The earth has about four years left

get drunk. then realize that the LHC cant create a black hole large enough to eat the earth. then get more drunk.

This man speaks the truth, LHC cannot destroy the earth buy way of black hole. Strangelets though, are a completely different matter. Get it? Completely different matter? No? Well I just take my physics jokes elsewhere.

Commit murder and rap.....

Something tells me what you actually said is more heinous than what you intended to say. Rap... a fate worse than murder.

Honestly, what is with all these responses from guys saying there going to go out and get laid. With 4 years left and basically no future for anyone anywhere, do you really think she wants to be your pity poke? Something tells me women are not on board for this whole "were about to die, lets do it" schtick. Honestly I dont even want to think on what would actually come of all that.

get laid
amuse myself with the idead that douches and talentless popstars also get sucked in it
binge drink
travel from Western Europe all the way to China

I'd split things into priorities.

1, Get laid (I'm still a virgin)
2, Get drunk a lot
3, Punch the person I hate the most - scratch that, Kill the person I hate the most
4, Say "I told you so" to everyone who said the world is going to end in 2012 (bogus)
5, achieve something

I do not mean to be rude, but it is strange that this would probably been my priority list were the question were asked ten years ago (though I had already punched people I hated).

Were that list compiled now, I don't know what would be on it. My current goals are too long term to be completed by then so I'd probably just opt for the high risk fast-track option on them, seeing as the long term viability of said option was rendered moot.

I don't know. The drunker you are, the less likely you are to think rationally. You might want to realise, then drink, then drink more.

But if you've realised....

You can still get drunk even if you know better.

Eat and Screw.
Uh different things for those different purposes of course... [sub]probably[/sub].

And loot, I want to live out my final years in style.

I'd abandon all social graces pretty much.

That's not happening is it? I talk a big game but I doubt I'd have the balls to pull off my goals.

 

[Lucifron]

Kill the people on my list.

 

[HardkorSB]

Actually, we have less than 4 years.
A woman gave me a leaflet yesterday.
It said that the Judgement Day is on the 11th of March 2011.
What do you think of that?

 

[Hookman]

The guys from Mock The Week talked about this a few years ago, they pointed out that the black hole wouldnt be big enough to destroy the earth quickly. Instead, the entire world would be slowly sucked towards Switzerland by a miniature black hole.

sustained Black hole which would eat the earth out

I'm sure someone else has noticed this, but this made me lol.

Anyway, yeah, no, LHC is pointless doomsday nonsense because if it even worked its still not gonna destroy us all.

Clowns will do that

I noticed it when I wrote it, made me lol as well so I kept it in.

fair dues, but you know that someone, somewhere has already rule34'd this right? You, sir, have contributed to the existence of celestial event porn.

 

[Kakashi on crack]

I'd obviously help work on repulsorlift technology to reverse the effects and create hovercrafts

Ok, its got a little longer but a potential (however extreamly rare) outcome of the LHC is a sustained Black hole which would eat the earth out in about 4 years.
If that was to happen, what would you use those four years doing?

Personally, I would spend those four years at first not changing my life too much, saving myself for the last year where I would probably be a complete dick

EDIT: I never thought it would make a black hole big enough etc, I'm not that bad at physics, I only wanted to know what someone would do with a prehaps more lenghy final moments.

First off, they failed to make a black hole, like, months ago. You're a little late to the worry train.

Secondly, technically, all black holes are the same size. Some are heavier than others, but they are all a singularity in size. Yes, that's just a silly nitpick, but whenever anyone says "big blackhole" I face-palm.

Thirdly, I'm fairly sure string theory is crap. In the past 50 years they have failed to find any evidence at all that string theory is correct. They keep trying... and they keep failing. And they keep revising the math and trying again... and failing. I'm sure there's a big picture out there somewhere to explain thing scientifically, but I don't think it has anything to do with strings. It's probably much weirder.

And finally, if they DID manage to make a blackhole that could eat the earth (again, fairly sure that's impossible) it would cause a time-dialation that would make time meaningless and tidal forces that would rip the planet apart long before it got eaten (since Relativity HAS been proven, and near/faster than light speed does in fact mess with time).

So yeah - if the world is ended by science, it will probably happen much faster than four years. Personally, I'm rooting for "so fast we never even feel it." Really would rather not spend four years contemplating the end of all life on Earth - that's just depressing.

Actually, this whole thread is depressing. **goes off to listen to Sarah McLachlan**

I would quit school, no doubt, and I would try to do everything on my bucket list that I could do in four years. Maybe I couldn't build my own house, but I could travel Europe while reading the most famous books and so on.
