A meteorite is on the way

A meteorite is on the way. It will hit planet Earth in 24 hours. There is no way of stopping it and the possiblilty of mankind surviving the aftermath is slim to none.

Well, not really. But imagine that this situation is actually happening. You have 24 hours left to live. In fact, everyone has 24 hours left to live. What would you do in those final hours?

Pighead

Pighead would canvass furiously for 20 hours to become a moderator of after Hours and after my landslide success i'd bin this thread and then proceed to ban your bony arse. I'd use the remaining few minutes to defend my actions on a thread in Feedback started by you.

I doubt the whole feedback thing would happen. Mainly because I'd be drunk somewhere. Possibly naked too.

You mean you've never started a feedback thread before whilst drunk and nude? I'll give it 2 weeks before thats rectified.

Anyway are you saying you'd spend your last day on earth getting drunk with no clothes on? What if all the girls point and laugh at your mini todger, surely you want to go to heavan with a smile on your face. Heres my advice, WEAR SOME SHORTS AND STUFF SOME FOOTBALL SOCKS DOWN THE FRONT.

Hrm, nah, i'd prefer to die the same way I was born.. naked and incredibly drunk.

Anyways, the shorts idea sounds good, just in case it might be a cold day..

While Pigheads responce is side splittingly funny, I'd nick a helicopter and take to the skys. I've always wanted to fly one, and while I don't know how, it wouldn't matter, and I'd have fun learning/dieing

24 hours to stop a meteorite eh? sounds like an idea for day 6.

comet

*quickly glances at OP*
f*ck, we're all f*cked

but seriously what could you do? probably take tomorrow off work, go home and watch sky news.

YeatsCounty

I'd loot stores for clothing and electrical equipment, naturally. I'd also discuss the works of Wittgenstein over a game of backgammon.

Nah. I'd spend that time in bed with the missus.

Tiesto

Id see how many banks i could rob in the 24 hours..

biko

Not sure about the first 23 hours, prob have excellent food, wine and s-e-x but just before it hits I'd try heroin.

DEmeant0r

I'd sleep it all, and then maybe kill myself minutes befor ethe world is wiped out of existance, no Meteorite is gonna kill me!

Devious

I'd phone Chuck Norris and tell him that a meteorite is about to hit. Problem solved.

get an obscene amount of beer and "protection" and high-tail it to the gf's house

DOLEMAN

Laugh with joy when I realise the meteor is going to hit America...

LOL just joking of course.

I'd probably try to forgive the people I can't forgive, try to be around people who are important to me, and not worry too much because they're nothing I can do to change the coming doom...

What happens if too many people have already requested the day off? SOMEONE has to answer those god damned phones!!

mysterious

Ok, the first we need to do is not panic...

Secondly is be aware, then ask yourself how does it feel, and when it does "happen" we will dig deeper on the topic in our last few minutes..

Wouldn't worry about it. If it ever was going to happen the powers that be would would make sure we never found out about it anyway.

Jello

Get laid.

Galvia

24 hours to live? Quick, charter a plane and get to my b/f!;)

Setun

Good thread.

Well I'd probs start running, possibly shout all the things I ever wanted to say <although if the meteorite miraculously missed the planet it could be a bit embarrassing> at people, rob a car to get around maybe, and if I have the time organise a massive free-jazz session on the top of Grafton Street. Producing sounds of mayhem, amongst chaos. Sounds like fun.

Sex.

Feck the age of consent We'd all be dead hours later they ain't gonna stop me

Haha i have to laugh.. i love all these answers "sex" and "big orgy"...gas..as if we'd all be running around having orgies with the loom of a horrible death over your head...haha....survival thats what everyone would be thinking off and trying to acheive

DEmeant0r

I don't think there'd be many survivors left if it did hit Earth O_o

ronbyrne2005

thing is this could happen at any minute! the authorities wouldnt tell us even though they would know months in advance,if you ever hear that world leaders are meeting in a nuclear bunker for a few days you know its on the way. best thing that could happen is a small one that would wipe out civilisation hit and killed a few hundred thousand/million and scare the authorities into developing a sure way of stopping future larger asteroids/metoerites

I'd test every one of my crushes for latent homosexuality.

The humourous thing to say here would be:

"I'd watch a full season of '24'!"























....

really not that humourous though! Wasn't funny in 'American Dad' and not here either!

I'd do drugs. Never did drugs before... I figure if you're gonna die why not die trying something new that will f*ck you up so much you won't give a cr@p about dying?

DEmeant0r

but what if you don't die from the meteorite and all the drugs in the world evaporates and you need a fix?

Steal a car. Drive to airport. Steal a plane. Fly to Florida. Steal a Space Shuttle. Go to space.

And somewhere along the way I'd stock up on Extreme Chilli Heatwave Doritos and Creme Eggs. I wouldn't last much longer than 24 hours, in fact I'd probably crash the plane somewhere over Swords, if not the car somewhere on the M50, but at least I would have tried.
