Hey, why wait for the end of humanity for that ?

Go to any Rag Week event in Colleges around the country and knock yourself out.

Why would you need guns if your walking around Ireland?:)

Because they're fun to shoot and I might get freaked out with all the drugs I'd be taking.

Get a few parrots from the local petshop and teach them some words - just to have someone to talk with! Declare myself EarthKing. Invade Meath and take over. After that...Find a sheep, then,if I want, get married to said sheep by aforementioned parrot...Spend our honeymoon night in The Bertie Suite in St. Lukes, Drumcondra. Look behind the sofa there and find lots of cash. Use that cash to buy a nice house for me and sheepbride to get on the property ladder...

Next I'm certain that suddenly people would start to reappear again. Some would be salespeople advising me to release the equity in my new house. Some would be canvassing for FiannaFail. Ah, balls! Just when I thought I had the world to myself...

They have drugs but they don't have the good stuff. Pharmaceutical grade opiates is where it's at.

I would relocate to a small hydro station in Ireland, Iniscarra would be ideal would good surrounding farm land. Use the power to create a small energized island on the surrounding network. It would take a lot of work and planning and research but would supply myself with a fuel generator in the mean time.

Acquire farm machinery, fuel and seeds and plough a small section to supply myself with fresh vegetables. use greenhouses to grow fruit. Get a goat, 2-3 cows and a dozen hens. I would adopt a number of pets, mostly dogs and a few cats to for protection, company and pest control.

Loot bookshops particularly how to do books, cant bake to save my life. Loot music and entertainment shops, supermarkets for non-perishables and medical supplies. Then somehow try to enjoy life and keep my mind active despite the crippling loneliness and longing for human company.

I would get myself a female gorilla.

I'd fart quite loudly and never feel ashamed.

First off I'd take that beauty of a white Ford Mustang from that car dealer in front of Bewleys hotel at Newlands Cross on the Naas road. Raid the curragh barracks and any military base I could find for guns, ammo etc.

I'd then scour the country to set up a self sustainable farm with generators, solar panels, live stock and the likes. Grab every "for dummies book", learn to fly a plane and hopefully plan a permanent move somewhere abroad with my new found, vast general knowledge.

If anyone is really interested in survivalism, look no further than this site:

http://www.ps-survival.com/

14.1 GB of files of instructive documents/magazine articles with everything from basic medical care to creating your own electricity!

Enjoy the empty roads and the petrol while it lasts (petrol will go off and the roads will soon be covered in green shoite and trees so you cant drive fast on them)

Do a bit of farming, bit of chainsawing (with the electric saw), grow some biodiesel for the tractor and the genny. might put up a few solar panels or just move into Iniscarra or Ardnacrusha and have free power on demand and save myself the trouble.

Hunt for a bit of meat at the weekend, to keep a sense of normality in my life

Bring my laptop to the generator, much easier than hauling a generator around :P


If there is really no electricity, I would use whatever battery power that was left in my computer to start a thread on boards about it

Hmm a hard one. I'd probably get some sort of dog to keep me company. I think first I'd probably just move into the square(<<closest shopping center) and farm as much grass as possible , drive around and shoot things/break things , read books , be naked all the time. Then just sail around the world and get stoned everywhere. Sound's fun but you'd always be missing something.

How exactly does one learn to fly a plane on your own?
Plenty of parachutes involved I'm thinking...

Get the plane off the ground. get to where you want to go and then take a parachute and jump.

I'd make loads of test tube babies and save the human race...

Ok, so you reckon you can successfully get a plane off the ground with no training.

Whats the first button you press?
How do you navigate?

I declare shenanigans on your ideas!

A boat is much more likely to succeed, though I'd be taking the train myself.

get my uncles house grow a few crops and over time read every book i can i maybe the last man alive but least for once id be the smartest man in the room

cloud493

I don't I'd immediately go mental and start driving mega cars and stuff. I'd always be afraid that if I did, and I got injured then I wouldn't have anyone to fix it, and thus I'd just kill myself.

I'd raid the local shops for food, smokes, get some guns/ammo, read, learn how to get electricity and what not.

What do you do? Everyone just disappeared. There's no bodies or anything, they all just vanished.

This might be very different for some if it weren't for that bit.

Personally, I'd go to Dublin Zoo and open the cages There's nobody to feed them, or people's pets, so I'd give them a chance. Much like the Army of the 12 Monkeys.

Then I would eat all the tasty things while they were still fresh.

Finally I would hop into something nippy at the airport and see if I could get it off the ground and slam it into Liberty Hall.

So, I'm the last person in the universe? I would ask, of all the countless galaxies, of all the possible infinite amount of planets...why us? (rhetorical btw)
