GRAB SOMETHING!!!

[Kracka]

I grabbed my guitar. If I get rescued I can either use it as a club or try to sooth with lack of skill.
Otherwise I guess I'll just kinda pose and wait.

 

[Yureina]

I picked a water bottle. At least I wouldn't be thirsty. :3

 

[Mr Pantomime]

I grabbed U-tack. At Least I can asphyxiate myself before space does. Or just play with it. Whichever.

 

[ProfessorLayton]

My cell phone. I would call 911 just so they could freak out when they try to find out where I'm calling from.

 

[XIGBARx13]

Well great. I can't even drink the Gatorade I just grabbed, it's too damn cold out here... Now I'm going to die thirsty in 30 seconds. What a horrible way to go.

 

[Windsaver]

I have my glasses, so I can see the pretty starts clearly before I die...

 

[MinorInconvenience]

I grabbed my girlfriend's chest. Does that mean she comes with me or just her chest? Totally fine either way here, just curious.

I'll either day happy, or happy and sore.

 

[SixWingedAsura]

A pen.


/sob.

I'm f**ked.

 

[Wintermoot]

my laptop with probaly still the charger and ethernet cable attached I,m boned!

 

[minarri]

I guess I'd just try finishing my soup then, 'cause it's what I grabbed.

 

[tzimize]

yes, i brought back the "grab something" threads, i just had this awesome idea for one!

ok, look around the room you are now in and select something, be it an item of furniture or something on your desk, as long as it's not attatched to the building it's ok! (you don't actually have to pick it up), once you have done that, AND NOT BEFORE!!!, click on the spoiler

Spoiler: got something?

oh no! you have fallen through a wormhole and are now in deep space! and have only the object you just selected! Assuming that The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy is correct in saying that you can survive in space for 30 seconds with a lungful of air, exactly how long do you have to live?

EDIT: people have quite correctly pointed out that few thing's would help much in this situation, short of plastic bottles and scuba gear, so instead of focusing on how much time you have, how do you feel about your current situation?

Cold, and quite pissed of at the randomness of the universe. I got a pocket calculator. At least I can calculate the meaning of life while I wait to die. 7x6 wasnt it?

 

[Jeysejak]

I grabbed a Tardis (well, tardis usb hub) I hope i'll be okay...

 

[elbowlick]

I grabbed myself some big 'ol plier-type nail clippers because they were the closest things to my hand that wasn't my mouse. Unless someone in the quandrant was close enough to beam me up, or whatever the equivalent they had, because they desperately needed to trim their claws then I'm basically fucked.

Absolutely HORRIBLE! Not only so I have only 30 seconds of air, but I grabbed a watch, so I get to watch every fleeting second pass by....

That's actually pretty funny.

I know it is all in good fun to say 30 seconds, but you'd be Fudged in 0.0005 or less.
The vacuum of space + high pressure LIQUID filled bodies + the cold and radiation of space. Tehehe, 30 seconds would mean you came in at least a metal diving suit

OT: I grabbed a screwdriver... I wonder if I can dig my temples out of my head in 30 seconds or write a goodbye/love note back to Earth in blood on my shirt? I have to do something in those last few seconds, and there are some people I have to say good bye to.

I feel depressed and cold, and covered in blood by the end of it...

 

[superbatranger]

I grabbed my water bottle. If I empty it, I can use it as a makeshift breathing apparatus!

Oh, who am I kidding? I'm dead, man.

 

[Wes1180]

I grabbed my 9mm. I won't give space the satisfaction of killing me!

It's pretty bad I didn't think suicide when reading that. I was thinking bullets wouldn't hurt space that much. ARRRRRgghh, die space, die!!

I guess it is one of those days I think the of something funny before I think the actual serious matter at hand.

It's alright... I thought the exact same thing

and i'd like to point everyone to this

 

[Kermi]

I grabbed this:

So right now I'm floating in space, gripping two of the three legs of the stupidest looking side table ever. It's filled with an assortment of crap ranging from pens, assorted cables (ethernet, phone chargers, etc.) and an empty chocolate bar wrapper.

While I'm sure my last last thirty second of life will be filled with activity while I frantically sort through everything in zero gravity, none of it will be of any use whatsoever, and when my exploded and frozen corpse is found in a thousand years, it will be surrounded by a slowly expanding cloud of useless crap.


My wife on the other hand, when I put this test to her, grabbed her phone, and depending on how far away she is from a satellite, might have enough time to call a loved one, probably me, and expend her last lungful of air, screaming for help I have no chance of offering.


Especially since I am probably floating several metres away from her, wondering what I'm going to do with an empty CD wallet.

no, 9x7 which, for some reason is supposed to equal 42
