Poll question: If you learned that you were inescapably fated to bring about the apocalypse, would you tell anyone? |
|
For that matter, who would you tell, if anyone?

1. I always hate it when that happens. |
|
Tell, don't tell, doesn't matter. No one ever believes you.

If it's inescapable fate, it would be funny to watch them try to avert the apocalypse, and by doing so, possibly bring the apocalypse about with their actions.

knowing that I was the one who would bring it on, I would quietly ponder a way to stop it from occuring, as if I can start it, I could inevitably stop it or prevent it from occuring.
actually, it could have its merits by telling someone. Security, pretty much could be a ruler of the world, because I would literally have the world by the short and curlies haha.

9. I would definitely tell DU |

Of course, they'd mock and disbelieve me, but I'd expect that.

15. Mockery and disbelief are not the worst that could happen |
|
there could be unrecs, too.
Especially if you broke the news in "General Discussion"
I hate apocalypses.

I'd want the zombie virus named after me. How cool would that be?
