shit! i know what i'd want to do, but it would take me about 30 mins to get there so thats out of the question. i guess... i'd pash the nearest cute boy? any excuse.
ten minutes! Not long enough to organise anything. I just hope I'm not on the bus when the countdown starts. I'd turn the stereo up loud. Superman you're crying.
it doesn't require that much class to regurgitate what you've learned in school. people who get snobby about lettering preferences spend too much time judging others and should probably look into their own shortcomings to see why they've got such a big problem with the rest of the world expressing a little bit of free thought.
i'd go outside and watch. especially if it was going to end in a spectacular way, such as a shower of meteors. perhaps have a drink of pineapple juice and take a nice seat. why fear the inevitable?
here's a bit of extention to the topic, and a nice nod towards all the "favourite this and that" posts:
what would be your preferred method of armageddon?
- the hand of god, and a big booming voice saying "sorry, no-one really hit the nail on the head here, what a bloody waste of time. i'm so disappointed!"
- an evil scientist using a gravity beam to pull the moon into the earth
- a large slice of antarctica crashes into america setting off all of their h-bombs underground. the US is thrown into outer space and becomes a new moon. the remaining chunk of the planet is thrown into a tailspin. those that don't die from fallout or the earth's core leaking out all over the place, freeze to death as the earth plummets towards jupiter.

hi all, by the way, long time no see!
thanks for the welcome H, you're probably right :) was it the japanese film title that gave it away? i was thinking of using kagemusha but i like the imagery of hana bi better as a word. battle royale would have been my next choice :)
noizy, you've always been my favourite linker, i was quite amused to see this: "Dropping into Jupiter/another gas giant/a neutron star/etc" given my own earlier reference.

indeed. that's what sparked the memory of that page, which I'd stumbled over yesterday.
my favourite from that page is...
Destroyed by vacuum energy detonation
You will need: a light bulb
Method: This is a fun one. Contemporary scientific theories tell us that what we may see as vacuum is only vacuum on average, and actually thriving with vast amounts of particles and antiparticles constantly appearing and then annihilating each other. It also suggests that the volume of space enclosed by a light bulb contains enough vacuum energy to boil every ocean in the world. Therefore, vacuum energy could prove to be the most abundant energy source of any kind. Which is where you come in. All you need to do is figure out how to extract this energy and harness it in some kind of power plant - this can easily be done without arousing too much suspicion - then surreptitiously allow the reaction to run out of control. The resulting release of energy would easily be enough to annihilate all of planet Earth and probably the Sun too.
Earth's final resting place: a rapidly expanding cloud of particles of varying size.
Comments: unperson's quantum field theory courses suggest that the quantity of vacuum energy available from zero point fluctuations in this method would actually be infinite. Ironically, though this doesn't invalidate the theory, it doesn't sound nearly as impressive... thanks, unperson.
Feasibility rating: 5/10. Slightly possible.
Earliest feasible completion date: 2060 or so.

I guess sort of . . . but I was more just explaing that there was heaps of time for you to do more than just eat a popsicle . . .
