    Reading a news paper today and there was a small piece about a new Irish feature film called the Omega Male about a guy who wakes up in an abandoned Dublin.
    So I got thinking, if you woke up tomorrow morning and there is absolutely no one around what would you do?
    I believe the very first thing I'd do is go to Tesco and get as much alcohol as possible, head off to Stephans Green and get absolutely pissed.

    You don't need an apocalypse to live that dream.

    Probably go to the house of the Girl I stalk to sniff her undies

    I would look in Louis Walsh's closet.

    Get the last game of GTA in before the power goes.

    And gather up porn mags. Like I said the powers going to run out.

    Yeah, knickers sniffing for me too.

    Most likely steal cars and go to hot female celebs houses though, like Andrea Corr, Sarah Morrissey etc, find their laundry basket and just bliss out.

    Not much else to do in an deserted Apocalypse scenario in fairness.

    Oh, and I'd have a go a few of the swings in Tayto Park.

    I wake up every day and there's absolutely no on around. The joys of living in the country. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,195 ✭✭✭✭jimgoose


    Hmm - hard to say. What's the craic exactly - has everyone been Zombified? Beamed up by space aliens? Have they all died of some hideous disease? Or are they all hiding somewhere just to take the mickey out of me specifically??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,561 ✭✭✭Duff


    I'd stick a load of magnets to myself and attempt to scale the Spire. I'd probably bottle halfway and come down, though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,632 ✭✭✭Aint Eazy Being Cheezy


    You'd get pished on your own? That'd be my idea of hell, waking up with a hangover, hungry and horny with nobody to cook for you or shag!

    I'd have to go with stealing cars and sniffing undies too, speed up Laura Whitmores driveway in some tossers nicked X5, smash her bedroom window and inhale the aroma of her dirty kacks, with nobody around to see what kind of a deranged dirty pervert I obviously must be. Yeeha :)

    I heard an interview with the makers last week. The film is a metaphor for emigration. There was a real smack of pious student filmmaker off them to be honest.

    I see. Well in that case it'd be load up the Z1000 with hatchet-holster, semi-auto shotgun and .45 ACP, and go on a Terminator-style rampage around the place rooting out and exterminating the last of the bastards. Then settle down in the peace-and-quiet with a few good books.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 178 ✭✭AdolfHipster


    Stupid things I would never get the chance to do otherwise:

    Destroy a building with a wrecking ball.

    Veer wildly around Dundrum SC on a quad throwing gallons of milk through shop windows.

    Empty roads? I'd find the fastest car I could and hit the roads. Probably head up to the airport and have a crack off flying a plane then.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,753 ✭✭✭Vito Corleone


    Alcohol and food. Maybe a trip to the pharmacy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,866 ✭✭✭✭bear1


    The amount of posters that have said they'd sniff womens underwear as answers, I truly hadn't expected :eek: :D

    Let's say it's like the opening of 28 Days Later but no zombies, people have merely vanished.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 260 ✭✭Franticfrank


    I'd burn down a warehouse full of lumber.

    Ah but you see I could go to the Ann Summers shop on O'Connell and get myself a fleshlight, job done :D
    Isn't there a Ferrari dealership in Dublin? If yes that's the second port of call and possibly with a bottle of whiskey in my hand.
    Then afterwards I'd go my companies main building and burn the ****er down :)

    It's good to see that the Internet hasn't completely got rid of the old-fashioned small town perv. Still a rump of dirty deviants in anoraks stealing underwear from clothes lines, sniffing the saddles of bikes, and walking around wearing mirrored sunglasses.

    I see. Absolutely no sign of anyone and no clue what happened. Well, the underwear-sniffing would have to wait until I was quite sure the bastards weren't going to jump out from behind a door and roar "Gotcha, ya furty ducker!!" :D

    They've all been tricked to live on the life sized Paper Mache model of Earth that The Brain built in a bid to take over the world.

    Become the landlord of a pub and serve pints to my mannequin friends

    I'd go to Penneys and rob one of EVERYTHING, then go to Tesco and loot enough food and drink to keep me going for a few months. Then I'd get really lonely :(

    Wtf?

    Crucial question: Is my dog still here or has she vanished as well?

    Indeed. And after that, and a suitable amount of panty-huffing, probably settle down to a life of doing whatever I like and, I dunno, going quietly but productively insane. In fact it probably wouldn't make much difference, except I may possibly cultivate a beard with a rabbit-bone in it. I would probably eventually become obsessed with the idea that Elvis had beamed everyone else off to the Paradise Planet except me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 620 ✭✭✭aidoh


    Think I'd go to the zoo and let all the animals out. Just to make scavenging trips a bit more interesting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 178 ✭✭AdolfHipster


    Assemble an outfit fit for a King, proclaim my rule from Fort Lucan.

    No dog, complete isolation in an empty city.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,241 ✭✭✭rameire


    I would find a fork lift, and go around the whole of Dublin, and place cars correctly into car parking spaces.

    I had no idea what a Switzers was so just assumed it was a shop I've never heard of...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,973 ✭✭✭RayM


    I'd go around setting buildings on fire. And then I'd steal a fire engine and put the fires out.

    Drive around in Bonos Maserati with the knickers in my head! Who's going to give a damn anyway?

    Wander around aimlessly for a few days, then kill myself when the loneliness becomes unbearable.

    I'd head straight to Cork.

    Plenty of zombies in there as it is

    Petrol Station to fill up my car and some nicer cars I saw on my way to the station. Burn whatever I can't take.

    Supply and Demand

    I have the supply, I have the demand. I win 100% of the time
