I don't know... probably so I could properly say goodbye to everyone.

[ism]

Better question -- do you think they would tell us? =)

[kitty]

probably not... "for our own good"... but if we wanted to know then we could tell them to tell us...

[himura-dono]

*deletes innappropriate joke*

hmm...i think if i saw it looming in the sky, i'd have already thought, that we were fucked and go ahead and lay down.

[teaz0r]

i don't want to know.
after watching to many hollywood movies, i'd rather not know.

[VV o n g B a]

dude, why wouldn't u want to know? then u wouldn't spend the last few days of your life cramming for a test or working late in the office or worry about developing an addiction to some drug u've been meaning to try. then u could spend the last few days on vacation basically. go skydiving or base jumping and not worry about your safety. man... that would be sweet.

[kangal]

yeah....i would want to know....i think i'd do all the things that i was afraid of due to consequences....

[Napoleon Chynamite]

Hopefully this thread won't turn into the 'What would you do if you knew you would never ever get caught or suffer any consequences' thread. I was definitely tempted :lol: :P

good point. i didn't think about that. in that case, u could go rob a bank or carjack a benz or something.

[teaz0r]

i wanna have sex with angelina jolie. if the world was gonna end.
i'd like that. a lot.

[kitty]

i'd probably go waste my money on ice cream, cakes, balloons, and other things that aren't worth it. And travel the world with what time I had left.

Money?!!! Who needs money? Screw that...time to raid the 7-11. The twinkies shall be mine.

[kangal]

i'd break into fenway park and run the base paths....or maybe into legion field and run into the endzone

[blkazngirl]

I could have just one continous F**fest and die having an orgasim. Or I could just spend it with my daughter and family.

[ren28]

I'd want to know so I could do every illegal thing I ever wanted to do... like blast down 101S at 160+mph, steal an F1 race car and drive it around the track, shoot holes into engine blocks to see how far it goes, etc

[pfc beansprout]

i'd go smoke a fatty............

[ChinaLama]

I'd want to know because I'd then be FORCED to think about issues that have to do w/ life or afterlife. And if through the thinking i'm a confirmed atheist, then well....

But then again I tend to procrastinate on stuff like that so what may actually happen is I just sit and do nothing and die. :(

[tapestrybabe]

NO WAY!!!! i wouldnt want to know at all!!! Me, i wouldnt be able to function... id live my life feeling so scared of that day...

like when dr's tell you... you have so many days to live... i dont want to hear that type of stuff... like i'd be so focused and dwell on that last day... i'd feel too crippled to do anything else...

[ism]

On the other hand, it would give us a good excuse to eject Ben Affleck off the face of this planet.

[tapestrybabe]

i dunno man...
everyones gotta die...
but i really see NO POINT in learning the exact time frame... of how many days we have to live...

sincerely, i'm adamant when i say...
i wouldnt want to know...
please, just let me live my life
without having to dwell on such things...

[tapestrybabe]

me, if i did know how many days i had to actually live...
i think i would ACTUALLY die sooner... out of SO MUCH FEAR... of the thoughts of it...

[angel nympho]

I wouldn't want to know. I don't want to spend the last few hours of my life scared shitless.

:cry: Why would you do that?!

[angelwiththesword]

telling us an asteroid is heading for earth and expecting us not to freak out or look at things differently is like asking a good friend out for a date, getting rejected and expecting there not be at least some sort of awkwardness between yall.

i would rather not know, and live life normally until the bitter end

[golden_buns]

I'd be glad to see that my x would be erased from the face of earth

[golden_buns]

I'd also ask Natasha Yi to marry me in Las Vegas

[thaite]

I'd be that dude who's all "Hey, baby, you know we only got a couple days left to live and ..."

[AltimaGTR]

I'd indulge myself... you know...

[VV o n g B a]

this reminds me of a plot for a dark comedy movie that i don't think got released. the storyline was that some priest/archeologists found conclusive evidence that jesus was a fake or didn't exist or something. they then went on a rampage of murder, robbery, and rape b/c they knew there were no consequences to their actions and wanted to do all the "evil" things they didn't allow themselves to do before.

[teaz0r]

i'd bobbitized most of the boys in my life.

[bigwong235]

if only I or other people that i chose could know about the meteor, then yes. that way everything would function normally except for where i choose. otherwise, no.

[teaz0r]

i wonder if i'd eat ketchup that day.
when the meteor hits. like you know.
for closure. on whether i like ketchup
or not.

cuz i still can't tell if i like it or not.

[tvbdude]

I would want to know cuz then I'll shoot and kill everyone.

End of the world could be nigh, say scientists (http://icwales.icnetwork.co.uk/0100news/0700world/content_objectid=13986691_method=full_siteid=50082 _headline=-End-of-the-world-could-be-nigh--say-scientists-name_page.html)

The asteroid believed to have wiped out dinosaurs more than 65 million years ago was rare but hardly unique, say scientists who gathered in California to discuss ways of defending our planet from another such space rock.

Asteroids capable of inflicting damage on a global scale hit the Earth roughly every million years, and we should not dawdle in developing a method of deflecting them, say the scientists attending a four-day planetary defence conference in Orange County.
...
Prospects still grim.

I remember in a Simpsons episode where the news station was like "Well we can't get in trouble so... the following people are gay" it was quite humorous because it was random and they ran a list of names.

I imagine there would be alot of rape and pillaging going on. In all liklihood, I'd want to protect my bum.

[Deadpool]

(Whachu doin?) Nothing chillin at the Holidae In
(Who you wit?) Me and my peeps won't you bring four of your friends
(What we gon' do?) Feel on each other and sip on some Hen
One thing leading to another let the party begin



I dunno. I'd guess I'd reach out and touch someone. Better buy a rubber body suit, teaz0r, its gonna get nasty.

[nonamerasian]

Find sleeping pills to take just before impact. After that's found, go buck wild.

[Adaon]

I'd prolly go out and start slashing people with a wooden sword, and throw a smoke bomb and try to disappear......but end up choking on the fumes and passing out and getting throttled with said sword while unconscious. But then again, this prolly wouldn't have to wait til a meteor came crashing down on us, depends when I can get enough smoke bombs and when I can get a wooden sword. :biggrin:

[mr. x]

^----hahahaha, in other news the meteor missed earth by a few hundred miles. sucks for u losers who blew their brains out instead of going to a massive orgy like i did

[Martino]

Re: thread title: would do you mean, if?

yeah....i would want to know....i think i'd do all the things that i was afraid of due to consequences....

What, go skiiing, then spend the rest of my (short) life (before then end of the world) in bed with a broken leg? No thank you.

I'd probably get the date mixed up or something. I see myself waking "the day after", thinking "Yayyy! Somebody saved the Eart--"BOOOOM

Go on, be courageous, reach out to someone. Never mind about meteors, you might be hit by a bus tomorrow.
