It’s The End Of The World Meme As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
A new, sobering meme created by JDC.
I was tagged by Jin.
The question is:
“You wake up tomorrow and every person on the planet has vanished.
What do you do?”
The replies are:
Day One
Week One
Month One
Year One
Day One:
HOLY SHIT.
Have some lunch.
HOLY SHIT.
Ride around a bit.
HOLY SHIT.
Dinner.
HOLY FUCKING SHIT.
Try to sleep.
Week One:
I’d probably already be stocking up on supplies. How long would there be electricity? Without people running things, how long would things keep running? I would be thinking about these things, assuming things were still running.
I’d take daily trips (probably multiple trips) in search of others. My mood would alternate between panic and a deep dark depression, I imagine.
Month One:
I start to realize think there is no one else but me. Still taking trips, scanning TV/radio. At this point I would have scrounged up a HAM radio and tried that, too.
I would be completely stocked with food (mostly canned goods) from plundering various grocery stores. I would be contemplating growing my own food as well, but might not have started yet.
Would there be animals? I’d probably like to have some kind of dog so there would be someone I could talk to. It’s likely all the animals in the pet stores I would visit would be dead (maybe not).
Year One:
I have a garden where I grow vegetables. I have lots of food and water. I watch movies, I read books. If I have a dog, I play outside a lot with it. I still check for signs of human life from time to time, but my heart’s not in it.
I exercise a lot. I get firearms and practice shooting. I try to enjoy my life. I watch sunsets.
I tag SamuraiFrog.

I would have preferred each celebrity to just say the following:
“COME ON YOU STUPID FUCKING MONKEYS, VOTE”

UPDATE:
I’m convinced there is some asshole web programmer uploading a constant stream of people not looking at computer screens, in order to torment me.
Yes, I just saw ANOTHER ad. NO MORE, I say. No more.
As Captain Picard once shouted, “The line must be drawn…. HERE!”
