I would travel the planet and gather all of the atomic bombs. Then I would put them in one place with a detonator. I would place myself on a high vantage point overlooking the site...from as safe a distance as I could. Then I would set them all off and take a picture of it. Before I died of radiation poison I would try to frame it and hang it on my bedroom wall. While working up to this activity...as it would take several years to execute...I would amuse myself with taking lots of acid as often as possible.

A warrior is tuned to survive, and he survives in the best of all possible fashions." ― Carlos Castaneda

Virus. You were the only fool that was immune. Those houses all belong to you now.





no one has said that they would try to be remembered
i'm sure some of us, considering how many of us ther are that has this drive, might do their best to create something or erect something that would be nearly everlasting, if not for themselves, then for all humanity. who would the audience be? god, aliens, time, the other...any comfort except the dreaded emptiness/simpleness of the physical universe.

our personalities would be radically altered. ego with no social bars. in the social context, even misanthropes or hermits define themselves in contact with others, without that contact perhaps you'd start compensating, taking on traits of all the people you've known, even traits you don't like, instead of avoiding the traits you despise.--what would i am mean any more, other than, the last, the only?

i still don't know what i would do. probably go on for a while at least. all the resources are available to do so many things without having to pay, work or save-for-later/others. i suppose there are animals so you have companions in pets, so the loneliness might not be so horrific.

Probably get myself a BIG house, set up fake people like will smith from I am Legend. And try not to go crazy.

What it boils down to though is i probably would go a little crazy.

Do you think you would eventually go crazy? Lets say you would live for 20 more years.

I'm thinking I would probably not go crazy.

I've spent my whole life trying to come to terms with the reality around me, and I seem to be getting better at it.  I think I'm getting less insane.

The question is, is it the existence of other people that keeps me sane?

crazy good, or crazy bad? :wink:

i'd probably experience ego loss from the long periods of silence, and it would happen over a lenthy period of time i would imagine.  but in the end with some light in mind this would be a transformative and enlightening experience, as opposed to some feared and deranged mentality.

I feel so isolated from humanity that I don't think I would miss them in a bad way. I would miss Veritas and a couple of friends but if I could have some of the quality dogs I have had in the past that would do. Studies have shown that having a pet prolongs life and emotional health. Then there would be nature, books, exploring the ruins. Not to mention survival.
