What would you do if you knew the world would end in a week?

I would spend all my money and go on vacations, but for the last day I would want to be with my family.

I'd observe what others would do with the knowledge that the world would end in a week.

It'd be more interesting than what I'd do, I'd witness their emotional shifts, listen to their thought processes and see how each person would grieve and who'd they ultimately grieve for, whether it be for themselves, the world, or their loved ones. Seriously that is some stuff that can't be replicated in any way and would make for some prime people watching, even if you're the only person who'd ever benefit temporarily from it. Because at the end of the world I'd like to believe you'd focus on what's truly important to you, and by watching people you can see what's the most important to them.

Make a device that destroys the threat that ends the world. To be fired right before the threat reaches us.

I would either run around in circles, spend my last days reading a book, or invent a device to prevent the end of the world or eat all the food I liked.

In an anime, I'll be the Tsundere Dark Magical Girl who likes purple MY own profile is actually HERE!

If I can't stop it, just relax and wait.

If I can, do my best to stop it.

"Did you expect somebody else?"

Quickly convert to all of the major religions, just in case.

Realistically? Kill myself.

Ideally? Try to help as many people deal with it as I can, and tell all my friends and family all the things I've been meaning to. Also order a really big pizza. Like, fucking huge.

"It's so hard to be humble, knowing how great I am."

Can I move to a different planet?

... No?

-pouts- WHY NOT YOU ONLY SAID THIS WORLD COME ON

We don't have the technology? FINE, BE THAT WAY.

In that case:

• Wordly pleasures.
• Telling people I love that I love them ("gee, thanks, Cappuccino, that makes us feel so much better in this time of crisis.")
• Relax and wait. (I'd like to try and find out a way to stop it, but, realistically, it's far more probable that I'd completely freak out.)

Assuming the internet stayed operable until the final moment, I'd go to the various forums I'm a member of and just keep posting "Last!" as long as possible.

I'd also want to make sure to tell all my friends and family everything I've wanted to say but haven't.

I'd probably hope to spend my last moments in a similar way to the end of Seeking A Friend For The End Of The World, hand-in-hand lying together with a loved one as the world falls apart.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

blow all my money on videogames, anime and food.

Steal it if i have to.

And then just relax. The world had a good run.

...well, fuck. Tell my loved ones I love them, tell my hated ones I hate them, and then wait.

I don't think I'd really want to try and finish anything I've started. It wouldn't matter in the end, would it? I'd just get comfortable, and wait for the end.

They do have medals for almost, and they're called silver!

My first thought was: "Arson." Arson, mayhem, settling things with people and companies that have screwed me over...

But, honestly, I'm not sure I have it in me to really do that, especially since destruction will mean nothing if the world will be destroyed in a week's time. Instead, I think what I'd actually do is to do everything I could to get in touch with my family again. Screw the cost of plane-tickets if the world's going to be gone in a week, I'm going home! Hopefully, planes would still be flying just for that kind of purpose, because I know from experience that driving takes a week from where I used to be to where I am now.

I haven't seen my blood family and my cousins in a decade and haven't been able to re-unite due to financial hangups. I think if the world were ending, I'd even want to see the abusive member again, just to make peace and say goodbye. I miss my family, so yeah, that would be the thing I would do.

And maybe convince my guy that we should get over our asexuality and "do it" just to see what "it" is like. We'll probably both be bored afterwards, like the true aces we are, but, it's worth a shot.

In which I attempt to be a writer.

Do all the things I'm afraid of the possible consequences of doing.

Then spend whatever time remains goofing off and having fun.

If you are not very careful, your possessions will posses you

First, I'd like to know how would the world end.

Would you not want to try to make peace with them? Especially considering such harrowing times as this could have a profound effect on people, turning them potentially toward more introspection and more acknowledgement of their prior transgressions. Likewise, I feel like most people in this kind of situation would be less inclined to just go up to people and say they hate them (though I'm certain they'd want to let their pent up frustration out in some way), and more so just want to let go of those feelings so they can die in peace. Just telling someone that you hate them? That just causes more ripples in the water, and the last thing you want going through your head in your dying moments is bitter thoughts. Most people want to die at peace.

Upgrade my computer and play Dragon Age Inquisition.

Either that, or spend all my money to a ticket and spend this week with my friends.

If we disagree, that much, at least, we have in common

Organize a last visit to Red Robin with my best friends, then drop out of school and play the shit out of my Steam library 'til the Moment of Reckoning came.

And do all of it in my Mike Wazowski onesie, because screw normality.

oh, that's why I need this binary mind // ⌘

I'd have a few things to tell a few people.

And I'd snuggle my cat a lot.

And I'd eat a lot of cheesecake, sushi, pizza, and my other favorite foods because they are delicious, I'm not gonna need the money I'm saving so I wouldn't feel guilty about spending it on yummy things, and I'm not gonna have to worry about weight if I'm gonna be dead in a week anyway.

Stupid doomed timeline...

My response to this world-ending threat: Dig... Dig deep on the off chance it's merely going to destroy the surfacedwellers and prepare for dwarven civilization as we know it.

"If you have any beefs with Santa, do remember to SETTLE IT IN SMASH!" Quote by Edveed

Pray a lot and panic.

Hey.

I'd dedicate my life to cancelling the apocalypse. If I succeed, well, the world isn't going to end. If I don't..... well, trying to save everything from destruction is the very best cause to die for, and I at least gave it a try.

"If I was a tabletop RPG character, my player would be accused of both minmaxing and overdramatic roleplaying." -Me

Die in ensuing riots, most likely :p

There's a moment we make a decision Not to cower and crash to the ground The moment we face our worst demons Our courage found

Just skip school and binge watch Tom and Jerry and probably destroy all my enemies so they won't get away with ruining my day.

Hi

Personally, I'd likely be more honest, and yet, more hedonistic.

I'd likely stay up all night on the final day, so I could see it happen.
