you and two of your friends were sitting in a coffie shop playing a board game (any game it doesn't really matter) when someone suddenly burst through the door and said, "I just saw the news; nuclear war has been declaired; the whole world is going to be destroyed in thirty minutes!" - What would you do?
I'm looking for a specific answer - if you're the first to get it, I'll give you 10 points and a luncheon with the second coming of The Flying Spaghetti Monster.

I would first find out if it's true. There are a lot of crazy people around. If there is going to be a nuclear war, I would probably try to find some place relatively safe. I'm not going to take the guy's word for it that the world really is going to be destroyed. Nuclear wars are survivable.

Check my cell phone for news, look outside, call my wife. If I've only got thirty minutes, what else can I do? And if my only sign of nuclear war is that person bursting through and saying it, well, there probably isn't a nuclear war, because if there was, I imagine it would be very, very, very obvious that something was going on (sirens, etc.)

I believe that my first step would be to seek independent verification of the first message, even at the expense of two or three minutes.
However, if the "someone suddenly burst"ing was subsequent to other sources, I'd ask him/her to please keep it down and let me enjoy my game and coffee.
This IS a specific answer, so do I get the "big 10"? Thanks so very much in advance.

Having complete and total Faith in my Eternal-beingness and comprehension that my physical being-ness is mortal and soon to end, I would use those last thirty minutes to experience what I've come to enjoy most in this physical life - chocolate and sex. Though, I'm not too sure which I would do first!

I'd use the time to do things I've always wanted to do: streak around, do naughty things in a public place, just go nuts. After a few minutes, no one would remember it anyway.

I'd whip out my butterfly knife and throw it at him. Clean the blade and go back to my game.
