Vagrant0 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Not quite since you just nuked 1/3 of the world's oil supply and kicked up enough dust and debris to plunge the Earth into an early ice age and kill off or cover most of Europe, Central Asia, Russia, and Northern Africa. Nevermind the impact that such a thing might have on the volcanic and geological state of that region which could easily lead to mass-eruptions and earthquakes world wide. The problem that this solves... Is humanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would also make the world a quite boring place. Not that it's necessarily fun now, just that it has this sense of not being quite boring enough to be officially bored.

Sync182 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I often wonder what the people who say "wouldn't the world be better of without people" would do with themselves if they were made correct (assuming, of course, that they were allowed to live for an extra week, say, before they, too, were killed as being part of that collective called people...? Food for thought. :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverDNA Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 (edited) The reason it is not officially bored is that it hasn't enough overpopulation. It is socially boring because most people tend to come along always the same kind of people that always do the similar pattern of thinking. Perhaps 90% less people on that planet could change that. Another approach might be found in the old movie Silent Running from 1972. In case of me alone on a planet I fear that I would be discovered after a relative period of peace by group female aliens ... my personal horror nightmare then begins and i awake with cold sweat and think to me self "Gosh and it started all so nice!":facepalm: Edit: For better understanding of the last click on the spoiler it gives the impression of both extremes... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oh1Mhaw_Btk For English lyrics click on the spoiler: Roger Cicero – Take the shoes off!

Keanumoreira Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 (edited) http://www5.picturepush.com/photo/a/2081793/480/Picture-Box/problem-solved.jpg?v0 Congratulations, seeing as to how we broke the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons Treaty of 1968, which bans the building, distribution, and launching of nuclear weapons, which we formed and agreed to, an all out nuclear war is imminent. North Korea and China now have an excuse to nuke the hell out of us, and who knows how India and Pakistan will take advantage of this nuclear exchange. It's like the Fallout series all over again. There's a reason why we haven't dropped a sun on the Middle East, and this is the primary reason why: http://modernsurvivalblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/nuclear-explosion-in-los-angeles.jpg Edited June 16, 2012 by Keanumoreira Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyYou Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 A nuclear event is pretty much guaranteed sometime in the not so distant future. What with various unstable/belligerent regimes developing nukes (supposedly), eventually, some flavor of weapon is going to find its way into the hands of someone willing it use it. What happens from there is anyones guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marxist ßastard Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 an all out nuclear war is imminent. North Korea and China now have an excuse to nuke the hell out of usDo you have any idea of those countries' nuclear capabilities? They're pathetic. And do you really think that they both want to nuke us at any moment but are being stopped by a treaty – one which NK already withdrew from ten years ago? Why are you fantasizing so hard about "real-world Fallout" that you're willing to completely ignore reality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
