In light of the crazy fundamentalists who think the world is going to end at 6 pm on May 21st I wanted to create this poll to see how people think the world is going to end. Let the crazy debate ensue! My brain says nuclear apocalypse but my heart hopes that God has a sense of humor and the world ends by rabid squirrels.

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes,
an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid.
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn,
world serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs.
Feed it off an aux speak,, grunt, no, strength,
The ladder starts to clatter with fear fight down height.
Wire in a fire, representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site.
Left of west and coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck.
Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped.
Look at that low playing!
Fine, then.
Uh oh, overflow, population, common food, but it'll do.
Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and the revered and the right - right.
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign towers.
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn.
Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood letting.
Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate.
Light a candle, light a votive. Step down, step down.
Watch your heel crush, crushed. Uh-oh, this means no fear cavalier.
Renegade steer clear! A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies.
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) and I feel fine.
(I feel fine)

It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) and I feel fine.

The other night I dreamt of knives, continental drift divide. Mountains sit in a line
Leonard Bernstein. Leonid Brezhnev. Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs.
Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom!
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right.

There is a big difference between world ending and human race ending.

The Sun going super nova will probably be the only thing to take out the planet.

As for humans... my money is on some kind of super virus.

I voted other because I think it's more likely to be something else than any one of those.

Everyone becomes so nerdy, they can no longer get layed, and the world's human population dwindles off into nothingness.

Rabid Squirrel apocalypse makes the list but a biological apocalypse doesn't. We can thank Madagascar for keeping that one off the list.

I don't think a scenario can happen that will kill all 6/7 billion+ on the planet. Human will is so strong that there will always be a few survivors especially with all the disaster preparations and underground bunkers we have now. The only true end of the human race I see is the Sun blowing up but I voted for Asteroid/Meteor Apocalypse because that would be the most likely thing to kill 95%+ of humans; although a huge volcanic eruption is pretty likely too, but those sort of fit into the same category.

I'm glad you asked buddy, me and friends have recently being laughing at all the end of the world shit thats plagued our thinking for years, and I reached this conclusion:
We all keep guessing days that have some sort of significance, be it religious significance, some random ancient culture end of calender, or some shockingly close date to the TL Attack return. I imagine we'll all keep passing these buy, making new guesses, laughing them off as they pass UNTIL.... The second messiah comes, or some old lady who knows shit that comes in the future and they happen to be right, of course this time we'll be like 'Lol it won't happen, lets all laugh at that day' and when the day does come where the sky is raining blood, plagues turning us all into zombies leaving a short window for Bischu/<insert pro thats on tilt> to win a tournament before the world ends.
I have spoken, it shall be written down and revered for years to come.

Either world war 3 or earth collides with asteroid / another planet.

If we are lucky and survive all of that, earth will be consumed by sun 5 billion years from now. But I think that won't concern us (if there is still human race), because earth will be depleted and we will be living on another planet.

//edit: I'm hoping for zombie apocalypse, at least I'll have some fun before I die

Most realistic scenario is nukes given how nuclear proliferation will become a serious problem in 20-30 years.

Most fun scenario would be zombies.

By the Sun. The Asteroid better be colossal for the actual Planet to end.

I voted for "Everyone Turns Gay", but the three most likely are running out of resources, nuclear, or asteroid/meteor.

I voted other because its most likely that there will be an epic fight between Charlie Sheen and Chuck Norris which will cause a implosion of the earths core. Could of maybe gone under a couple of that categories but I doubt it's what you had in mind when you made them. Will be a fun day, my money's on charlie sheen.

Ivoted it must be an Asteroid, because i think even if we fuck up and break a nuclear war loose, someone/something will survive until the sun blows up in 5 billion years or until (and i think this will happen earlier) we get shattered by a huge asteroid !
so long
