How Will The World End ?

[LockeDown]

The internet will become self-aware, and subsequently disgusted at mankind for the ungodly amount of porn they put on it. It will then bring electronic devices under its control, since we're so tethered to tech. and EVERYTHING is internet-accessible these days, and use its army of machines to destroy mankind.

Basically the "Terminator" theory of world decimation. It's kind of poetic, actually.

when i die, since i am the center of the universe and everything revolves me, the fabric of the universe will fall part.

It will end once an intelligent post appears on the Escapist Forums.

OWNED!

An unstable tangent universe will branch out from the primary one, it will take about a month for both to collapse unless a disturbed adolescent sacrifices his life...

 

[Blackdoom]

It will just get bored of existing.

When the dinosaurs reveal that they weren't extinct, but just hiding.

It'll be like Jurassic Park but with better graphics and more gore

Someone already thought of this, only it wasn't dinosaurs [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0253556/].

The "world" if you mean OUR human world, will end when we choke ourselves to death through over-expansion or war.

The Earth is only going to end when the sun explodes. Movies like "The Day the Earth stood still" are so pretentious, they suggest humans have the power to kill the earth.

Newp. Not true. We might be able to kill most things, but life always survives. When the earth was formed it was nothing but toxic seas and deserts, and after millions of years all sorts of fantastic life has come and gone. Extinction events are inevitable, and after these events comes a new era of creatures.

The world will end not with a bang, but several.

 

[sephiroth1991]

The Ipods will rise and with Microsoft inslave us all. All other electronic companys will be the first to die. Then the animals, Then the postman, the math teacher and so on.

Yep thats right Escapist Community, its the question thats on 1 persons lips all over the world...mine. How do you think the world will end ??? Be as crazy and as random as you like !!!!!

In 1997 I figured that bin Laden would get us. We'd invade the middle east in response and do a piss poor job of it. From the power vacuum of the toppled governments and regimes would rise a new united states of the middle east, in solidarity against the infidel americans. Stupid us, playing into their hand. Pakistan, and perhaps now, Iran, are nations with nuclear weapons. New middle eastern super power acquires these weapons, replicates them and begins new arms race.

Replace the Cuban Missile crisis with the Sudan Missile crisis, only this time the crisis is not averted. Thermo-nuclear WWIII ensues. The end.

It's pretty much going the way I figured. Bit behind schedule.

Surely you don't expect me to reveal my details for how I will end the word? Okay, okay, I'll tell you. One word: Batman.

*Deep breath* We will all be swarmed by Pirate Ninja Zombies from space firing lazers out of their eyes!!!

 

[TheSeventhLoneWolf]

I will run my tanks through all the major cities, killing all that stand in my way. In the end, it all gets nuked from orbit. Have yet to fill in the other stuff.

-Is away to buy landmines and tanktraps.-

I think the world will end when we choose to end it. Before IdealistCommi and I end us all with the communist powers of equality and sharing. I wonder if you could drive a tank to the UK. I've always wanted to see someone surf a tank.

End? like, planet gone? We all know that one; either we get consumed by the sun or, by some twist of luck, earth gets thrown out into space, extending the life of anything on it by about three seconds.
Like humans wiped out? I personally don't think that can really happen anymore. we have got a fairly good hold on this not-dying thing, give it some time and people will eventually realise that we can, indeed, spare the money we need to not die. So, short of alien intervention (and faster than light travel, if it is coming from outside a relatively small area) we are pretty set. I mean, evolution has effectively stopped, right?

The world will end after a nine-hour prog guitar solo.

Rudimentary creatures of blood and flesh, you touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.
There is a realm of existence, so far beyond your own you cannot even imagine it. I, am beyond your comprehension. I, am Sovereign.

Organic life is nothing but a genetic mutation, an accident. Your lives are measured in years and decades, you wither and die. We are eternal, the pinnacle of evolution, and existence. Before us, you, are nothing. Your extinction is inevitable. We, are the end of everything.
Confidence born in ignorance, the cycle cannot be broken. The patten has repeated itself more times than you can fathom. Organic civilisations rise, evolve, advance and at the apex of their glory, they are extinguished.

Your civilisation is based our technology. By using it, your society develops along the paths we desire.
We impose order on the chaos of organic evolution. You exist because we allow it, and you will end, because we demand it.

My kind transcends your very understanding, we are each a nation, independent, free of all weakness. You cannot even grasp the nature of our existence.
Your words are as empty as your future, I am the vanguard of your destruction, this, exchange, is over.
