The End Of The World


Revolver

Recommended Posts

So, tomorrow is the end of the world.

What things do you wish you had the chance to do but won't be able to?

Pretty much everything I've got planned for the next six months. But given how f'cking rad the last year has been, I'll go quietly and without fuss should anything nasty go down tomorrow.

Not that it is, of course. The Mayans didn't predict the end of the world. It's just that these days people with boring lives who need conspiracy theories and soaps and Jade Goody and shit like that can spread this tripe around on the internet. And other people with equally boring lives can fixate on it and think that because someone on the internet said it, it MUST be true.

Actually though it'd be good for more people to think about their answer to the question you posed. Lots of people will put off the things they want to do until it's too late (or they win the lottery, or someone else makes it happen for them), so sitting there for a second and thinking, if I had one more month, what would I do, is a worthwhile exercise? But following that, we have to ask, how many people will, upon waking up fit and healthy on December 22nd, actually go out and do those things? Very few.

Yes! And if everyone wrote down what they wished they had done before the world ends tomorrow, when it doesn't end we can prod them into making something of their lives.

I personally already have a list of 50-odd things that I want to do, so if the world doesn't end tomorrow I'll count myself lucky and crack on and do some.
