The 2012 thread inspired me to write about a thing I'm sometimes thinking about. How do you imagine would the world and especially people's behaviour change if we really knew there's gonna be for example unavoidable collision with a huge asteroid (just an example, could be anything else, so don't nitpick please) a year from now (+-week)? Would everyone just quit their job and there would be nothing but chaos? Would people try to live their everyday's life till the end?

if you know any books/movies about this topic, please post it here, I'd gladly read/watch it

I think a lot of people would devote themselves to trying to come up with a way to beat the odds and try to prevent the disaster.

But I am also being very optimistic.

Well if the world is really about to end, it's time to do things you would normally wouldn't do. But yeah, probably quit my job and enjoy the time you have left with your family.

Depends how long in advance we knew. If we knew a year in advance, we're more likely to take risks, but we probably more or less continue to function as a society. If we know a week in advance... Yeah, most people are going to forget about the rat race and just take vacation for the rest of their lives.

I don't think it would be chaos or anything... Just people collectively realising wealth no longer matters.

Personally? I'd probably spend my remaining time writing, even if I knew anything I came up with would be eradicated. See family... friends. Things like that.

definitely down.
it'd be the most retarded thing ever to kill yourself when you know you're going to die shortly anyways AND you're going to die alone rather than die with others.


idk what I'd do if the world was confirmed to end. I'd imagine alot of chaos however.


lol at suiciding when the world is ending.

Rape rates however will go up exponentially.

I think people don't commit rape because they feel it's against their morals, not because they fear the consequences -.- Certainly there'd be a few more than normal, but I'm guessing it wouldn't be drastic.

Yeah, screw all this "I'd just party/vacation/do whatever I want". Step up to the plate and do something about it. Even if there is a miniscule chance of survival, it's better than just accepting defeat.

I think the world would fall apart. Looting, murder, rape, and lawlessness. Some will band together and form militias but the families and people who are so used to the current system will have little chance to survive.

You will need guns and lots of them.

For me, what would I do?

I'd get some friends and family and wait until the shit hit the fan. Wait until society comes unglued. We'd then strip our cars down and mod them out for combat. I'd require everyone in our group to wear football shoulder pads and carry guns or mini crossbows that attach to your wrist. We would then cruise the highways looking for gas while terrorizing anyone we see. I would be the leader and my clan would call me "Lord Humungus"....I would also wear a steel hockey mask too.

I would listen to I Don't to Miss a Thing by Aerosmith over and over.

But in seriousness, Religions would almost certainly see a massive influx, lots of people would drop out of school/quit their jobs.

I personally would try my best to get to masters. Dying as rank 1 in a diamond league is no way to go

I agree that rape would sky rocket

The people who are saying how civilised the Japanese are and not commiting crimes, have you forgotten about the massive earthquake in Kobe?

There were groups of girls who were just taking a shit in public toilets when they were fucked while they they were shitting by a group of mother fuckers. I am waiting to hear stories like that again because it is bound to happen.

Oryx & Crake by Margaret Atwood. It's a great post-apocalyptic book that gives us an insight to what technology can do to the human race (no skynet type stuff). It's a great read. If you liked that one, then also read Year of the Flood by her as well. Year of the Flood is basically Oryx and Crake, but told through other characters that lived in the poorer side of societty. I found both of these books just awesome. I can't recommend them enough.

As for the question at hand. I would definitely stop working and just have fun with family, friends and everyone I knew. This is assuming that I can't do shit about whats happening. If an asteroid is about to hit the earth, then there isn't much that I can do about it.

If I knew for a 100% certain that the world was going to end and we would all end with it and there was no chance of preventing it, I would probably murder a certain individual I despise. Maybe rape someone because I know it won't matter shortly anyway.

I definitely wouldn't be sitting around doing nothing though, as I think most people wouldn't go numb but crazy.

I bet you anything that most people would think about a lot of stuff before having the idea of raping someone when they know that they are about to die.

Maybe I'm over optimistic.

I would become a road warrior similar in looks to Mel Gibson and along with my dog would be a mercenary that would help the groups that were plagued by these road bandits who were out to steal gas; perhaps, people would call me a noble road warrior. Later in life, I would go fight in these things called thunder domes and find cute little Australian kids lost in the desert who would mistake me for a pilot.

I would quit my work since it isn't critical to society. Then I would mass game as much as I could until the net/power went down.

After that I would probably be too weak to make it to the countryside for food, so I would starve to death.

I would probably reconsider the second part when it came to it.

Well, since life is now for sure finite for everyone with a distinct ending point, any instance where people could benefit from breaking cooperation will happen instantly, if people are rational.

Assuming i would know the exact moment the world would end.. imagine jumping off the tallest building in the world 5 seconds before it all ended.. epic

If it was more than a day - maybe i'd get my TL account IP banned so i could actually venture into the real world and enjoy what's left.. or i'd just sit and watch streams all day

I'd be optimistic for sure and hope that everyone tries to live as normally as possible and work toward a solution. But if everything went to shit I'd definitely be living in a bunker, ammo'd up and stocked up with supplies to last me 1.5yrs at least.

I would play Starcraft ! (:

Well, that's sort of a joke (not completely hehe). But I don't have many short term goals, if you could call them that. I mean, my aspirations are things that either could not be achieved quickly or would only help people in the future, which wouldn't exist. (Bear in mind I am assuming destruction is inevitable, I would do something if survival was possible.)

I suppose I'm with everyone on here about just relaxing with those around me. I'm impressed no one on here posted something immature/foolish. I was expecting some idiot to say "I would just do every chick in sight and then loot every store and get mad rich and do a ton of drugs and then save the world so I had everything!" This community is cool.

Oh wait, just saw Alexson's post, never mind.

Ah, no use worrying about it, because it won't happen and even if it did, Tassadar would save us.

I don't think we'd see a complete breakdown of order. I mean, if you there's only 2 days left to live what's stopping you from shooting that fool who's robbing people in the street? It goes both ways, and I think there are more wannabe vigilantes than sociopaths.

Me, I'd probably hook up with someone, have some fun, chill, etc. It's not like I'd have anything to worry about, LOL.

At first I thought that perhaps the rate of rapes would go up, but thinking over it, it seems rather unlikely. The act of rape is actually quite disgusting and repulsive to what I consider the average male. It's bloody, there's crying and screaming, and only someone with a disturbing psychological profile could actually get off on something like that.

I think in the imminent threat of death and destruction, there would be a great deal of vandalism and boob grabbing... but probably not rape (except the alcohol/drug variety, I guess)

If the world were ending I'd probably end up celebrating. Perhaps have a nice party.

LOL so the only reason you don't do those things is because of civil repercussions?

actually I don't think I'll have the heart to rape someone... but killing someone I hate brutally is a yes for sure...

How old are you? Just to know.

it's amazing how many people throw away their sense of morality just because they know they are going to die !(myself included)

i would get married to my gf and try different types of drugs i've always been curious about. i already planned on trying many diff drugs before i died anyway.
Is it in you?

Ok. You wouldn't kill anybody.

I would probably only hear about the end of the world when it's over already, though i'd wonder why everyone is behaving so strangely before that (unless it happens on a weekend).

I'm pretty sure everyone would quit what they're doing and start doing that they love.
I'd spend all my money I have, to just have fun until I die.
That's how life is supposed to be, too bad it doesn't work that way on this planet.

Interesting responses in this thread.

When people find out about their death, it almost always sends them into a spiral of depression. Not knowing when you are going to die protects you by allowing you to live in the dellusion that there will always be tomorrow.

What you would be effectively doing would be throwing everyone on earth into a depressed state. The majority of people in the world would not see it as an oppourtunity to do all the things that they always wanted to do but couldn't due to consequences. The majority of people in the world would handle it the same way a depressed person handles life. Suicide, drug use, religion, escapism and seclusion would be the main things that would skyrocket.

Murder and rape would increase by a bit, but moreso because people would suffer mental breakdowns rather than because the only thing holding them back now is fear of consequences.

Causing harm to someone else (unless you're a sociopath) is actually not something that brings pleasure.You would not be enjoying yourself as you hacked to pieces a person screaming in pain or if you were on top of a girl who was crying and pleading for you to stop. You would actually feel awful.

If I knew the world was going to end, I would find myself a girl to spend my remaining time with and experiment with drugs.

I would try to patch things up with a certain girl. If she wasn't interested in that I would start smoking weed again and spend my last days high as a bird. If I knew the end would be slow, like an astroid hitting the other side of the planet, I would probably chill until it got really bad then find a way to kill myself quickly.

This thread reminds me of "The Road". Such a good book, I have to read it again.
Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!

I'd probably make a meme about it

I'd spend whatever money I have left on the best scotch and cigars I can get my hands on, kick back with the missus, and watch the world end.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy
