Apocolypse thread
 

Thought I'd make this, to go with the current Universe thread.

Everything comes to an end. Probably not the universe, but who knows. And with recent ramblings about the apocolypse, be it from storms, zombies, or Mitt Romney, it's gotten me thinking that the world is obviously going to end eventually. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow. But someday, our world is going to rendered uninhabitable. And when that day comes, I want to be the smug bastard screaming "I was right" whilst being incinerated.

How do you think this will happen? Nazis reborn? Hitlers brain in a giant mech? The possibilities are limitless.

Black Mesa: Source will finally be released

I just imagine that it'll happen when the Sun goes loco. Would be freaky living in a time where the Sun starts causing significant damage to the Earth.

I really hope it's not sometime soon, what with the ozone layer diminishing and all. I haven't read much into the subject, but I've been told numerous times that it's getting pretty bad.

OANST clones.

You guys better watch the fuck out when Abbey gets old enough to join, and continue my reign of terror.

OANST finally admitting he likes Lorne

Oh, god. Are you sure you should let her? I imagine it would do nothing but warp her mind.

There oughta be an age restriction on this place.

I said "old enough." So sixteen at the very least.

If she doesn't sneak in by herself before that.

I doubt that will be a huge danger. What kid wants to go to the same place their dad does?

In this hypothetical scenario? Yours. She might have been turned by a foreign agent and tasked with spying on her father in the belief that you possess government secrets. Perhaps you do. Will.

My point is that I don't think you have given this possibility due consideration.

So the same shit but with cute?

I'M CUTE!

I laughed

I reckon it'd be quite weird if Abbey came on here, would be the first occasion any children of a member set foot on here. Mind you... do any members other than OANST have kids?

There's that one Japanese guy isn't there?

Who knows the most likely way that the world will end? It probably will be a natural phenomena.
I was thinking we would create something that will overthrow humanity or an Alien race enslaving us all. And yes I am thinking of the scenarios from Terminator and Half-Life 2.

But whatever happens, I just hope I'm not around; and if I am, and if it's truly horrific. Suicide it is. :/

EDIT: By god that's depressing.

I think that's more a case of the kid's dad coming on here.

I think I've said this before, but I will be just so disappointed if the world ends like a plot in a sci-fi movie.

Yeah everyone would be looking up at the aliens destroying everything and going 'oh seriously, come on!'.

I think we'll either get hit by space debris and enter a new ice age if it doesn't destroy the planet. And otherwise we'll die when the sun explodes. That is, if we haven't killed ourselves long before then.

It's not really fair for you to be disappointed in reality just because sci-fi got there first.

I predict firestorms from lack of ozone. Or the earth getting too close to the sun. How plausible are these scenarios?

I don't think getting close to the sun is going to happen naturally. That would require a massive impact to push the entire planet out of orbit. And an impact like that would kill us all anyway.

Fox News pegs the end of the world sometime in the next 20 years;

Yeah...but that's Fox News. You gotta take everything they say like a grain of salt. But I'm sure you're intelligent enough to know that.

Only a grain?

Half a grain.

I'd take a silo.

I mean to say any 'Humanity destroys itself' scenario that was predicted by fiction.

It just makes the whole history of the human race seem like a bad joke.
