How Will the World End?

[PsychicTaco115]

In honor of the 2808th post and because I love coincidence, here's the topic:

Tell us how you think the world will end! It can be serious, silly, anything!

Spoiler: For those who want to know the reference I'm making

 

[DJjaffacake]

Not with a bang, but with a whimper.

[sub][sub]Yeah I just wanted to post that because it sounds good[/sub][/sub]

please not zombies

please not zombies

please not zombies

We will be enslaved by asians and their maniacal smiling robots

We will explode by somehow hitting the sun, or a zombie outbreak will happen.

Or we will live on another planet like those blue in avatar but with midgets and badass people, I think it's called pandora.

 

[burningdragoon]

The world as in Earth? When the sun "starts" dying and slowly engulfs us.

As in humanity? Hell if I know.

 

[Esotera]

Probably when the sun dies, but humanity is not going to be on earth for anywhere near that long. Although my favourite apocalypse would have to be something like triffids...how fucking anti-climatic would it be if a bunch of plants eradicated human civilization.

 

[Bloedhoest]

Zombies, of course.
Why would someone want another end of the planet. At least go out with some fun.

See, the japanese are going to reinstate their ninja program. The'll send people into other countries of the world to kidnap all of the healthiest babies, leaving those nations with the sick and mentally handicapped.

They will raise these kids to be pirates, contructing massive ships after 20 years of training them. The pirates will ransack entire nations that are defenseless because they have no able bodied soldiers.

Japan will hold the monopoly on food, gold, and everything of value. America and Russia will sell them their nukes in order to some of it. This will lead to Japan nuking countries they deem not worthy.

In a last ditch effort to destory the Japan/pirate alliance, the entire world will make one large army and overwhelm the island nation. Japan will end up nuking their own people to prevent being taken over.

Then there will be nothing left of earth but a few hundred starved and irradiated humans clinging to what's left of earth, until after 40 years they simply die out.

 

[Bloedhoest]

And this.

As you doubtlessly remember, somewhere in the Hitchhiker?s Guide series Mr. Adams told the story of the The Golgafrinchans, a race of people who sent their Telephone Sanitizer population away. The Sanitizers were sent along with another third of the planet?s population who were also deemed useless to form a colony on a remote planet (Earth as it happens). Of course, the remaining Golgafrinchan population was then wiped out by a virulent disease contracted via unsanitary telephones.

We must kill the world before it kills us.

 

[EstrogenicMuscle]

With you, of course. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World_Ends_with_You]

*ba dum tish*

Well, since I'm an optimist, with a supernova we've escaped from.

 

[Fractral]

We must kill the world before it kills us.

Fortunatley, thats looking extremely likely.

OT: Probably global warming/climate change. Slightly less likely imo would be a nuclear war. Alternatively, and because I've been reading a lot of Peter F Hamilton recently, the dead come back to possess all our bodies with their white fire and illusion effects.

 

[Erttheking]

In about 4 billion years when the sun goes Red Giant.

 

[SckizoBoy]

First thought that came to me was: "In a shower of cream and titties..."

Thus was this posted...

 

[Scarim Coral]

It would be funny if it turn out Yatzee was right all along due to his upcoming book "Jam!".

 

[WhyBotherToTry]

When the mole people rise to the surface to reclaim what is theirs. I mean really, the sun engulfing the Earth! You crazy kids...

 

[Total LOLige]

Google will kill us all after it has learned everything to prevent it having to learn more things we create. Or the Steam powered Megazord that Valve created blows up the earth.

Killing him won't bring back our GOD-DAMN HONEY!

This seems like a good spot to drop this...

Spoiler: Lyrics

Judgment day's upon us and I see no one cares.
Lies for death in pools of blood and I'm stoned with fear.
A trigger happy finger solves a problem not a prayer.
I see this world falling apart and I fucking swear

It is the end of days
It is the end of days
We've clearly lost our way

Revelations, dissipation, condemnation
dissolution, do you feel like you're under a gun?
Desperation, condemnation, indignation, terror nation
That's what the world is today!
Hey! Hey!

It is the end of days
It is the end of days
We've clearly lost our way

Judgment day is upon us, I don't care.
Judgment day is upon us, do ya fear?
I'm in a world of shit, I don't care!

Spoiler: Lyrics

As the future unfolds in the end of days
Judgment of our times in biblical ways
Our man made gods, genocide is faith
Idea warfare has been engaged
Cannot trust your fellow man at all these days
Sycophants out looking to get paid
Images burned into my face
Pangs of Distress salt my flesh to flay

I constantly fear everything I see
Blood is the fist of authority
Pestilence is my rabid dog unchained
Another road sign marks the end of days
I disregard those who govern me
I hate all of this treachery
I numb my mind and try to walk away
Toward the trail of tears and to the end of days

It's just the end of days.
It's just the end of days.
It's just the end of days.

(slightly louder voice)
It's just the end of days.
It's just the end of days.
It's just the end of days.
It's just the end of days.
It's just the end of days.
It's just the end of days.
It's just the end of days.
It's just the end of days.

Face down on the pavement and drunk at the end of my days
I hang from a noose that was made to slowly decay
The pangs of distress salt my flesh to slowly flay
Face down on pavement and drunk at the end of my days

The end of days
It's just the end of days
The end of days
It's just the end of days
The end of days
It's just the end of days
The end of days
It's just the end of days
The end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days

(Slightly louder voice)
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days

Speech by Eisenhower:

This evening I come to you with a message of leave-taking and farewell
And to share a few final thoughts with you
My countrymen

We face a hostile ideology
Global in scope
Ruthless in purpose
And insidious in method

Unhappily the danger that imposes promises to be of indefinite duration
To meet this successfully
There is called for
Not so much the emotional and transitory sacrifices of crisis
But rather those which enable us to carry forward steadily, surely
And without complaint
the burdens of a prolonged and complex struggle
With liberty the stake

Only thus shall we remain
Despite every provocation
On our charted course toward permanent peace

Crises there will continue to be
Find More lyrics at www.sweetslyrics.com
In meeting them, whether foreign or domestic
Great or small
There is a recurring temptation to feel it's unspectacular
And costly action could become the miraculous solution to all current difficulties

But each proposal must be weighed in the light of a broader consideration
The need to maintain balance in and among national programs
Balance between the private and the public economy
Balance between the cost and hopes for advantages
Balance between the clearly necessary and the comfortably desirable
Balance between our essential requirements as a nation
And the duties imposed by the nation upon the individual
Balance between actions of the moment and the national welfare of the future

Good judgment seeks balance and progress
Lack of it eventually finds imbalance and frustration
The record of many decades stands as proof that our people and their government have
In the main
Understood these truths and have responded to them well
In the face of threat and stress

We annually spend on military security alone
More than the net income of all United States corporations
Now this conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry
Is new in the American experience

The total influence
Economic, political
Even spiritual
Is felt in every city
Every State house
Every office of the Federal government
We recognize the imperative need for this development
Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications
Our toil
Resources and livelihood are all involved
so is the very structure of our society

In the councils of government
We must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence
Whether sought or unsought
By the military-industrial complex

The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist
We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes
We should take nothing for granted

Only an alert and knowledgeable citizen can compel the proper meshing of the huge
Industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals
So that security and liberty may prosper together


Now I am to become a private citizen
I am proud to do so
I look forward to it
Thank you and goodnight
(fade)

It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
It's just the end of days
