Button Pushers: It's still a bad move. A loss can be defined as anything that could merit some sort of positive effect on anything else disappearing. With humanity erased, all of the potential that our kind possesses would be destroyed. It would merit no result, but would essentially be equal to killing an entire family, and hiding the bodies. Sure, no one's there to question it, but it's still a bad move. Really, there's no point in destroying the existence of a species for no good reason. Everything has about an equal impact on the world (in some way, over some amount of time) so erasing us would just lead to some other species dominating and evolving to our level.
I would. because i wouldn't believe it and ill press the key to check it out.
[QUOTE=-ZeeBo-;27408103]Would you? I would. Don't get me wrong, I'm not suicidal or anything, but it would be just easy. As if we had never existed.[/QUOTE] That causes a paradox. If we never existed, what pushed the button?
You wouldn't even know you've pressed the button as soon as you've pressed it... I don't think you understand that you can't even imagine what it would be like to die or not exist anymore. Because it would be like nothing.
[QUOTE=Archonet;27419400]That causes a paradox. If we never existed, what pushed the button?[/QUOTE] If we never existed then the button never existed either. There is no paradox. Just a complete and utter lack of humans.
If it had blown up the earth, yes. If only humanity simply vanishes, no.
Gonna press it. Wish me lu-
Better Nate than lever.
[QUOTE=shatteredwindow;27420914]Better Nate than lever.[/QUOTE] That joke. WAS AWESOME.
[QUOTE=-ZeeBo-;27411789]How is it a loss if there would be no one around to care?[/QUOTE] what about all the non-human life that relies on humanity for survival it would all die you're fucking stupid zeebo
I like living. I'm sure there are millions of other people who do. It would be an incredibly selfish move.
If there was an option to choose who I wanted to save with like a 100 person limit then yes, I'd wipe out everyone.
Fuck no [QUOTE=-ZeeBo-;27408103]Would you? I would. Don't get me wrong, I'm not suicidal or anything, but it would be just easy. As if we had never existed.[/QUOTE] Are you Ryu-Gui? Because this is something he would make a thread about
Kinda sad to think that ending the human race with the push of a button is possible tanks to mister nuclear bomb.
[QUOTE=Archonet;27419400]That causes a paradox. If we never existed, what pushed the button?[/QUOTE] Sorry, rated you clock, meant to rate dumb. It's kinda like if someone commits suicide by shooting him in the head and then we try to find out who did it we could say "well it surely is not him because he's dead so he couldn't have done it!" [QUOTE=Kalibos;27421121]what about all the non-human life that relies on humanity for survival it would all die you're fucking stupid zeebo[/QUOTE] Only problem is that there are no animals that rely completely on humans to stay alive (that I know of), you are a fucking retard kalibos. Imagine if there was a species that would completely rely on a human to survive, where and when would've it come to existance? [QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;27425066]Are you Ryu-Gui?[/QUOTE] No. [QUOTE=zombini;27425612]Kinda sad to think that ending the human race with the push of a button is possible tanks to mister nuclear bomb.[/QUOTE] I'm not talking about some bomb or virus to kill all people, what I'm trying to say is the button had been pressed we would never had even existed at all.
You've got to have issues if you seriously answer yes.
I get what you mean, OP, but life is fun.
No. What am I? Fucking retarded or something? Delete myself, my family, everyone I've ever liked or cared for, anything humanity has ever accomplished, every other person in the world? How is that a good idea?
[QUOTE=JurajIsNotPirat;27426469]I get what you mean, OP, but life is fun.[/QUOTE] Yes I do think so too [editline]15th January 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Banned?;27426487]No. What am I? Fucking retarded or something? Delete myself, my family, everyone I've ever liked or cared for, anything humanity has ever accomplished, every other person in the world? How is that a good idea?[/QUOTE] You wouldn't be around anymore to care, and no one else would either. That's the point I'm trying to get across.
[QUOTE=-ZeeBo-;27426451]Sorry, rated you clock, meant to rate dumb.[/QUOTE] You can rerate him by reloading the page.
:frog:
No, I wanna live.
[QUOTE=-ZeeBo-;27411669]There is no benefit, and there is no loss because the second you press the button everything ceases to exist. Also, on a second thought maybe I wouldn't press the button but I could consider pressing it.[/QUOTE] There is loss because you lose the pros of living life. You also lose the cons but the pros outweigh the cons so...
[QUOTE=-ZeeBo-;27409233]What I meant with waking up early is that all these shit things in life, not just waking up early. I mean every shit thing in your life wouldn't matter since you would cease to exist. And "Waste all those years of evolving. " doesn't matter since there would be no one around to think that way. And the world isn't as pretty as you would like it to be, there's war and suffering everywhere. Those who have a clean water supply is just a small percentage of the earth's population. A lot of children are born to live in poverty, get abused and shit like that.[/QUOTE] I don't know about you, but I'm enjoying my life. All the bad shit that happens just makes it more interesting, and makes it more rewarding when something good happens.
[QUOTE=kirderf;27429205] All the bad shit that happens just makes it more interesting, and makes it more rewarding when something good happens.[/QUOTE] So you think it's interesting that small kids get raped?
I'd go the Dr. Evil way, but slightly more safe. I'd hollow out all the circuitry so all that is left is the button. Then go to the UN building and say: "Gentlemen. In a few hours I will activate this button (shows picture of button) which will destroy all humans and cause Terrible Terrible Damage unless you give me... One...Million...Billion......Quadrillion............Ferfillion...............Yen." And if they think i'm bluffing, when the time comes i'll Launch all North Korean Nukes at remote places while pretending to push the button.
Depends on what mood I'm in.
[QUOTE=-ZeeBo-;27429425]So you think it's interesting that small kids get raped?[/QUOTE] How does that make [B]you[/B] want to basically suicide?
I really hope OP won't be in any position of Power in the future. also no, I love life and living.
[b]YES!!![/b] That would be the utlimate FUCK YOU to God, if he even exist, oh well better safe than sorry. :v:
