There is absolutely nothing good I could do with such power. I could annihilate my friends, my enemies, or even the world at large. I could try to sell it and risk incaraceration (plus, depending on the buyer, a non zero chance of spurring forth an apolocaplytic war). I could use it to extort but this would likely end in my tragic demise.
Clearly I have no use for a weapon of such vast power that it is almost incomprehensible.
My only solution is to give it up to the government. They may have no better track record of containing such power thanI would likely have, but at least I don't have to sweat over having personally annihiliated the species.

Blow something up. Probably a country. But I just can't decide there are so many equally deserving.
gah that pooping nukes reference is killing me, because I know I've heard it somewhere. I want to say collegehumor? that's probably not right, but whatever.
OT:
I would first make it public knowledge that i had a nuke, how I acquired it, and that I didn't plan to use it. Then I would offer it to the government for 3 million dollars. That way if they just take it from me, it becomes a scandal, and the public would be like "the government r doushiz! Thae took that gaiz nook awae even thoe hee was peesful and offerd to sell it to them."

I'd call someone in very, very quickly to get rid of it. I really don't like the idea of being slowly poisoned by gamma irradiation from a nuclear warhead. Let someone else deal with it.
he could never beat my laser eyes pirate (sorry the laser eye pirates thing I started in #escapist seems like I just brang it here >.>)pimppeter2 said:
but the obvious answer is chuck rocks at it... duh
I would probably take a photo of me riding on it waving a cowboy hat. (Whoo for movie references!)
But once i get bored, i'll stir up a bidding war between competing terrorist cells vying for the chance to give the free world a glowing suppository. Upon having lured them to the middle of the Mojave desert on the pretext of holding the auction, I will then detonate the nuke and ride off happily into the sunset with my sweet hat... Once the funds have all been wired to me of course...

I was thinking those same exact thoughts.MaxTheReaper said:
Then again you would have to keep the detonator on you at all times to insure they don't search your house for it and come across it. That or hide it in a spot that nobody would bother looking at just in case they happen to bring you in and Dick Cheney is your torturer.
