and then there's always this scenario (humorous/NSFW). How do you think it all ends?

Plebs from the core take over due to loss of the upper crust.

Just let me know on this forum when it happens

My evil demon cat steals cash. We are not sure where he hides it. I think he buys nuclear weapons online while I am asleep and hides them in N. Korea.

When the time comes, and he leads all cats in a plot to take over the world, don't make him angry. Just give him a can of 9-lives Tuna Selects and run for your life while he is distracted.

Ooohhh... *shivers*

yep, that would break the thermostat in hell, wouldn't it?

Also, Spangler candy company ceases production of Dum-Dum suckers.
Extrapolate from there...

Assuming that the question means "how will humanity end" rather than "how does planet earth get destroyed", I'll say global warming (and resulting floods, farmlands turning to deserts, and the remaining humans battling over the few remaining areas that are suitable for living) is a likely candidate.

Global thermonuclear war (want to play a game?) could be another option - I doubt any of the big forces like USA, Russia or China will start anything stupid, but if terrorists from one of the less stable countries fire a nuke and the offended country retaliates, things can escalate pretty quickly.

Asteroid collision would also be bad - the risk of it happening might not be big, but it's happened before, and what can we do to defend ourselves against it? (flying a shuttle and nuking the asteroid works in the movies, but in real life?

)

I went for Alien's, Von Neumann's or CTRL+ALT+DEL. I just can't help but feel that if we get a foothold off of the Earth in the next few (many?) decades then planetary catastrophes won't wipe us out completely.

But then the question was about Earth not humanity...

If the question is to be interpreted as Earth, not humanity, I vote for being wiped out by aliens in order to build an intergalactic highway.

So Douglas Adams was right? That would be wild. Although I think App's cat takeover is more likely in the short run.

Everyone knows the world is going to end on December 21, 2012, (even the Mayans^w knew this - some sites refer to December 12, 2012, ie. 121212), and the world is getting warmer.

Put them together: On December 21, 2012, the galaxy-size microwave goes beep and we're all cooked.....

It was obvious really.

All I know is I'll have a birthday and then a few days later the earth will go pop - who could wish for better fireworks

Carol Haynes · « **Reply #13 on:** December 10, 2008, 07:50 AM »

What's wrong with the 21st November 2012 ?

I really like palindromes ... 211112

or Armistice Day 2011 (that would be 111111)

Actually we all know it has ended already - we just haven't noticed yet!

mahesh2k · « **Reply #14 on:** December 10, 2008, 08:41 AM »

Well what about My Friend "Galactus"

he can change everything in universe. He can even change the prediction that earth will end on 2012 as per mayan calendar

he'll end it early :p or maybe transfer humans to another planet, he's omnipotent creature

So stop thinking that earth will end somewhere.

The world will end in a kernel panic as the linux fanboys attack the windows fanboys. All this will occur while the mac fanboys are making videos making fun of the two feuding OS fanatic groups. While this is occurring, Carol Haynes will be attacking Microsoft for their poor OS quality while zaine ridling is attacking the OOXML department. At this time, mouser's college will attack him in an effort to have their one student, whom has taken the longest amount of time to get a PhD, actually complete the degree.

Oh, and scancode will be attacking motorola for not making their phones more hacker friendly.

It's either that or you and app both attack them for Windows ME. I'd say pick the easier of the two battles for eternity

Just pull an old favorite and repent when the first signs of the apocalypse are afoot. And by apocalypse, I mean when Zaine Ridling acknowledges that linux is missing a feature windows does very well and when mouser actually manages to go a summer with a completely working air conditioner.

These statements are meant in good fun and are not intended as an attack on anyone. I ask those mentioned to reply in a similar manner which might further the attempt at humor found above.

Some say the end is near. Some say we'll see Armageddon soon. I certainly hope we will.
I sure could use a vacation from this... bullshit three ring circus sideshow of freaks. Some say a comet will fall from the sky, followed by meteor showers and tidal waves. Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still, followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits. One great big festering neon distraction...

I say the world will end when microsoft and redhat and the mozilla corporation merge to form "Hyper Global Compu-Mega Net Enterprises".
