I would like to think that I would travel the world visiting monuments, collecting firearms, hunting, etc. But I'm not really sure how I would respond to such a situation. :shrug:

Read about every religion I can find. Meditate. Find every David Bowie song. See beautiful things. Make or inhabit a dream home. Make things explode. Learn to be a great swordfighter. Hunt dangerous animals. Find out if ghosts are real and then use them to keep me company.

And if I get really lucky, learn to accept my death and welcome it with open arms when it comes for me.

Um....who you going to spar with to become a great swordsman? :unsure: Oh....nvm, you can probably find a highly developed ape like on "George Of The Jungle."

Well, I'd clearly travel around after about a week of staying where I am and trying to contact somebody. I think it would take me a week or two to actually let the whole deal set in, to where I would freely move about without repercussion in my mind.

Then I'm sure I'd just start breaking into places. Although it's not really the same if nobody lives there anymore. Whatever I needed. Food from grocery stores, just walk into houses and pick through them like an archaeologist discovering how people lived. I would also figure out soon enough that the Internet was about a month away from going totally bust with no human interaction, and start hoarding absolutely all the data I could possibly manage. Hell I'd probably go into some neighborhood and set up laptops and computers and hard drives in all of the homes and start downloading just about everything I could possibly get through the pipes. Wikipedia? All of it. It's a few hundred gigs I think. Youtube? All of the videos. There are programs out there that can do this automatically. I know there are.

Once the Internet was pretty much falling apart by the seams and servers and power distribution centers went bust I'd bury all of the hard drives somewhere safe and then get out of dodge. I'd keep going into houses and inspecting them like ruins to think about who lived there. I'd also gather up video games and movies and Anime...to keep me company. There are people out there who try to marry girls in Dating Sims, and with nobody else around well...hell it's better than a volleyball.

Oh and I'd probably get a bunch of maps too. Traveling is great with GPS. I can't get anywhere without it. But those satellites and networks won't run on autopilot forever either.

How do you plan on launching and flying it yourself? Hell, anything that requires heavy lifting gear is useless.



You could find one of those six robots that the Japanese make and marry that. Tell it that if it holds out on you, you'll cut its share of the solar power.



Personally I'd probably adopt whatever animal didn't try to eat me, attempt to discover the secrets of solar power, and either move in somewhere that has solar built in or try and juryrig it myself. Then attempt to live off the land as nature reclaims everything.

Or like in real life because we're all highly developed apes anyway.

People are gone, he needs to find an ape-ape. :slap:

But we are "ape-apes" so nothing would change.

I'd likely just shut away in a high up in the sky hotel penthouse, then wonder how everyone just apparantly spontaniously combust.

I would savor the alone time for a few months, and eventually commit suicide.

Well, you go picks fleas and lice while I sit here with this nice cup of coffee then.

Oh, and don't forget to fling some poo.

None of those are defining characteristics of apes.

Maybe you meant lesser apes when you said "ape-ape"? If not, https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Hominidae.

You could set off A-bombs in towns on your horizon!

Um...yes they are? I've seen them do those things. And also watched them steal other apes/monkey/ chimps etc. babies, smash their heads open and eat their brains. Or simply just rip into the baby with their teeth. But let's not turn this into a debate, I was simply making a joke, sheesh... :facepalm:

Just because a creature uses a gun instead of its teeth doesn't mean it's not an ape.



So was I.

Alright mister, you gets the stick poking first. :meh:



:hugs: j/k

Yes! I always wanted one! ^_^

Well, I would probably be incredibly sad and frightened.

After that wears off, I would gather as many truckloads of plastic explosives I could find, and take out all the skyscraqers and monuments I can. Then I would go to famous stadiums and just stand there, seeing what it's like. I would try to figure out everything "they" have been keeping from us. I'd like to know if they know any ridiculously life-changing stuff. As someone said earlier, that possibilities are endless!

After all my fun ends, I would try to come to terms with my fate, and go peacefully.

lol...
^this.


You're weird.


Same here...
Survival training would kick in.

Since my well is drilled and has a submersed pump, and the power is going to eventually fail, I'd find someplace with a source of drinking water first.
Once water and shelter are secured, I'd hit as many hardware/hunting stores for all their 12 gauge #4, 00, 000 buckshot, and slug ammo, and .22 cal ammo too, for small game. And some .357 for my revolver.
Then I'd make a couple trips to all the area grocery stores, and fill my truck with as much non-perishable food as it could carry. And candles and matches. And bars of soap.
Water, food, and shelter.

Then, I'd occupy my self with the tasks of daily survival. Gathering fire wood, maintaining my shelter, preparing food... etc.

I liked Robert Duvall's line in "The Road", when Viggo Mortensen asked him what he would do if he were the last man alive...
"How would you know if you were the last man alive? I guess you'd just 'Be it'..."

Never knowing when the cannibals would come knocking, I'm sure I'd always sleep with my .357 under my pillow.

Angry animals.

As long as you've been here you're just figuring that out?



Ah, they're angry because I'm poking everybody with sticks. :poke:

drink all the whiskey in my county, take off my kilt, hike up a mountain and go talk to some trees for a while, after that im not sure

I'll make friends with animals & then try to contact life somewhere out there in space. Most likely fail..

First would be the fun part, like breaking stuff, playing music so loud it'll break windows, then I would get serious.

I would get my backpack and a traveling bag and fill them with supplies.

Go steal a hybrid car since gas is now even more limited, I imagine driving automatic shouldn't take me long to learn (I would also fill the car to the brim with supplies).

Go loot all the stores near me (luckily I live near a shopping center), especially the pharmacy and wine store/liquor store since those types of drinks don't really go bad for a long time. Get a bunch of gas and such.

Drive to the mall, loot there especially the hunting store and stock up on plenty of guns, ammo, bows and arrows and if they have them then a couple of crossbows (need plenty just in case they break) as well as fishing supplies and other things to catch/kill animals. Also loot the book store and tobacco store.

Go to the dog store and take a bunch of puppies to raise.

Head to a forest with plenty of animals and live in an abandoned log cabin preferably next to a river or lake and live the rest of my life with my dogs, occasionally heading back into town to grab some more supplies like ammo and cutting down trees for the fireplace and hunting/fishing for food as well as melting snow for water. I would also see if I can grow my own tobacco somewhere.

The dogs would probably keep me from going insane. Then all I can hope for after that is that I get killed by an animal or some falling tree on my cabin or something since suicide just doesn't sit well with me.

Could anyone here really bring themselves to suicide, I know I couldn't kill my self.
If I wanted to die I'd just hope I get killed by stuffing up one of my mayhem plans...
