i'll pass on stealing the black space ship.

I don't think we can be friends any more http://209.85.48.8/html/emoticons/unsure.gif



Sure... Rape and murder... but having pie??? where is the justice in that?



As for me, well, I'd probably go out in style... $10,000 suit, really expensive port and cigars, and of course, two stunning ladies.

Just hope the law doesn't put you in jail for sexual assault before the end.

What if the girls enjoy it? (Extremely unlikely)

midnight where?

Not give a shit. Make sure I smoke all my weed. Boink my ex's hot little sister.
