Topic: So Nuclear Apocalypse Is Coming... Where Would You Want to Be?

Lets say in 48 hours every country in the world with nuclear capabilities is going to launch at every other country in the world

Pretty much every city on the face of the Earth is going to be targetted

Where would you go?

Find a cave out in the middle of nowhere?
At home with your family?
Military installation hoping to ride it out and rebuild?

Yes yes, I am very bored

Personally I would say "Screw it" and find the tallest building I could

If everything is going to die, I want a great view and some peace and quiet while I wait for it. Bring food, music, books... and just wait

Hell, if I get the warning, maybe jump off

Some nice weightless freefalling before I get incinerated

Got the world's largest freestanding structure 4 hours away for THAT purpose, just in case

I'll take two of anything, please. To go.

I would go to Canton Michigan, and take someone out to lunch. As I promised.

If the world goes to hell, I would take that person out to lunch.

I'd rather be incinerated in mid-fall.

Think about how cool it would be. Sky-diving into an atomic mushroom cloud (you're going to die anyway). Just as the plane loses thrust, you jump, open chute and fly down into your doom, all the while having the best view in the world.

And then you'd die, but hey.

Bingo

I would hopefully time it right (Luck? Skill?) so I get incinerated mid-fall

Going splat wouldn't be NEARLY as interesting

Grammar is your enemy! - While being able to understand someone's sentences might seem like a good idea for a proper essay, complaining on a forum scarcely leaves time for such trivialities. Write fast! You're angry, grrr! Make that show, and forget about things like capital letters, punctuation, and verbs.

I don't know how to be sexy. If I catch a girl looking at me and our eyes lock, I panic and open mine wider. Then I lick my lips and rub my genitals. And mouth the words "You're dead."

I think taking a nap in the local cemetary would be appropriate.

That, and taunting religious zealots. Ot's pretty hard to stretch religious texts to incorporate accidental nuclear missile launch as the start to the end of the world.

Well stocked nuclear bunker, with loved ones, well away from ground zero.

Those of you who want to view the blast before the shockwave comes would be dissapointed via the initial flash destroying their eyes.

I'd get to somewhere safe. Doesn't matter where it is, so long as it's safe (meaning well away from ground zero).

I'd very much like to live, thank you.

Each dot on this map is where a Russian nuclear weapon was targetted to strike:

Montana is one of the worst places you could be if nuclear war broke out, mainly because a good portion of the US nuclear arsenal launches from Montana.
