Last chance to evacuate Earth...

**Frownland** · 04-04-2013, 10:48 AM

I doubt that I would get a spot on the ship, and I think that experts deciding who goes on the ship as tore said would be a good route to take. It could cause some dissent in the general public, though, since a fair amount of people assume corruption when big decisions are made. Not to mention the jealousy factor. Still, I'd say that it beats a popular vote.

How would I react to impending doom? I'd like to think that it'd be hard to deal with at first, but then I would come to accept it and cherish the time to spend with my family/friends, pursue things I haven't had the chance to do yet, plunder, pillage, etc. I wouldn't go to sleep like Trollheart, although I understand why he would want to do so, but I'd prefer to see it happen. Especially if I could see it coming straight on from my side of the planet, because imagine how incredible that would look.

I know. That's how Norwegians reply to jokes. And long-winded posts is how I relax.

So you would have Will.i.am live out of spite? That'll show him.

At least this isn't a thousand years ago. Or Janzsoon would be ****ed.

Women and children, okay, but I don't think the vikings were homosexual rapists!

But yeah, we just don't know how to stop arguing. It's had a colourful effect on our past.

Well obviously I'd get chosen because they'd need a blonde to party and drink with. Plus I'm easy to look at. Except today because I have conjunctivitis and look like a gumby.

For my serious answer, I will post that shortly after I watch the doco. Interesting thread Trollheart.

Yes I would, its a karma thing. Out of spite, out of mind.

Its not set in stone, I could have my mind changed.

I don't think you quite understand the point of raping and pillaging.

Thing about animals, I don't think (anyone watching the doc can correct me if I'm wrong: I only watched it this week but hey I'm an old man and can't be expected to remember everything --- what's your name again?) that they mentioned anything about animals, DNA or otherwise. They do say we can't eat or create meat in deep space, so from a food animals point of view that looks a no-no, everyone has to eat kelp or something (another reason for staying behind: I'd rather be torn apart by the gravitational forces of a neutron star than eat kelp!) and as for pets, well, you'd imagine they'd find it hard to adjust to life on a spaceship. "Spot! Get AWAY from that airlock! NO DON'T OPEN --- OOOPS!"

Well, I'll get with a sexy macho guy who will defend my honor.
