What will you do if the sun explode in a week?

[Tiny]

Well lets just pretend that the sun is going to explode itself and turn into a white dwarf in a week... what will you do? LOL remember you still have a week...

[Josh]

die

[Faulkner]

laugh

[devilmech]

play some music and experiment with drugs

[Graceless]

Buy one of everything.


Alright. Maybe two. On credit.



Alright. I'd probably head to Africa with some clever "birth of civilization, end of civilization" excuse. On credit.

[NasaBoy]

I'd die......no I would turn myself into a robot, and survive! MWUHAHAHAHAHA!!!! :P :D :lol: B) :blink: :huh:

[madaboutyou]

I'd go swiming in water, its like WET. :o

[Spacemad]

I´d just continue with my life - after all there´s not much more you can do in a week, is there? Everything would be over in a instant - well perhaps 8 mins. or so, when the explosion actually arrives & converts the Earth into a cinder! :(

[Weaselbunny]

I buy a few bottles of factor 5000! :P

[Faulkner]

I'd steal a machine gun, break into Woomera, hijack a scramjet rocket & blast off out of the solar system! (First I would fill the spaceship up with booze, drugs, women, and frozen pizzas!)... :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Weaselbunny]

If you sold tickets I'd buy one. Stay on earth and fry, or see the galaxy... easy choice really.

[Forealfc]

I would just kick back on my lawnchair with a bud light in one hand and a bottle of Jack on the other hand. WHOO HOO!!!!

[DippyHippy]

LOL I think you'd find it hard to buy *anything* if it's common knowledge the world was gonna end... also, I should think they'd put a stop on all credit transactions and unnecessary travel to avoid exactly these kinds of scenarios LOL

But yes, it wouldn't stop me from trying to be with those I love.

[Faulkner]

I was wondering, if some doomsday scenario like this DID occur, would the governments of the world continue to "govern" right up to the last minute? I mean, a few hours before the Earth blew up, could I still be fined for jay-walking?

[DippyHippy]

LOL Good point - but what cop in their right mind is going to be patrolling the streets anyway??

[Faulkner]

An anal-retentive one.

[damienpaul]

I'd tell my students what i REALLY think...:lol: :P

[NasaBoy]

Wait a minute....you said lets just say the Sun is going to become a white dwarf in a week.......but doesn't a star become a Red Dwarf before a White Dwarf? Also, when it becomes one, probably since it will be so massive it will consume Earth. So really forget about the week to live comment......

[Cambo]

wine, women and song what else would there be to do!
I like the SP5000 idea though!
but then Faulkner, if I beg really, really nicely and say you were the bestest, could I come too?

[Faulkner]

No, steal your own spaceship! :P

[Weaselbunny]

Didn't your mum teach you to share?

Or are you just like Golem! :lol:

I would have to do all the crazy things I daren't do for fear of death... I'd buy the most powerful motorbike I could get my hands on and race around like there was no tomorrow, literally! :ph34r:

[Polly V]

I'd go up to northern (really northern) California to Mt. Shasta and enjoy my favorite view, not to mention the night sky is absolutely lovely up there. B)

[Faulkner]

wine, women and song

I think more along the lines of "sex, drugs & rock'n'roll"! B)

But seriously, if I couldn't steal a scramjet rocket - (or if, say, it hadn't been built yet :P ) - I'd probably loot a bottleshop & take myself a long, long way outa this city! Somewhere out whoop-whoop! :lol:

Maybe I'd find a cave & go down it & be protected from the Sun's supernova, so when I came out I would be the OMEGA MAN and everyone else would have turned into VAMPIRES!

[Weaselbunny]

Omega Man... eh? :huh:

Is it my youth or nationality working against me here? <_<

(Does it mean the last man alive? Is this a pop culture reference? It&#39;s as lost on me as The HHGTTG is on you Faulkner&#33;) :lol:

[Faulkner]

Weaselbunny, "The Omega Man" starring Charlton Heston (&#39;71) is one of the coolest films out there&#33; Go rent it, you&#39;ll love it&#33; ;)

http://www.movieactors.com/photos-misc/scifi63.jpeg

It is actually a remake of "The Last Man On Earth" starring Vincent Price (&#39;64). Both films are based on Richard Matheson&#39;s haunting novel "I Am Legend".

[Weaselbunny]

Cheers bud, you&#39;re a veritable font of knowledge B)

[Weaselbunny]

Cheers bud, you&#39;re a veritable font of knowledge B)

[Weaselbunny]

Doh&#33;

[Faulkner]

Doh&#33;

If you like reading fiction, I highly recommend the Matheson book.

A plague has wiped out humanity, leaving one man alive, all alone. There&#39;s a nice description of him walking through a park & hearing birds singing. He thinks to himself how (before the plague) he used to hear birds singing & thought they were happy & all was well with the world. Now he realizes they sing because they&#39;re just brainless...

I liked that, for some bizarre reason...&#33;? :lol:

Hey, what was this topic about again??

[Weaselbunny]

A Doomsday scenario, so you&#39;re not too far off. And I agree, I like it too. I&#39;ll get the book. (That&#39;s if the sun don&#39;t explode at the end of the week ;)

[galaxygirl]

I&#39;d probably do something like sky-diving and bungee jumping.

[drodo2002]
