I think I'll go for a walk in the local park now.

We will all be long gone and so will our offspring, so why worry, be happy.

If not, the Government will save us just like in the movies. That is, if we still have a military.

Sorry, I know this is not what you meant by this post but I just couldnt control myself.

What if Superman goes blind and starts killing us good guys!

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

It's been done. He did, basically. But the good superman in him arose and killed the bad superman.

This world will end thousands and thousands of years from now. The sun will go into its red dwarf stage and engulf everthing up to Mars.....

The title of this thread reminded me of one of my favorite Robert Frost poems.

Fire and Ice (1923)

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

The end of the world will happen only if people keep believing the end of the world will happen. Cheer up! As Bill Gates said, "the best is yet to come".

Its the end of the world as we know it..
Its the end of the world as we know it..

Its the end of the world as we know it..
Its the end of the world as we know it..
Its the end of the world as we know it..

Yah Yah.. I can't sing worth a damn and just remember one line.

I think George Carlin said it best
"The world isn't going anywhere we are"

I'am betting on the Global epidemics one myself

the black hole one looks pretty bad...having earth getting thrown out of it's orbit...resulting in dramatic climate changes. good thing we could predict something like this several years ahead...but what good would that do anyway? oh i know... party your ass off for the few years you have left! and as much random sex as possible!

Don't worry kami, you're not the only sickly perverted person on these forums. I found it intriguing as well.

Its funny. why do ppl fear so much? we all die someday. some people want to goto heaven after death, but what is the point of living forever? I think death makes us to think we have a point in this life (since there is a time limit). End of world.. that will happen one day too.

damn what i say didnt have any point... hehe so what, i'll die soon too.

I have a perfect rating.. I always knew my mom was right when she told me I was the smartest boy in school.

I would hope that if the world was going to end, we would have at least a 24 hour warning. That way I could make sure I was doing something *useful* (wink wink) when I die. Hell, 60 minutes would be enough, but I'd need some time to go and laugh at all the people that made fun of me in grade school before I got down to business.

I expect that if the world is going to end, it wont happen by an outside force such as meteorites and black holes. More likely would be a war-happy dictator, or a fouled experiment with nulclear equipment. We seem to have most of the world's war-mongers in check at the moment, so now I guess I'll just be watching the sky for a falling rock.
