There has been a lot of talk lately about the end of the world with the LHC (turned it on today- beams have run through but they haven't done collision yet). Most of it is just joking and I personally don't think anything will happen, however, I'm not here to talk about if it will or won't be the end of us.
What would you do if you learned (say in the middle of your day) the world was going to end in 12 hours? Last words? Last act? What would be your last mark?
What would you do before you go?
Edit: I need to make clear that this isn't about the LHC. It's just what prompted the thought

None.
Go completely insane -- calmly, that is -- Complacent. Laugh at everybody who's running around and screaming, while accepting the inevitable.
None.
i would go have sex lmao
its not going to happen.
Although some individuals, including scientists, have questioned the safety of the planned experiments in the media and through the courts, the consensus in the scientific community is that there is no basis for any conceivable threat from the LHC particle collisions.
I didn't say it was. I said this isn't about whether or not it will or won't happen.
None.
Lol, this. I would tell this girl I like how I feel about her...And then...I can't say it because children younger than I use this site.
Im just going to go and tell everyone theirs a chance they might die during our lunch period today, it will be F'ing sweet.
wondering though, if we were to all get sucked into the black hole would it be at an instance? or would it take like 5 minutes were we get stretched and shiz? will pain be involved?

:C
None.
As SuperCharged Volt would say: "RAPE TIME!"

I doubt anything will happen. If something does, its not going to be a black hole though. It would take thousands of years for a mini-black hole to get enough mass and gravity to even begin to threaten the earth. It seems some people fail to realize that a mini-black hole does NOT have the same gravitational force as a full sized one. Black holes are created by stars collapsing on themselves, not in a laboratory. Besides, nature supposedly does this kind of LHC experiment all the time.
Of course I may be wrong about the black hole thing, but that's just my opinion on the subject. Time to go find people who actually think this will end the world and make bets for lots of money.
If anything cool is ever going on Skype me up under the name "blarghle"
Certainly we've all seen this by now.
"Parliamentary inquiry, Mr. Chairman - do we have to call the Gentleman a gentleman if he's not one?"
If the LHC goes bad like people keep saying, then we would all be dead before anyone knew what was going on.
Yeah. It would be like the ending of The Sopranos. Cut to black. No explanation.
None.
All the little things you worry yourself with would suddenly not matter to you at all. Makes you wonder why you worry in the first place.
I can accept death, it's not that big of a deal.
None.
Aw man, I don't want headcrabs.
None.

Personally, if the world's end were presented to me in some absolutely undeniable manner, the only response I could imagine is going into a depressed or maniacal state over all the crap I had wanted to do over the next few months.
But this is kind of really, really far off from anything I, or almost certainly any of us, have experience with anyways, so bleh.
None.
Sex, kill anyone I thought I should kill for the sake of humanity (now I'll kill them for my personal pleasure), more sex.
None.
You would think that you would lose your inhibitions if you knew extermination was imminent, but I wonder how many of your prior expectations you would actually hold on to. For instance, if there were only, say, 24 hours left, then money wouldn't be of much use. But I wonder how many people would still do things for money at that point.

I think that all the subconscious will rise to the surface: sex, rape, murder, admitting love, lies, etc. So if someone had a really strong dream of earning X amount of money, they will steal, kill and do whatever they need to get closer to their goal in those last hours of their existance.
