    A nuclear weapon is about to be used on Dublin in a world war.


    You have been given a televised warning of 4 minutes until strike.

    Get in a fridge should be the obvious answer.

    With the crazy clementine in office i guess we are in a situation of nuclear strike pending, so keep plodding?.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,314 ✭✭✭✭branie2


    Head for the nearest fallout shelter - if Ireland has any


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,185 ✭✭✭screamer


    Kiss your ass goodbye.....

    Sit on the jacks in blissful ignorance - reading boards bitching about travel pass over-use on public transport, whilst all the pensioners (tv watchers) clog the buses out of town in a bid for survival. Good luck with the repopulation attempts old dudes!

    Go on a rampage on boards and ban everyone..

    Actually, pretty good where I am, so staying put and would probably stay glued to the news until the power went off.

    The wife.

    4 minutes. You'd want to live close.

    There actually is one not too far from where I am. It was built in the 80's and was opened as a night club, but technically is a nuclear fallout shelter

    In the corner, where the telly should be.

    A 4 minute time frame renders the OP rather pointless.

    Sit back and laugh as Cork will become de real capital finally boy...

    Bottle of whiskey and a shot glass....................

    Cry. Freak out a little. Go outside bollock naked. Crotch thrust my way into the nuclear fallout.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,342 ✭✭✭Filmer Paradise


    Cancel the milk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,633 ✭✭✭✭Widdershins


    Keep calm and drink some tea. You'd have no pain in your head after a direct hit so your last moments might a well be peaceful. I feel so sorry for people who have to think seriously about this kind of thing right now.

    I'd get me some Cake (it's a made up drug)

    Cake contains a psychoactive compound, dimesmeric andersonphosphate. This ingredient stimulates Shatner's Bassoon, and so drastically alters an individual's perception of time.

    The 4 minutes will feel like a lifetime so I'll be able to ignore the threat and carry on


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,554 ✭✭✭valoren


    Take my iodine pills with a big, smug smile. Crisis averted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,314 ✭✭✭✭branie2


    Ever see the episode of Only Fools and Horses where Del, Rodney and Granddad build their own nuclear fallout shelter?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,982 ✭✭✭minikin


    Plenty of time to slap on some sun block, factor 8 should do it.

    cup of tea...be grand


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,134 ✭✭✭Lux23


    Wouldn't be a lot you could do in four minutes. Cry? Smash things, I don't know.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,734 Mod ✭✭✭✭Boom_Bap


    I'd buy loads of frozen pizzas. I reckon that when the nuke goes off, it'll cook the pizzas quickly and I'd be able to stuff me fat eroding face with some before death.

    I hope it lands on my head.
    Wouldn't want to be around after it.

    Make my way towards O'Connell Bridge, or as far as one could get in 4 minutes, you don't want any risk of being a maimed survivor of one of those bad boys, get it over with for certain. Bottle of 18yo Jamey on the passenger seat of course.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 369 ✭✭Vinculus


    A dram of Whiskey for me too and I'd go out singing a song for Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,406 ✭✭✭sjb25


    Leave the immersion on


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,302 ✭✭✭Supergurrier


    I doubt Dublin would even get nuked. Plenty of other military complexes/population hubs in non neutral countries to nuke first.

    There may be thousands of warheads in existence but not nearly as many platforms for launching them.

    Fallout reaching us from the UK or north is a strong possibility however.

    End of the world and you settle for a Jameson? You'll die never knowing what real whiskey is like. :(

    Unless you're in an area a bit further out where you won't be vapourized. Might then instead suffer the experience of your skin melting off your bones from the heat.

    not gonna happen, they've modified the 1918 Spanish flu so that no one has any resistance, especially older folk. t'll be released at some stage and a billion or so will drown in their own body fluids.

    Thats what's coming.
