24 hours to live...

The entire human race has 24 hours to live. Why you ask? Errr… ummm… just because. What would I do? I’m not sure I’d go around looting all the shops, everyone would be going mad and it wouldn’t be a safe place to be. I reckon I would probably just wait around for the inevitible. I might ring up some girl I have liked for ages and tell her, but other then that, just sit tight. Perhaps other people would do other stuff. But I’m not going to ask what other people would do wink wink, coz then this thread might get moved over to the ghost town that is IMHO.

cough cough

So I’m not gonna ask

ahem

I’d light up a cigarette, put my feet on the desk and lean back in my chair staring out of the window hoping for a good view of the end of the world.

However, I think a general ‘running around and screaming’ is probably more likely.

I would get really stoned, listen to Rush, and try to live out all my sexual fantasies that I’d never indulged with some random lomg-haired tattooed fuck machine I’d pick up looting the 7-11.

Do you mean RUSH as in Big Audio Dynamite?

I’d loot a bookstore, a music store, a liquor store and grocery store. Then go home, play as many CDs that I’ve never heard as I could, read as many books that I’ve never read as I could, drink a lot and make myself a nice, unhealthy meal.

it would depend on the how human race was going to go out - care to add any specifics?

I would get on a space ship filled with a bunch of hot babes, and my best friends, and sit back and watch the earth crumble to pieces. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Get together with my good friends, hopefully add some nice girls to the equation and spend time together.

And maybe introduce a twister board and massage lotion…

I’d sigh heavily, fire up the TARDIS, and return to Gallifrey, but not before going back a few days to buy some very fine steaks and refill the bottle on my gas grill (I’m taking them with me).

~~Baloo

P.S.: This does not preclude coming back to save the Earth from destruction, but I suippose I’d want to be certain it wouldn’t unduly disrupt the rest of the space-time continuum.

I’d fire up my Sub-Etha Sens-O-Matic and hitch a ride on a Vogon ship.

And I’d stow away on the ship with TroubleAgain. :^)

Don’t forget your towels!

Oh, yeah, and DON’T PANIC

:smiley:

I wouldn’t waste my time with the significance of 42…I’d be too busy showing TroubleAgain the…ahem…absolute value of an integer exactly 27 intervals higher. :smiley:

Oh, and maybe that "normal stuff, too. :stuck_out_tongue:

Sorry–but I AM on her crush list, and the world IS about to end…

“These lovers cry Oh! oh! they die!
Yet that which seems the wound to kill,
Doth turn oh! oh! to ha! ha! he!
So dying love lives still”
–Trolius and Cressida, Act 3, Scene i

Oh, and I’d steal Welfy’s towel.

Oops. She’s a minor. Can’t have any of that…

[SIGH]

Finally, I wouldn’t panic.

In a word, Donuts! Krispy Kreme’s preferably!
(I’m diabetic, but if the world’s ending, I’m satisfying my sweettooth!)

If the world was to come to an end and I was still out to sea…

Well, what could I do?

Find the violin I played throughout high school. I’m taking it with me.
Set fire to and torch EVERYTHING I own.
Go to a strip club during the gay and fetish hours.
Get drunk (hey, I’ve never done that before, okay?).
Swim naked in the Pacific at sunset.
Flip the bird to all the people I don’t like.
Call up some people I miss from high school.
Check my e-mail. :smiley:

DRY, would you wait till then to submit your pic to the People Pages? :slight_smile:

Garsh, golly, gee, DRY, you almost make me wish the world really would be ending in 24 hours… :smiley: :eek: :o

I gotta say, my first inclination was to move this thread to IMHO, but y’all are bein’ too silly. It stays, for now. Don’t get too serious, though, or it’s gone.

Light up a big fat cigar, crack open a bottle of Johnny Blue Label, lean back against a tree with my feet up on a rock and watch from the top of a mountain cliff i had just climbed. And right before it happens, jump in the tardis w/ Baloo 'cause there’s plenty of room in there, and we could go chasing after Trouble throughout the universe and play universal tag.

steal a really nice convertable from a dealership and drive as fast as i possibly can through the twisty wooded roads of CT blasting TMBG. then drive the car off a cliff an jump out… ill bet that would look really cool.
