What would you do if...

[Circus Ascendant]

You wake up, and the thing you love most in the world (not a person) doesn't exist?

It just ceases to exist, it's never existed. You can remember it and all things about it, but nobody else has ever heard of it.

It can be anything - a genre of music, a style of food, videogaming, even the internet. One day you wake up and POW it's just gone. You remember everything that you currently know about that thing, but nobody else has ever heard of it, you can't obtain it in any form anywhere.

What would you do?

 

[Christemo]

commit suicide.

 

[walls of cetepedes]

Find a new favourite thing.

Or... sell the design details.

 

[Lullabye]

Find a new favourite thing.

Or... sell the design details.

pretty much this, makes the most logical sense......

 

[Sir Ollie]

Create it then make millions.

 

[El Poncho]

I create that thing again.

 

[notsosavagemessiah]

There's nothing inanimate that i love. The only thing worthy of love are living creatures. Even then, it's a select few. So the reality would be, just go on like nothing is wrong, because nothing would be for me.

 

[Armored Prayer]

Get over it or reinvent it.

you'll make millions.

 

[historybuff]

Pretty much what everyone else is saying. Recreate it and make a fortune. Then you get it back and you have money.

 

[wewontdie11]

That's impossible. I can't remember who I am if I don't exist can I?

 

[Florion]

I can't recreate it. It's school for God's sake. Who the hell would listen to me if I told them "hey, let's make this 6-hour prison where smart people make stupid people smarter! It'll be a really good idea"?

 

[Squedee]

Kneel in my backyard andd yell "KHA-------------N!" very loudly

 

[Circus Ascendant]

More like, what would people do when you start babbling about the premises of the internet?

MENTAL HOME!

He seems to have hit the nail on the head with the "re-create it" issue.

Say for example the thing that disappears is heavy metal. You get the relevant instruments and try to make a band, but nobody can understand why you would like that thing - as such you're just seen as a weirdo.

Say the thing that disappears is video games, but nobody can understand why you'd want to be doing such a thing rather than... anything else.

Perhaps I didn't make it clear - not only does the thing you love and remember not exist, but nobody wants it or cares.

 

[rossatdi]

Or... sell the design details.

Epic win.

 

[Jedamethis]

That's impossible. I can't remember who I am if I don't exist can I?

I have to think up another post now you stole mine

er...Killing Spree?

 

[bodyklok]

I'm going to jump on the 're-create it' band wagon here. It's what I would of said anyway.

 

[Kilaknux]

Considering my favourite a musical genre I'm fairly proficient in, I shall sell my own album.

 

[Jacobistheshiz]

With knowledge of it's success I would invent it and call it my own. It's videogames.

 

[Proteus214]

So if said "item" were to not exist, would it be right to assume thatOH GOD MY BRAIN!

this / 0

Have a nice day.

 

[DuplicateValue]

I can't recreate it. It's school for God's sake. Who the hell would listen to me if I told them "hey, let's make this 6-hour prison where smart people make stupid people smarter! It'll be a really good idea"?

Hey, you just sold it to me.

Leave out the 'prison' bit and you're flying. =]
