You are sitting comfortably at home, watching television when a news report interrupts, "Officials from NASA and JPL have confirmed that there is an object, most likely an asteroid, on a collision course with Earth... and according to the JPL, it is likely to hit us withing the next two weeks... Folks, I am just being handed... NASA officials, as well as French and Chinese space programs have issued a notice of high alert to our and their respected governments. NASA's notice i have here in my hand, is about a paragraph in lenght but once phrase... prettu much sums up the situation... "destruction of biblical proportions".
so, what would you guys do?

woops. i shoulda spell checked.
Crap myself and cry a lot. That is exactly what I would do.
Watch the best of Fraser
I'd paint a target on myself. Apparently I'd deserve whatever I get.
you might think its weird but watch will and grace. (thanks for the idea talon)
Probably... go and play video games non stop untill the end came. or get married to fifty different women and have one hellova honeymoon...
Call up the ex wife and tell her she can have the house and car at the end of the month 
I would log on to U.M. and say ha ha Jesus is not coming back! unless the fireball is jesus I feel stupid after the fact.
Anyway I would gather some freinds tell them how I really felt about them. Try one last attempt to get in bed with a celebrity, see what all the hype is about. i always wanted to drive a sports car, I would steal one and go for a good sunday riide.
Then as the end nears say good bye to my family and loved ones and get a front row seat at the destruction and laugh my ass off!
i'd stop watching fox, and switch to a reliable news network
Say goodbye to my mother and sister, grab my love and travel to the most beautiful, remote, accessable location i can find during those two weeks. Have some fun along the way doing whatever, then stay at that location until the end came, gazing at the beautiful landscapes and the beauty of my girlfriends eyes, and appreciating what time i had.
Buy some good Scotch.
Id be with my kids and parents.. 
I would spend every minute with my children..
Is it possible to die from Eating chocolate in a fortnight?

Right. Then I would drink to anything and everything...including the Detroit Lions, those non-Superbowl winning b#*tards.
I would say goodbye to my friends and family. Go to a really nice hill with a view of the countryside and lie there until the end comes but I would probably get bored so i'd take a book.
Hmm . . . Choices Choices . . .
What would I do?
I'd pack up my Girls and head for my ancestral home - spend that time with my family.

the most hollywood and at the same time realistic reply so far...
pray, eat, gather up my supplies an loved ones an head to the caverns an just keep going as deep as I can till I feel the boom. Then, if haven't blown up, suffocated, fallen into lava, or crushed between some rocks... work my way back up and see what's left.
I WOULD MAKE SURE MY GF KNOWS HOW MUCH I LOVE HER 
...if u get wht i mean..coz im only 15..i would do as many things and hobbies as humanely possible..n teach a few kids how to write songs...probably eat llooaaaddss of rice krispies

I couldnt have summed it up better.
I think I would also hack into the highest levels of the government, steal all of their secrets, and broadcast them over CNN. The people have a right to know, and I dont think the government would stop me considering we would all be dead in 2 weeks.
To be honest, they wouldn't release that kinda information until a day prior if it was a "sure thing" to avoid chaos on massive scale... and in those two weeks there'd be attempts/trials to try and avoid/stop the calamity.
If I had two weeks though, I'd probably go Grand Theft Auto on everyone.

Grab my friends and as much nuclear grade material as I can get my hands on, go to Cape Canaveral and hotwire a Space Shuttle. 
If you're going to go, might as well play Chicken with an Asteroid on the way

Steal some nukes, secede from England and create my own country, approx. 30square ft large. and take over the world. And I would erase the threat of anyone being killed by the asteroid by blowing them up myself, than I would dominate the empty earth with my trusty army of moles which will dig my way to safety.
Its a foolproof plan!

Prepare for an 'extended' winter in the house.
Spend every minute I had left with my wife and kids.

I would locate where the asteroid was to strike. Then I'd go to the safest place and find the areas local military bunker.. Later, after the asteroid hits I would head for Panama in my RV with a solar panel, hemp seeds, and Air~Water machine to repopulate the world with my girlfriend.
I'd probably tell all my friends and family that I'll miss them, and that it was fun while it lasted, and then probably stay at home and eat pizza and buy alot of things and charge it all to a credit card. And if I had the chance, and the asteroid was coming for sure, I would probably have unprotected sex

I'd steal a few fast cars, pick up some girls, drive to Hollywood as fast as i can, get drunk, loot a few expensive stores, get in a plane and skydive while having sex at the same time, steal a tank and have some fun 
, and if im not dead by then, get back home in time to spend my last hours with my family and friends.

I'd go home and sleep, Watch as much Tv as possible and say all the things I wanted to say to people who annoy me.
hey, 1000! nice.
I'd hurry up and do all the things that people keep telling me I'm to young to do.

Hey Ive got a whole tepe of it...ask Marduk and Isis...
Seriously though, i would probably just stay home and cherish my wife.
I figure if there are things you would do only if you know the world was going to end (within reason of course...no raping and pillaging), you should have done/be doing them. Why leave anything left n the table in life? The world very well could end from some celestial event...and you might miss out.
I say again........no raping and pillaging.

It's less of a tepe now, and more of a big pile of plastic bags...it rained alot today.
i would make amends with everyone i have problems with, tell my family how much i love them and how grateful i am for their support and care etc.
then grab my husband and find the safest place we can be just in case there if an offchance that we might actually survive.

this made my day. sweet.
I'd just hang around and wait for the inevitable.
Meh...no different from any other day.
Meh...no different from any other day.
Go get a bunch of people to invade Area 51 or any other area supposedly to be hangering alien aircraft and try to get my hands on one. If my plans are successful, maybe I won't have to be on the planet when the asteroid hits.
I'd max out my credit cards.
id get all the nuclear weapons in the world and aim them straight at the thing. if it works then it will explode into peices small enough to get burned up in the atmosphere. then i'll be a hero and tell everyone it was nothing, but since i did save their lives they have too be my slaves for all eternity. then id live out the rest of my days as a car salesmen or something.
I would gate crash area 51, break into the hangers at Groom lake, and abscond with one of the alien aircraft so I could relocate to a more hospitable environment.
As I am never liked ultimatums....I would get myself abducted by aliens (or hitch a ride) and leave this miserable planet to go where no abducted man has gone before....
I'd spend the time with my son, husband and family and friends.
Have a huge party - eat and drink too much and cry alot

Nobody has mentioned going to church. I'll bet the churches would be packed with sinners hoping for redemption.
don't count on it
you think they preyed for forgiveness the last time God attempted genocide of biblical proportions ?
