    Everything has a shelf life.... Eventually we will have an extinction level event, but what will it be?

    Meteorite, not so implausible it has happened in the past.

    War, we are throughout history awful fond of decimating ourselves as a race

    Disease, global pandemic

    What do you think might happen to the human race?

    Not if Apple's legal department has anything to say about it.

    I'd love a zombie outbreak that takes out 99% of the population. As long as I'm a survivor of course.

    It has already absorbed most of the under 22s.....

    Somebody will send an email demanding extinction and it'll have to be complied with.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,558 ✭✭✭wexfordman2


    I think kebabs are the thing.

    Kebabs will be the death of us all.

    Eventually there will be so many useless threads started on Boards, the internet will irreparably break.

    Then the world just does of boredom.

    Ridin...

    we'll all ride each other to death..

    Or possibly bean burritos.


    If not kebabs, then it will defiantly be bean burritos.



    Or lukozade!!

    Could be lukozade either, but I hope not, that would be a horrific way to go


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,681 ✭✭✭Fleawuss


    I hope everyone finishes anyway.

    I don't think it's that useless, I started it so I wouldn't, but I think it would be a little naive or arrogant to believe we won't eventually become extinct as a species!!

    Maybe we'll realise we're all repeating others jokes and just wrap things up because all the good **** has already been said.

    True..

    Or maybe we'll all bite the big one cause we have massive dickheads, sure who knows.

    Or my money would be on Our lord and saviour Jesus H Christ pulling the plug.

    I reckon death by Dinosaurs. They aren't dead you see. They've been living on the moon with Elvis and JFK just biding their time waiting for their chance to strike. It's true I tells ya!

    I think political correctness will kill us all, we won't be able to eat for fear of offending the "food challenged", we won't be able to breath in case the "living impaired" get upset.

    Save the human race, go out and punch a minority.

    If anything kills us off I do not think it would be war or disease or the like. Because there is always some level of survivor after that.

    My fear is something like Idiocracy - though I hate to give credence to a film that bad.

    Such that our reliance on technology becomes so high that a sudden lack of it - in the film it was due to people getting too stupid to maintain it - but in reality it could be a really crazy solar flare or the like that knocks it all out - leaves us completely lost.

    For me the question is not how will we end - but how - assuming a sudden and near complete loss of our species - can we plan to ensure the survivors - well - survive.

    oh something unexpected I'd imagine. there are so many of us now though it would have to be global like if something bad happened to the oceans.

    Supervolcano! thats it! the yellowstone park super volcano went up and wiped out the US in the power vacuum a war between Russian, China, Europe and India erupts and finishes of the rest of us.

    Getting wiped out by a meteorite would be like getting run over by a Nissan Micra. Not happening.

    An asteroid is what you want.
