    Serious question:

    If this scenario did happen, i.e. people just disappeared from the island how long would the power stay on?
    I'd imagine it would take a few hours

    But where will you get the time to fall in love with the dangerous yet beautiful stranger you met on your travels?
    I think finding things to fill your time would be a far bigger challenge than anything else tbh.

    I'd go to the airport and learn to fly a plans and travel the world. I probably would never come back to Ireland and would settle in Australia or somewhere with a warm climate and work on my tan.

    Id find a massive house with a garage and start to steel my dream cars, and stock up on porn mags food and guns just incase of zombies:D

    oh yes and a few naggins :)

    Take up smoking.

    Im just afraid of walking out, only to be met with the sights of some wobbling drunkards sniffing crusty skivvies:(

    There was a program made about what would happen to the earth if the population vanished. The power would go out in a couple of days, maybe even less.

    secure the house and await zombie apocalypse. because you know thats the only way this scenario will play out.

    You only gotta go stand around Abbey St and Talbot St for that to happen.. plenty of zombies in around there.

    I would go to The Aviva for a kickabout. Then off to the O2 to put on an epic one man show. Are the animals all gone too? If not I would go to the zoo and steal a baby meerkat and keep it in the breast pocket of my pimp suit I stole from some fancy tailors.

    Oh and not gonna lie the celebrity undie sniffing that some of you creeps have been mentioning would most likely be done on day one too. :D

    Id hook a PS4 up to a cinema projector for games and 3d porn, then go stock up on drink. visit every guards barracks evidence room and stock up on goodies. Then id set up the biggest sound system in the middle of town and drop acid, then watch 3d porn on the comedown.

    Pick up a good few generators, stock pile petrol and food in a nice house.
    Then I'd spend the next 2 weeks playing all the nicest link golf course around, before the grass grows wild and they become unplayable.
    Once the golf became unplayable, I'd stock the house with everything I could possibly need, maybe get a green house and start growing some fresh food.
    Then once I got bored, I start reading books on golf course management and start maintaining a nice 9 hole stretch.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 604 ✭✭✭Vandango


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

    "I think you've had enough Mary, we don't want a repeat of last Saturday's antics "

    And I'm having what you're having.

    Drive a train at full speed into another train but jump out in time to see if the welded together. And then drink every bottle of jack Daniels in the nation while writing down my funnies for no body to read


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,880 ✭✭✭ArtyM


    It really is quite worrying how many people here view the end of civilisation as a long awaited opportunity to get hammered, sniff knickers, and burn stuff to the ground.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,119 ✭✭✭poundapunnet


    Any small city could probably keep you going with food for years and years. I'd find some grand sturdy house, stockpile food, medication and toiletries. Then onto books, clothing, and cleaning supplies. Basically non-stop looting for the first while, honestly. I'd go around Galway breaking into houses and stocking up on weed then, which should take around half an hour.

    And then I think I'd live out the rest of my days in relative contentment. I'd have me a few dogs, grow me some vegetables, go swimming in the nip and go quietly and merrily insane from isolation. Ahh, bliss.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,294 ✭✭✭YellowFeather


    I'd be really paranoid that everyone else in the world was off watching me like some one person reality TV show so I'd just try acting really normally until I began slowly losing my mind.

    Liberate an army of these http://www.robotlawnmowers.ie/, rob a container truck to put them in the back of and travel the country playing all the links courses with robotic friends :). might be ongoing problems with getting petrol so get diesel generators, plenty of above ground tanks about and you can pump it from below ground safer.

    Set up a stage in Croke Park, rig up some powerful amps, sing some God awful songs about divorce, heartbreak and flatulence every night for a week then fill up everyone's hallway with Tennessee whiskey urine.

    That'll learn 'em.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 464 ✭✭The Th!ng


    I'd shag some of the good looking women that would be lying around before they'd start to rot.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,473 ✭✭✭Wacker The Attacker


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


    If you were a proper stalker you would have a wheelbarrow full of her knickers.

    Preferably ones with skidmarks and fanny juice

    Next door has a electricity wind mill job, few sheep down the road too so I'd drive around and find a petrol tanker, figure out how to drive the ****er, bring it back home and spin around the place going dunnes to dunnes stocking up on tins of beans and stuff that lasts ages. I'd say if I didn't go mad I'd make it to at least 70 years old. every time I get a cold just take a rake of antibiotics. Drive around all day looking for cool stuff, have a big mad collection of guns and blurays, and every time I don't like something that happens in a movie I could just shoot the telly because there'd be loads of spares

    A pretty big part of me really wants this to happen. Even for a few weeks just.
