Poll question: What's the worst thing that could happen?

C'mon pessimists! Express Other by replying, please.

1. The chocolate milk you just drank out of the container? Spoiled. Jellified spoiled.

Having experienced that, I can attest that that is the worst that can happen.

[Bossy Monkey]

3. I stand corrected. n/t

6. For a minute there, I thought you were talking about a failure of the Brooklyn Bridge

I gotta sharpen up those reading skills.:)

Nice song, by the way; I don't think I'd ever heard it before.

9. There's a gamma ray burst slot on the poll, as I'm sure you saw

Hey, what if the gamma ray burst triggers the Yellowstone supervolcano? That'd be awesome! (granted, not in the good way):)

11. Worst thing to me or to the world?

Very different things.

[Bossy Monkey]

12. The general idea on all the poll responses was that the human race would be wiped out

but of course you can come up with your own reply deciding what would be the worst thing for either yourself or for the world. But I still can't help but think that a bad thing that kills everybody would sort of perforce outweigh any bad thing that doesn't. But I am a poor ethicist and or utilitarian.

13. "President Michelle Bachmann"

I think I just wet myself.

:scared:



If that happened, well, I for one would welcome our asteroidal overlords!

[Bossy Monkey]

19. To cure hiccups, I used to scare people by saying, "President Dan Quayle!"

Little would we believe that there could be somebody so much worse even closer to 41...

[JVS]

14. Some kind of maniac puts a knife through my scrotum and hollows out my junk

That would be the worst!

[Bossy Monkey]

22. Or an asteroid n/t

[redqueen]

15. The gamma ray burst.

Obviously.

:scared:

[LynzM]

16. I vote the global warming scenario.

Anything that killed all humans quite quickly (black hole, for example) would not cause long-term suffering.

Global climate change and asteriods and nuclear war and crop failure, well, lots of potential for global suffering on a scale we haven't seen in recorded history... :(

[Oeditpus Rex]

17. I figured you'd vote for a hole in the Earth

that jacks around and winds up coming out in Cucamonga. :D

[LynzM]

18. LOL

Well, yeah, there's that, too...

I could do with a direct route to Europe, come to think of it. ;)

20. HypnoToad gets married.

:rofl:

[Redstone]

21. What is happening now. It's fucking GRIM out there, and bound to get worse.
