If the world was in an endgame type of situation - massive nuclear war, major asteroid, whatever, would you want to know ahead of time, or would you simply accept death as it happened?


Food for thought this morning. ;)

I would want to know so I could make my peace with the God of Goats. Wouldn't want to go with all those self righteous Rapture types anyway! ;) ;) ;)

Endgame.. why not just say End of the World situation? Do we live in Mario world?

Life's a game, we're all players.
There's just no saves, loads, or continues. ;)

Remember that time at band camp when I paid you dance around naked with a coke bottle shoved up the rear.. good times.

No - Other.

I'd rather be happily surprised that I wouldn't have to read stupid shit like this anymore.

I'd seek you out first and completely obliterate any traces of your existance that way I can die happy.

I have a list of random people I will take out to make the world a better place.

The list is ever evolving, so right now Ben Afleck is Numero Uno.

Isn't Endgame a play by Beckett?

Enders Game is a sci-fi novel written by Orson Scott Card.

I read it years ago. From what I recall, it was a very good book and I heartily recommend it.

I voted "No - Other" because I hate these gay fucking questions.

No offense to homosexuals.

Every hot girl would have 2 or more cocks in them if we were all going to die...

Might as well get a 5 second orgasm before you die...

So yeah I'd like to know, so I could plan my schedule for who i'd be fucking in the last 24 hours of my life.

It's just food for thought, Dreg, Syl1 and Syl2.
If you don't like to think - as evidenced by your comments - you don't have to post. ;)

So rape is ok by you as long as the world's coming to an end? /boggle

I thought this post would be about WoW or EQ2. Vary deceptive...

I'd want to know, but I'd be afraid of the world as a whole knowing. People are stupid and would do an unimaginable number of stupid things from rioting to raping to just random idiocy.

Sorry. The first sentence was somewhat misleading.

I'd be having unsafe sex with every underage girl in juvenile hall. I guarantee it.

I'd try to stop it. Maybe I do watch too much TV, but I'd be doing everything in my power to stop this from happening, or to save the human race.

Maybe I'm too idealistic?

Attempting to stop it would be a good way to go if it was feasible. That said, I think the reprecussions of such an announcement going out would destroy any hope of saving civilization, so I'd rather people not know.

Yes, so I can get a sword and shout "There can be only one!". Ooops, wrong Endgame.

I'd drive home, and hug my folks before it ended if I could.

I would say no, imo there is no worse way to die then to know the exact day, time and minute my time is up leaving me with nothing but a miserable end and nothing to do but count down the minutes.

huh? I can think of a bazillion worse ways to go that involve acid, torture, fire, being buried alive, alzheimers, any number of severely debilitating diseases, etc.

Here's a choice for you:

You are going to die Next Monday at Noon instantly from a gunshot.

OR

You are put into an acid bath that will slowly eat away your flesh until you finally die but the exact time is unknown.

Actually I would probably throw the ring into the cracks of Mt. Doom.

The second one, because i wouldnt know...of course thats considering i couldnt avoid the gunshot death, and that i dont know im going to die at all from an acid bath

Thats just a weird phobia of mine though, a lot of people have a weird phobia about death i have discovered!
For that reason i always feel awful even for the worst death row inmates, even when i take into consideration the crimes they have commited

You mean to tell me you would rather die a slow horrible death instead of a quick one? I know you don't want to seem like a flip-flopper but c'mon, you're sounding like Bush rihgt now.

The last couple weeks would consist of kicking back in the everglades with a good buzz on.

Just smile and wave at the end.

The point is i would rather die a slow death some day in the future without knowing the exact day-time-second etc then a quick death a week away with me knowing the exact time...as i said theres no real logic behind it, its just a phobia i have to execution-like deaths, where i know the exact second in which i am going to die

of course i would prefer a quick death i didnt know about to a slow and painful one i knew was comming...

One of my favorite lines from Armageddon:
Rockhound : Guess what guys, it's time to embrace the horror! Look, we've got front row tickets to the end of the earth!
Embrace the horror!

You'd spend your last day getting up for work, working at a boring job for 10 hours, drive home, have dinner, take one good shit, post on a messageboard, and then go to bed?

I would try to prevent it from happening. So when it works, I can sit back and laugh at all the fuckers who did stupid shit that they'd normally get into assloads of trouble for, thinking that they could get away with it :twisted:





If that didn't make sense I apologize. I'm quite sick and my brain is not functioning too well today.
