Apocalypse

Post Reply New Topic

I sometimes like to imagine that some great disaster kills almost every living person on the face of the earth, and then I meet maybe one or two people and we become good friends as we try to survive together. That seems to me like one of the best ways to become emotionally close to someone, something which (for me at least) seems nearly impossible in the current scheme of things. Does anyone else have similar thoughts?

I would miss the internet...

ok, i'm with you......hope you allow for all non-human animals to survive. you can have all the rest of the earth if you let me have east central africa.

That would be kinda nice,but with my luck, I'd meet up with my MIL or SIL.
Kind of a downer, that.

Yes. Yes I have. I'm not looking for the destruction of man, just the collapse of society, though.

I regularly have these thoughts too, I love the idea of starting back from scratch in a world where, although it's physically tougher, in other aspects is actually much simpler. I love anything kind of film/book based on dystopian societies too.

If you're going to collapse society, it would be tons safer to destroy a lot of mankind, because society is what provides a lot of checks and balances, imperfect as they may be.

If all the boundaries are going to fall by the wayside, most aspies would be among the first up against the wall, so it's better if there aren't too many other people remaining to put us up against the wall.

I'd also miss the Internet. I'd miss rock n roll as well.

Sure.
